I uninstalled this piece of dogshit as soon as they became fag enablers. It's not even half as good as chromnium anyway.

Not a good reason to use a shittier browser

The use of the term “meritocracy” to describe communities that suffer
from a lack of diverse representation is increasingly seen as
problematic: it proceeds from an assumption of equality of opportunity.
There is now quite substantial evidence [1] as well as opinion [2] that
we should challenge this usage.

Then why are you using firefox in the first place?

"Not only have we banned discrimination on the grounds of race, creed, or color, but also on the grounds of ability!"

The alternatives are even worse, because they're essentially either old Firefox (Pale Moon) or Chrome (almost everything else)

While I disagree with this whole correctness thing, meritocracy is problematic because it arises the issue of what merit is and how it should be assessed.

I just said, I don't want to use a shittier browser that has less functionality (chromium based browsers) or speed (firefox forks).

firecocks is literally the LAST browser anyone would look for if they actually wanted a good browser though.

Shit opinion is shit

What are you gonna do, fire me?

I just switched from the Jewgle Chrome Botnet to SJWFox two weeks ago.
You either have the choice between SJW+Botnet (Chrome), Botnet (Brave, Opera) or SJW (Firefox), and I personally prefer the SJW without botnet option.

Similarly, many scholars will argue that race and gender are merely social constructs. This is problematic because it poses the issue of what actually is race; what is gender? By your logic Mozilla also needs to remove diversity from its governance documents.

Pity (You)

>Jow Forums children tell me to use another browser because words are changed on documents I've never even looked at before

jesus fuck you retards are worse than sjws

1.) if they were paying me I'd be singing its praises instead of saying "Well, it's awful, but it's the least-bad option"
2.) I reject the argument implied by your image. Privacy is more important than speed, for one, and the fastest code is code that doesn't run, for another. Most of the time in that comparison is spent downloading and executing javascript that you should be blocking anyway. This is why Pale Moon isn't a real alternative, uMatrix is only maintained in the new webextention version, and ublock origin will be following soon.

How is firecocks in ANY way privacy oriented?

Of course you do you filthy SJW feminist degenerate waste of skin

It isn't, out of the box. You have to install addons and change a few hundred about:config settings. (There is, at least, a user.js file to make this simpler, github.com/ghacksuserjs/ghacks-user.js)

That's still better than Chrom[e,ium] where you have to literally edit out hardcoded Google spying and recompile the thing, and then install the same addons, and then find that several of the settings you can disable in Firefox (eg, turning off various JS APIs as an anti-fingerprinting measure) just can't be disabled at all in Chrome.

>why haven't you stopped using firefox yet?
No good alternative sadly.

For fucks sake. I want to fuck that. Am I becoming a furfag?

These SJWs have been indoctrinated by professors that literally believe that it is impossible to ever know reality. What does it mean to "do" anything and how can we truly know if anyone can "do" it? This ideology is literal cancer and the universities need to be defunded yesterday.

Gotta mirror the same question back at you. How much is Google©®™ paying you?

>I can't handle the truth: the post

>uses a browser that literally gets funding from google directly
SWEETIE

The sad thing is most of the questioning of reality comes from alternatively interesting and terribly dry philosophers that questioned the very nature and meaning of everything.. however in the modern day it's become like Nihilism.. which originally was asserted by philosophers such as Nietzsche that life had only the meaning that you gave it, whereas now it has been dumbed down by angry teenagers to mean "nothing in life matters" (even if it doesn't, they don't understand this), not realizing that just because YOU are a useless empty minded fool, everyone else isn't automatically one as well (even if they are).

I love these thinly veiled excuses to post furry images.

Same thing.

>typical virtue signalling SJW word salad that says nothing
This kind of shit plus the repeated privacy encroachment is why I switched to Waterfox. I really hope nothing ends up being wrong with that because my only other options are

When did browser choice become so political? I miss just firing up Netscape navigator and looking at weebshit and porn and not worrying about anything.

Same but unironically.

>b-but i don't like politics
Politics has infested every facet of life due to SJW culture. If you don't talk about it it doesn't just go away. The reason things are the way they are right now (SJW toeholds in major companies/projects) is because autists like you willfully had blinders on to the subversion that was going on around you.

>reality has a Jow Forums bend
>m-muh POLE THREDS

This is the most Jow Forums post in the thread.

>instagram
nah

Just use Chrome like everyone else for fucks sake. Do you autistic bastards really look into fucking politics of shit this hard? You're never going to have the perfect browser unless you write one yourself and you're too inept to do that so deal with the fucking options you have you stupid cunt. Barely anyone uses fagfox and even less its shitty derivatives, and less for the other shit too.

Stop being a pussy and just use a web browser in silence. This goes for all of you. It's just a web browser. It is not that deep.

You mean 100% incorrect with self denial and massive projection.

