Firefox offers a real alternative to chrome derivatives. I think it’s what we need to go for too.

I’m not that surprised. I believe it costs less on itself but there might be a surcharge for installation.

Nothing in this message indicates that is the case.

Orrrr drink a ton of it!

All you said might be true. But still, ads work. So well even that we run millions of websites from their earnings. Don’t even start on shows and sports. It’s insane.

How is it different or better?

How can it be a skill issue if you did nothing?

It’s over 9000 by now.

In theory it is a horrible idea. No port like this ever works out. An incremental approach has much higher chance of success but will take long.

It’s perhaps a communication problem, where the privacy settings should clearly state this. Or these settings shouldn’t be offered. But maybe this current structure is fine for most people?

Regardless, it’s how existing social media used to work. In that sense, federated social media can’t offer an alternative and that could be a problem for some.

The wording can be improved, I think “maximising profit” would fix it. Which is obviously what OP meant as we all understand it.
