"Fast" means "close" or "almost" in German. Yeah, I agree. They almost had me convinced there were no alternatives to their little browser-data-collector-thingy.

[-] Rooki@lemmy.world 34 points 1 year ago

Firefox or any other non chromium based browser

[-] silasmariner@programming.dev 16 points 1 year ago

Genuinely don't know of any others but Firefox. I do a little lynx sometimes for super sus stuff but it's barely a browser....

[-] Jumper775@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

There’s WebKit and KHTML based ones, although I don’t know of any mainstream browsers that use those aside from safari or iOS. Other niche options exist for Linux.

[-] Risk@feddit.uk 2 points 1 year ago

There's also DuckDuckGo's browser - but I'm not sure what it's based on.

[-] 10EXP@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

Fairly certain its Webkit.

[-] gamey@feddit.rocks 2 points 1 year ago

It's Blink based as far as I know, well at least on Android, iOS still doesn't allow other browsers.

There's Konqueror. I don't know how secure it is, though...

The only others I know of are Mac-only: Safari and Orion.

Orion is great. I wish there was a Linux version.

[-] lemann@lemmy.one 4 points 1 year ago

Gnome Epiphany (renamed to Gnome Web at some point?) uses Safari's rendering engine.

Never heard of Orion before!

[-] Veraxus@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

Orion is by the developers of Kagi (a paid search engine that is actually as good, if not better, than Google) and has ad-blocking and anti-tracking built in natively. It's awesome.

[-] lemann@lemmy.one 2 points 1 year ago

Oooooh, now you've got me interested. I've heard good things about Kagi's paid search and yet to give it a try.

Fast haben sie ein nützliches Programm geschaffen.

They almost made a useful program.

[-] Asudox@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Fasten is also a verb in German.

[-] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

A depressed loaf of bread taught me "Mist" means "crap" in German

i use it with firefox. very solid adblock. never had a single issue over about three years.

[-] mustardman@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 1 year ago

How neutered is that for Manifest V3?

[-] mrcarrot@lemmy.calebmharper.com 19 points 1 year ago

In Firefox, it's not. YMMV in other browsers.

[-] mustardman@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 year ago

I guess the Sync app uses chromium so clicking the link took me to the Chrome extension so I thought that is what you explicitly linked.

[-] ReversalHatchery@beehaw.org 7 points 1 year ago

Quite a lot. There's a lite version for Mv3, but it's hands are tied

[-] Knusper@feddit.de 11 points 1 year ago
[-] hunt4peas@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 year ago

The best out there!

[-] TwinTusks@outpost.zeuslink.net 4 points 1 year ago

a question, what is the difference between uBlock and uBlock Origin?

[-] Knusper@feddit.de 23 points 1 year ago

uBlock Origin is the real deal, don't use uBlock: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UBlock_Origin#uBlock

[-] Hildegarde@lemmy.world 55 points 1 year ago

Its almost as fast as firefox.

These people behave like wild animals at a safari

[-] BudgetBandit@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago

Internet Explorer is not responding

[-] MeltedManufacturing@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

In this hellish netscape I sure could use a good navigator.

[-] ipkpjersi@lemmy.ml 39 points 1 year ago

Yep, that's why I use Firefox lol

[-] sederx@programming.dev 23 points 1 year ago

reminder that any proprietary piece of software is technically malware

[-] SirHery@lemmy.world 35 points 1 year ago

Edge sure feels like malware. Installs itself without asking. Spams you into oblivion when you use it. I hab real malware that was less intrusive.

[-] DmMacniel@feddit.de 18 points 1 year ago

Well... thats just unfortunate :D
