Isn't this about performance and not storage?
Making and managing an electron app is easier, but it is possible (with more work) to have clean install/uninstall, a nice UI, and consistent regular updates while still being fast and efficient.
Better programs will always need more work to create.
I am curious about what other options there are, and why Electron is what a lot of people go with.
That's pretty cool even without the cheesy factor
Also real quick
The trackers are in the shell which you don't eat (or aren't supposed to eat)
Requiring a usable mobile site could be a compromise.
That's something that should apply to all of them. It's stupid that things like Facebook Messenger don't work on mobile now.
Isn't that the same controversy, just worded in favor of privacytools?
I'm trying to judge based on what I've read from each party, and I'm still leaning towards the privacyguides account of what went down
The recommendations are probably the biggest factor for me. See the VPN pages on each site
The article on privacyguides I linked above touches on some of this as well. I haven't read through this one, but seems like the less verifiable one in a "x said y said" situation?
I think this is specifically talking about the government's use of spyware, regardless of who made it.
Corporation's also need better regulations, but that's going to be a continuous process.
thanks, fixed!
Ah nice :)
I find it a lot better, worth a try if you can get it

Part of why I picked Bitwarden over keepass was that it had nice apps/extensions for all my devices, like you said. I didn't miss any features when I switched, and instead gained a few cool ones.
I've been seeing a lot of techy "privacy" blog posts, even here on Lemmy. It's a little annoying when they muddy up the waters like this. People new to privacy will come across them and head off in the wrong direction.
We need more comments calling them out and linking to proper resources. The site linked in this post even has a confusingly similar name to the actual recommended resource:
https://www.privacyguides.org/en/desktop-browsers/
(And a quick sidenote: privacyguides is the same team from privacytools. There was a name change after the original owner for the domain came back and fought over the project. PrivacyTools is now a paid advertising site, and it is NOT recommended. https://www.privacyguides.org/en/about/privacytools/ )
Edit: while I'm at it, here's the official community on Lemmy
Firefox+ublock seemed to take care of it for me. I had to refresh the page before I could scroll though
Answers can be googled but opinions are more subjective?
