      At this point I’d rather every corp pushing it lose all their money instead.

    This guy is a web3 leader, agile coach, and he has a “Master of Science in Leadership & Organizational Behavior.” Not a scammer at all.

    And paying $20 a month to search for slop recipes and have your private data stolen is very cheap.

      Web 3 was the NFT world, surely an AI fueled internet is Web4? Hm. Why haven’t we heard of web 4 yet?

      Opera did ditch their own browser engine long time back and are now just a skin on Chromium [like many other browsers]. Opera, for some reason, has multiple browsers running. Neon isn’t their main offering as of now. They technically have Opera GX [gaming focused version] and Opera Air [released some months earlier though I haven’t used the latter] as well.

        But they literally got bought up, and (IIRC) the main Opera devs moved to Vivaldi.

        Opera, as it exists now, is literally just a just capitalizing on the old browser’s name recognition.

          Which is kind of funny. It barely had any name recognition at all, and for the die hards still on board, they all tracked the nuance of the situation and either gave up or went to Vivaldi.

            IDK. It has enough recognition that I’ve seen it confuse folks on Lemmy. And this is a pretty techy crowd.
