This was mentioned in Little Brother by Cory Doctorow. So, what do we do about it?

Librewolf isn’t available on Android.

On the desktop, it’s decent. It’s also what I recommend to most people asking me for advice. However, on that front, it’s beaten by Tor Browser and Mullvad Browser.

Nah, fuck that. I’m using yash.

Yeah, this is so fucking annoying. I’ve been banging on about Signal for years, but everyone except a small handful of my wisest friends insist upon using WhatsApp and Discord.

Almost everyone I know also uses Instagram, and no other social media. I am yet to meet someone in real life who even has Mastodon.

In England, we call them roadmen.

(I realise this doesn’t make complete sense. I think I was probably a little drunk when I made this. The label on Earth shouldn’t be there."

I mean, that would work, and it would be a fun site to visit; but visually impaired users and non-English speakers would have difficulty without alt text, and at that point you’d may as well just write a regular page. However, as I said, it would be fun.

I know, and I’m still researching the best way to mitigate this. So far, I’ve come away with the impression that Tor Browser and Brave do the best jobs of minimising fingerprinting, otherwise I would have just disabled JS in Vanadium and called it a day.

As it happens, Brave started crashing for no apparent reason shortly after I posted this, so I’m back on Tor Browser. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yes, I’m aware of the irony.

I flip back and forth between Brave and Tor Browser, depending on which one appears less fingerprintable; and I’ve disabled all of the analytics.

Honestly very accurate. In fact, I only use Arch because Void wasn’t playing nice last time I tried it.

I generally do the same. In fact, on desktop, uBO is set to hard mode. Unfortunately, I do need to access these sites from time to time.

HTML and CSS can do quite a lot, and you can use PHP or cgi-bin for some scripting.

Of course, it’s not a perfect alternative. JavaScript is sometimes the only option; but a website like the one I was trying to use could easily have just been a static site.

Same vibes:

Sadly not. The Taliban are one of the worst groups to ever exist; but I am, in this case, talking about Reform.

I don’t understand how an organisation can be so comically evil and still be polling higher than anyone else.
