ublock origin does not have this disclaimer. It works well and is widely trusted.

If you’re using Mozilla’s level of endorsement as a metric, note this prominent disclaimer on the addon’s page:

Yep. It works and it’s awesome. I use conversations on android devices and dino and gajim on desktops, various family members use siskin on iOS.

With zero app or server-software or provider lock-in, and an actual in-practice diversity of apps and providers, the whole thing seems pretty immune to enshittification.

What then? Maybe 98% supports + 2% doesn’t support the genocide?

That 2% because a genocide might be a bit inconvenient with an election coming up?

[alt-text for the vision-impaired] Image appears to be a twitter post from Craig Murray posted on 2023-10-14: “To be entirely plain. I have always viscerally opposed war. I have dedicated my life to conflict resolution and reconciliation. But in the coming Gaza genocide, every act of armed resistance by Hamas and Hezbollah will have my support. If that is a crime, send me back to jail.”

Hmm. Could be seen as a rather outlandish thing to say in the immediate aftermath of 2023-10-07, but in hindsight with what we know now in terms of what atrocities the Israeli military forces have brought upon the people of Gaza since that attack on Israel, it seems a reasonable statement to support armed resistance against the coming episode of genocide which indeed materialised and continues today.

Cryptpad:

• Full-on google docs / office365 / libreoffice type replacement with collaboration.
• E2EE
• The complexity means it doesn’t work well on mobile, takes a while to load on a slow connection, more frequent bugs. (3.5 MiB page transfer)
• Self-hosting is complicated.

Etherpad:

• A competent collaborative rich-text editor. Doesn’t do spreadsheets or presentations or […].
• Not E2EE (you need to trust that the server a bit more).
• Lightweight, works on slower connections, works alright on mobile. (1.7 MiB page transfer)
• Self-hosting quite simple.

PrivateBin:

• Super-simple plain-text/markdown pastebin. No editing possible once saved.
• E2EE
• Very small. Works fine on slow connections and mobile. (0.2 MiB page transfer)
• Self-hosting very simple.

Of course they would.

The nuance is recognising the Google hegemony is supported by choosing Chrome.

The understanding is realising what is happening to the open web as a result.

• Australia: 5ml vs 20ml
• Rest of World: 5ml vs 15ml

WTF is a square pound!? You’ve ruined my day.
