No she isn’t, she’s launching a propaganda tool and/or a scam. Don’t give her free advertising. Ignore it and move on.

FYI it can take up to 3 years to bring enough nutrients and biodiversity to a patch of land to get really decent harvests, so if you haven’t started already now is the time to. Good luck, and may your potato harvests be bountiful!

The Greens or Lib Dems

And that right there is an issue. Because now the left will be split again amongst multiple parties instead of 1 with a chance of winning anything. We’re doomed to repeat the same dumb mistakes and hand power to the Tories or Reform all over again.

The Lib Dems have shown themselves to be ineffectual and Labour are not left wing.

The Greens aren’t perfect but if there’s to be any chance at a left wing government any time soon we (as in, anyone on the left) need to wake up and realise that the only way that is possible, is by all supporting one party instead of multiple. One party that supports proportional representation and can effect genuine positive change to our voting system, so that in future we don’t have to hold our noses, play games, and vote for a party that isn’t necessarily our perfect choice.

Why are border police looking through phone messages?

Why/how are they even able to do that?

Arrested for protesting, keeping their head down, or trying to live their life outside of mainstream capitalist society is my guess.

The left have been the targets of successive governments and vested interests, in most countries, for over 100 years. No wonder it’s dead. Not to mention the infighting. Some of which I’m sure is natural but some of which will be instigated by those same governments and vested interests.

Ah, I see, you’re a contrarian who just wants an argument. That’s not really my bag so this will be my last message.

Yes, the likelihood of the average person downloading Librewolf is slim. Using or not using Librewolf doesn’t make someone lazy. Not reading and toggling every setting in Firefox doesn’t make someone lazy either.

You’ve just explained that to make Firefox secure you need to watch some video of someone that you hope knows what they’re talking about. What if they miss something? What if they’re talking shit? I know, shocking, people lying on the internet, but it happens.

Firefox is a big name browser used by many people of varying backgrounds and technical ability. It should be secure by default. It is not. Librewolf I recommended to anyone reading this thread, which is probably someone tech savvy enough to try a different browser. But not all people are that tech savvy.

The root issue is Firefox not being secure by default. If there was no profit motive for Mozilla it likely would be.

The problem is not laziness, that’s what a nerd whose hobby is computers would do. The average person is not searching for videos to learn how to toggle the settings of their web browser, ffs. Firefox should be secure by default.

That asterisk is a problem though, having to go through and make it secure is an issue. What if you miss a setting? What if you misunderstand a setting? None of it is particularly upfront and easy. It doesn’t ask you when you first install it to set this stuff up, it encourages you to just get stuck in and start using it straight away.

It’s not too complicated for a nerd whose hobby is computers or someone who has studied computers, but for the layperson it’s too much.

That’s why Librewolf is so good. It’s secure by default, with all the settings toggled to privacy and you can ease that off if you wish, for convenience or whatever.

Firefox essentially can’t seem to decide if they want to be FOSS or capitalist, that’s an issue.

I started quoting relevant parts but there’s so many different ways they get rid of waste that it got silly.

In a nutshell (lol): sap, leaves, petals, fruit, dead wood inside the tree, and root excretions are all kind of tree poop in their own ways.

They’ve always existed in some way or another though.

Which pub you went to, which newspaper you read, which TV channel you watched, they all created echo chambers and bubbles in the past.

At least with the Fediverse we’re more likely to break out of it due to various instances showing up in our feeds. Various viewpoints being visible. The Fediverse is still in it’s early days so it’s still a bit monoculture with the likes of Linux and anti-capitalism but that’s changing now. We’re seeing more and more different takes on different topics as time goes by.

Which is?

If by explaining you mean hand waving and saying it’s fine because it’s in legal jargon instead of plain English then sure, you did a great job of explaining 👍

The problem with that referendum was that unless you can confidently and clearly explain why a change is better than the status quo then people tend to stick with what they know.

The offer in that vote didn’t clearly show an improvement to FPTP. The question wasn’t “should we enact proportional representation or not?”. The question wasn’t “Of these five voting systems which would you prefer?”

The question was “At present, the UK uses the “first past the post” system to elect MPs to the House of Commons. Should the “alternative vote” system be used instead?”

The alternative vote system doesn’t really have any obviously huge advantages over FPTP. It doesn’t offer proportional representation.

This short video explains it well:

Obviously, any improvement is better than no improvement but people tend not to like change so you have to very clearly state what they will gain from changing. And that didn’t happen.

This playlist has a few videos explaining voting systems if you’d like to learn more:

Holy wild speculation pulled right out of your arse, Batman!

Scroll down to Excessive Executive Pay.

Mozilla has zero financial issues. Mozilla is a non-profit that is actively investing, and receiving dividends and interest in return. A nonprofit that is generating millions in revenue for essentially nothing and paying their executives fat stacks. They have zero reason to need to do this beyond greed and disregard for their user base.

Oh legalese! The language used to explicitly state what people can and cannot do, specifically stating they can do what they want? Oh that’s okay then. If it were in plain English I would be worried.
