Thanks for sharing this. I watched the interview and it was one of the most interesting I've ever watched.

Speaking of backdoors in popular open source libraries, the recent incident with xz is exemplary I think.

Reasons to have kids

When they will support installing progressive web apps (PWA) like Chrome does, I'll consider it.

Well I guess it's only about time before Google goes all in with DRM.

As a Linux desktop user, web apps are very much welcome. Apps like Photopea and Adobe's new Photoshop web app are things that make the Linux desktop much more viable as a platform.

Yeah I've noticed that too. I have a systemd service that periodically updates a DNS record on duckdns.org and it fails quite often.

Some points on why I switched from Firefox to Chrome:

- It "failed" while trying to use Google Meet for work. I don't remember the details of the incident, but it was embarrassing enough that it made me switch, at least for work stuff

- No Chromecast support

- Buggier than Chrome in general: last I remember was an issue with page scaling when printing

- No desktop integration of PWAs (i.e. launcher icon, standalone window). This is what I missed the most as a Linux desktop user.

- Worse performance than Chrome, at least on Android. Firefox was freezing often and even causing my phone to... restart randomly. This is unacceptable.

Well, on my iPad mini 1st gen the web is unusably slow.
