Firefox is sustained (biggest funder) by google who needs artificial competitions to not be labeled a monopoly.

Its still the best browser i can think off that isn’t chromium but i would recommend staying skeptical.

Oh no, the execution and information thus far has been horrible. You are alluding to blockchain are you? When i look at the website you post i see absolutely nothing that i even recognize as web3 its all cryptostuff.

I don’t get why everybody is so hell-bend on blockchain based internet (sure its decentralized but come on, we're creative enough to do better). Its like people don’t get the point of “user owned” and are expecting companies to build a better internet for them without serving their own interests.

No, we are going to need to do this ourselves, self host our own data and services, open source everything.

Lemmy and the fediverse are the closest i have seen to being proto web 3 in spirit and there are also still far from perfect.

I have read the "What is web3" from that site and could not disagree on the definition more. I would not be suprised if both the blockchain cults and this website are part of the propaganda machine that is stopping a free internet from happening.

My web3 is aligned much more with this: https://www.fsf.org/blogs/community/user-liberation-watch-and-share-our-new-video

I don’t judge people who give in to the oppressor. Life is hard and you have to pick your battles, more important stuff then blocking ads for “normal” people.

For me its largely a disability/accessibility thing. The whole site is not usable.

Its not that i want to die on this hill its that corporate bullshit is measurably detrimental to my health. My hill is the only one i can exist on.

Wow all this bullying is really convincing me to go back to their shitty platform.

If i can’t access my fav creators anymore itl just motivate me to do sm productive, like building web3

If my explanation is to complex you dont need to take my word for it.

Definitely watch this video: https://www.fsf.org/blogs/community/user-liberation-watch-and-share-our-new-video

The way we the internet want to build the better system is called “web3” if you look this up youl find whole sites and even books written about it (but watch out for crypto scammers framing it)

Pretty much al you appear to be worried about comes from a web2 understanding of the internet.

The fediverse is supposed to be web3 in action. To me its more like a prototype.

I feel like both new cars and phones have been overhyped for a while now.

Ai is simultaneously over and under hyped depending on context.

Idk, if there is one thing it does consistently well its standardized tests.

Not that it can be used in any non mathematical class and if teachers do actually pay attention.

Oh so that is why my eyes burn, i thought it was purely the content.

Actually i have and love my 21:9, but it was a weird journey.

The most common resolution for them is 3440x1440 21:9

At work i use a 2560x1600 16:10

You may see my problem, i was not going to give up those 160 vertical pixels. So i got a 3840x1600 instead…

Which comes down to the same 21:9..

I think the reason its not a problem is cause how rarely your only using a single fullscreen window on such ultrawides.

Majestic for gaming ind.. and the gpu caught fire again.

16:9 was pushed on us because it was cheaper to produce on mass for tv and pc. 16:9 was better for movies.

There are some monitors from just before this massive market manipulation and those have 16:10, sometimes with display port before hdmi was even mainstream.

Apple is actually one of the few companies to make the jump from 4:3 to 16:10 avoiding the 16:9 with very few exceptions.

To this day i see people work with old software designed for the area of more vertical screens but doing so on screens designed for movies.

Most people dont even understand what i mean when i explain this. But the good thing is my issue with it was considered a disability so they had to accommodate me with something more sensible.

Sorry long comments but this is a personal vice for me.
