I think there’s kind of a 3rd choice, WebKit.

That’s where Chromium came from originally, so not really 3rd.

And what else should be recommended?

The choice is basically between Firefox or skinned Chromium.

Do you really want to experience first-hand just why Internet Explorer was this hated?
Here’s a hint: de facto monopoly on browser market that allowed them to control the web standards back then and their ideas were not good.

it has become a sinking ship and I’m eager to see who picks up the shards and runs with it.

I don’t think you have any idea how much work it takes to create a new browser.

Much better than not reporting and wondering why the issues never get fixed.

XVI != XIV :)

It’s not even about the lower specs, it’s the optimization in general.

My PC is a little old, but still fine for most games up to medium settings.
But when I tried FF XVI, which is mentioned in the article, I couldn’t get anything close to acceptable performance with everything turned as low as possible and looking like shit.

That’s a very… capitalist way of thinking.

Also, fun fact: Kagi owner believes only criminals want privacy and GDPR doesn’t apply to them, because they said so!

I’d mention that if they allowed me to even access the front page from my country. :)

Japanese publishers’ idea of fighting against manga piracy: kill all legal options and launch their own website that is only available in USA (kmanga).

Gee, I wonder why that didn’t work!

I’m still not sure. It’s hard to believe anyone at their company would OK this idea.

Are they actually trying to deliberately kill their brand?

Last commit was 14 minutes ago, so I’d say it’s not dead.

Tape is actually doing pretty well.

Not the little cassette tapes, but tape storage tends to be used in big companies for backup long-term storage, and it doesn’t seem currently like it’s going anywhere.

Just leave them be. I think their point was to route tubing for custom water cooling loops.

Misquotes? There are literally screenshots in the article showing full quotes, I don’t know who are you trying to lie to…

And just because Kagi put some text on their website doesn’t make it true.
Taxes don’t work like that (at least not VAT) and you’re a fool for trusting a company which tried to commit a fraud.

Some EU countries do have tax exemptions for small businesses, which Kagi isn’t by any definition.

Anyway, that sure didn’t take long for you to prove Godwin’s law, huh?

Kagi is anything but private friendly. Their CEO claims only criminals actually want anonymity.

They also think they don’t need pay taxes or to abide by GDPR if they invent their own definitions of the laws.

That’s a really bad argument.
Texts got free (or cheap enough not to matter) way before having data enabled on your phone 24/7 was not too expensive.

Why? Do you really think Google started out evil, and not step by step by implementing “improvements” similar to this one?

I’m not planning to move anywhere tbh.

I do. If they go through with it than they’re not much better than Google.

If they don’t have enough money maybe they could start with cutting the CEO’s pay.

That’s a really bad argument. People smoking in public do force me to huff the second hand smoke.

Well, it is essentially what they’re doing already with DRM.

Try watching a full resolution stream on any paid streaming service using “bad” software, like Firefox or Linux.
