[tde-users] Re: Search engine other than Google’s?

said E. Liddell: | Pick your poison: | | Chrome, Chromium, and all their forks are tainted by Google (Brave | just doubles down on it by adding a second layer of untrustworthy | obnoxiousness). | | Firefox is managed by people who are more interested in chasing | Chrome's market share than producing the browser their current users | actually want. | | Vivaldi is (as of the last time I checked) at least partly | closed-source. | | Waterfox was sold to an advertising company a couple of years ago. | | Opera is also owned by an advertising company. | | Seamonkey doesn't seem to have much new development taking place. | | Pale Moon has some *really* *obnoxious* people in its infrastructure | and development community, and makes no effort to restrain them, | even though they actively discourage new people from getting | involved. | | Midori and other really small-user-share browsers tend not to have | enough people working on them for their futures to be secure. | | Conclusion: they all suck, one way or another. Well, Lynx it is, then. Wonder if they ever finished that project to render porn as ascii art . . . Actually, Lynx is good to have, because it lets you browse when X has failed. Though I do think it was a little presumptuous of them to link their executable with www-browser. Not that anyone ever types www-browser at a commant prompt. -- dep Pictures: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/depscribe/album Column: https://www.athensnews.com/opinion/columns/the_view_from_mudsock_heights/