>why haven't you stopped using firefox yet?
I dropped this trash when they decided to fuck it all over

I'd love to use a blink/webkit based browser like chrome or safari, but they all can't smooth scroll, at least no on Mac OS X.
Damn shame, because that's all that's bad with them, but it's insanely crucial. I basically scroll 50% of the time im in the browser (duh, naturally).

>inb4 smooth scolling extensions - they all suck

Attached: foxes have two genders. end of discussion.jpg (500x750, 74K)

No. I mean that it is correct. Current day reality is wery much what pol said it will be. Meritocracy dead, companies infeted by sjw and not even hiding it, non left news filtered, non left workers hiding their opinions out of fear to be fired... list goes on.
It is you who seems to be in denial.

It's software, who the fuck cares if they're SJWs or not? It's still the best browser out there. Chrome, Chromium, Opera, and everything else is worse.

Just use an uncucked fork.
Waterfox is better than Firefox anyway.

>this is your brain on Jow Forums

I honestly don't care, because it barely (if at all) affects the actual browsing experience.

That is merely being qualified or not to do a job.
When you bring up meritocracy you're talking about making those who achieve more have more power, which is not a bad concept by itself, but it's not quite practical since you'd have to figure out a fair way to say some contributions are worth more than others and have merit not accumulate indefinitely. Otherwise you could have a bunch of cronyism in which only few people have the spotlight.
Also, gender and race politics can go die in a fire, especially if it's regarding technology.

No it isn't.

Why is everything so polarized these days

See number 2 of , you absolute normalfaggot. Try it with Reddit next time.

fuck off, redditor

>developer actively posts and responds on Reddit
>le fuck off le reditor
Maybe if you weren't a retard, you'd know more about the browser you're shilling so hard.

sweaty, I'm not shilling browsers
go slip on a banana peel, redditor

That is an awful "benchmark", not meaningful in any way. That's not a correct way of testing loading speeds. I'm pretty sure Firefox is still currently faster than Chrome but it depends on what sites you visit too, and that video was clearly made by a troll like you or whoever made it is a tech illiterate. Grow up, retard.

>he has a kneejerk reaction to Reddit even though that's where the majority of developers post these days
>he gets his news from Jow Forums and random tech blogs instead of directly from the source
Even the Waterfox site lacks the insight you get from reading his posts. Grow up.

Because chromium literally uses anti competitive practices to harm non Google owned services. Most recently being the "MEI" score that YouTube apparently gets a pass from.

How do you disable webRTC or implement multi-account container like functionality to prevent tracking?

i stopped using firefox because of the ui updates, i wouldn't stop using something because my fee-fees got hurt because the mean also used it

i'd tell you to grow a pair but you seem like the type that would snip it off

Bullshit & kys

>I can't handle the truth, the post
Oh sweetie.

Uh no. Your point is an issue of implementation, not an indictment of rule by merit in general.

fuck off to reddit if you like it there so much. what are you doing here if you hate us so much, nigger?

>reading comprehension
Jow Forums is my home site and has been longer than you've even known about it, newfag. Reading development updates and comments on Reddit does not equal being a Redditor. It means having the common sense to look toward their active community for comments.

>why haven't you stopped using firefox yet?
because i don't care the sjw boogyman.

The truth is, that you post about privacy concerns on a website that is known to rat out users, forces you to enable javascript and pushes tech illiterates into installing an mobile phone application for data collection purposes.
Stupid piece of shit, fuck off and die, scum.

If you're talking about me posting on Reddit, I have never posted in my life. I don't even have an account. If you're talking about Jow Forums, take a look at yourself.

Yes that is my issue with it, sorry if I was unclear about it all.

Why don't you fags create your own firefox fork instead of crying? Firefox is already poisoned and the other options are botnet.

From the governance docs
> The first line of Mozilla’s governance[0] states, “Mozilla is an open source project governed as a meritocracy.”

What does this mean, concretely? It means that that people that distinguish themselves by ability have more power. The sentence is an assertion of value, not an implementation. It says, simply, our project values most highly those of greatest ability. The removal of it signals the contrary: we do not value most highly those with the highest ability. This is because high ability also happens to correlate with being non-diverse. And since diversity is the greatest possible good, we can't have a value that conflicts with it, now can we?

Honestly too lazy. I would gladly do it, but I know I'd give up halfway and be stuck with something that's barely a change.

THE CANCER THAT IS KILLING OPEN SOURCE

Why do trannies ruin everything they fucking touch? Why is 50% of open source compromised by this thought police shit?

Good things cost money. It's like asking your friend bob to do your plumbing or electrical work for a couple of beers and a barbeque vs contracting a licensed experience contractor.

Who would have thought that a software movement that is communistic in nature would attract the ideology of the latest breed of communists.

I've never read that document so I don't care. Firefox is still the best browser so I'll keep using it.

That's like being tested positive for aids and never reading the test results.
