Orion is not a paid browser. Kagi, however, is a paid search engine, and Orion was made by the Kagi team. The browser is completely free and is in all Apple OSs (coming to Linux soon) and gathers absolutely no data. And the browser comes with no search engine chosen by default so it isn’t really an ad for Kagi.
I personally think it’s amazing especially how you can have both Firefox and Chrome extensions on it. Its only issue is it being proprietary.
@SrMono isn’t bluesky also US owned
Ecosia also has a browser for Android and Windows/Mac. Just not Linux. Vivaldi is great for Linux.
I would recommend deezer over Spotify. Spotify enables Rogan and all his bullshit
Qobuz! It pays artists the best out of any streaming service appartenly
How is deezer these days? Last time I used it is many years ago.
edit: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Access_Industries Access Industries owns Deezer. They invest in the US and Israel and have donated millions to republicans in the past.
Or Qobuz (both are french)
Why does nobody ever remember about the Vivaldi browser?
It’s also chromium based. But other than that it’s european and a pretty cool browser!
Well, certainly not nobody, I hear it mentioned quite often on the internet! Just make sure to keep talking about it, if you want it to get more popular :D
can anybody explain why people hate on Waterfox? I’m using it for over a year now and it’s been great so far!
I think it’s about none of Firefox forks being slightly capable of evolving on their own. So any large scale push to leave Firefox for any of these forks might only hurt Firefox which would in turn hurt its forks.
My insignificant opinion on the matter is that it’s great to have different flavors of Firefox that might be better suited for you, but it doesn’t appear to lead to a solution to the underlying issue.
I would be more interested in why they didn’t go with LibreWolf?
Both Tuta and Proton have a free tier for their email. Also, I think Infomaniak’s kmail might be an even better replacement for the typical email/cloud providers than the aforementioned, for normies at least.
Is it possible to set up a signal server, or is it not completely FOSS?
It isn’t at all. It is closed source powered by an American non-profit organization. You can consider this organization as
friendly.They recurrently said, they would shut the gates if U.S. government/law wants them to store more than metdata (phone number+last activity date) they are storing.
So noodlejetskis comment below is wrong?
Thanks for the info BTW, I’m an avid user and proponent of Signal (best out there today eh.)
@Valmond @SrMono Most popular out there and one of the easiest to set up / easiest to convince non-tech users to switch over to. Not the best… For me, that award would go to Matrix / Element.
Threema would be second (and should be first), but many will balk at the shocking fact that they dare to ask money to contribute to their development and operation costs…
What about SimpleX Chat? Comes without identifiers, is open source and not located in the US. Relay Servers are located in Germany, UK and Sweden and it’s possible to host your own. Last audit was in 2024. No metadata is stored. Fundings are handled very transparently and presentated on the Website.
Not meaning to advertise it, just genuine interested in other peoples opinion.
you can set up your own server for your own needs as far as I know, but you’ll probably have to build your own version of the client to connect to it. there’s no decentralisation.
Last time I read here that Tidal is American. Which is it then?
There’s also the free ksuite mail/drive as a free email alternative!
