Yeah around here the little 90s car would look even more out of place since most people are driving lifted pickups that they are too out of shape to even lift anything into to haul. Guess what country I live in! :D

Look up Stellantis pop up ads, then look how many brands Stellantis owns... Truly dystopian.

Like the other comment said, if you drive a car made after 2014, don't bother. You drive a rolling tracking beacon regardless of what you do with your smart devices...

Are you talking about the bugs or the delay? For the delay I just tried last week actually. I always run a few browsers side by side out of necessity, and watching how much longer I wait for spinning loading icons on Firefox made me real sad. I can't afford the small but real delay. Life is too short for that. Anyone who can stomach the slowdown, I praise you for your ideals, genuine respect.

So hyped about this! Any Motorola phones that have removable batteries?

Firefox is literally backed by big tech though?

Gimp is love, gimp is life :) I have lost track of the years I have relied on that tool always being there when I need a quick edit or to modify some layers.

So many people suck up for the better of two bad options. You can use it and still give it deserved criticism, you won't hurt it's (or the wealthy Firefox exec team's) feelings.

All the JavaScript in gnome make it super icky to me as an ex-webdev, and unusable on hardware that is otherwise perfectly fine with other DEs. From high resource usage, memory leaks, and breaking extensions, I have a hard time believing that their userbase is anyone other than mobile native younger folk who are good at consuming via the iPad launcher paradigm. Just my humble opinion, nothing more.

Cars are the same way, with "lifetime fluid" that should really be replaced at regular intervals. Zero maintenance appliances are absolutely consumer traps.
