Pretty good article, went into some technical stuff, which surprised me as in Linux world I'm used to articles discussing changes in wallpapers between different distro releases :D
Wow, have they just realised that not every single thing computers do is actually useful to anyone? I think screens that show things when nobody's looking cost a lot more on a global scale.
Naah, boring
So... the US government doesn't have to fund it anymore? So that is an advantage for them in this situation, what is the disadvantage? Or was that their goal all along?
It reportedly works entirely on your machine (as it meant to be privacy preserving by default). So it will probably see only the data you can see.
Maybe because it is, an article says later "Saltiness aside" 😏
I kind of understand your frustration, because it is indeed neither true E2EE (some server holds encryption keys) nor interoperable (you need to use Google service), but let's remember that is it is meant for businesses, not private interpersonal communication. So the goal is not strictly "no one should be able to read this except Alice and Bob", but rather "no one outside Alice's and Bob's organizations can read this message". We all want to live in an ideal world that mails are encrypted using some PGP-style protocol, but as an article points out - this is just nightmare to set up.
Forgejo is such a terrible name 🙄
This should also be part of git repo (but maybe not downloaded through typical git clone as it might be too large though). Has developers of git ever considered doing this?
To be successful, Firefox should not only try to keep up with the competition, but also offer some unique features that would attract new users.
I agree that LLMs are overhyped, but in my opinion they are quite good at summarising text. We all hate clickbait titles, and this feature has the potential to actually combat them. And what's unique about Firefox's approach is that it's truly private. No other browser offers this.
