There is a lot of toxicity here and I think this is a good example of part of the problem. We have been injecting pc tolerance everywhere with little to no focus on men. Why can't I wear feminine esk clothing like a thumb ring. Men are unable to express themselves with dress or emotionally without being considered unattractive..

Yea, the capitalist "free market" that we have allows me to go buy the latest flagship phone with and root able bootloader that I can resign, replaceable batteries, expandable storage and dual Sim. Well you can in China but not the US.

This is why I think China has won. They are able to leverage free market dynamics without the ip/legal bloat here and then they just pull out the gun for national interest.

This. Once you see how the company spends money and how much they pay and effort they spend to hire an average skilled developer... It's empowering. Unfortunately lots of companies have just accepted high turnover rates and move forward. Imo they only do this because quantifying turnover costs is hard.

I would love to use something other than brave but Firefox is shit and arguably getting worse over time. They have been sacrificing ux for revenue streams for a while now. Also extension management is a joke, especially if you have more than 5 extensions.

I have like 30 chrome extensions... Most of which get used at least weekly. Many of them do things like prevent sites from blocking text select or copy paste, things like that. I believe extensions are the mechanism of agency that enables a browser to be an "user agent" again.

No. Auth is not that hard, it's not hard to scale. It's the bloodline of every interaction between you and your customers. Nearly every "web" language has a open source Auth solution with modern jwts or jwts on cookies. Bcrypt and salting solves "storing passwords". Further more once you do it it's highly repeatable across products.
