As a person who experienced the customer support regrading preorders I can confirm this firm is extremly sketchy.

If you like what NOYB is doing: they are accepting donations.

There is indeed a big difference between requiring a specific password vs. requiring a specific device or software to be able to use the service. Keep in mind that big tech can very conveniently leverage this technology to lock you in. For example think about Apple, Google and Microsoft requiring you to use passkeys, and then later require you to use your certified phone and app. Most people will not be able to “go elsewhere”.

You seem to be falling for what the author was writing about. Only because you could technically try to use keepassxc to store passkeys, that does not mean that it will work. You see passkeys were build in a way the service you’re trying to login to can decide if they accept your keepassxc for passkey storage or not. It looks like you are in control when you are actually not.

Just don’t use flatpaks. Let your distribution handle updates like it is supposed to do.

I would contradict you. The internet is not overreacting, Mozilla and parts of its community try to downplay the issue at hand.

Hopefully the court was clever enought to specify that the side loading must not be more difficult than installing via the store. Apple will for sure make it as complicated and user hostile as possible so they fulfill the ruling without having any practical impact.

Finally some good news

Kudos to Niccolò for openly speaking about his mistake of incorrectly stating his video was not sponsored. However I think he made a second mistake which is more serve. As a content creator he must pay more attention to what companies he’s accepting sponsorship from. Given the track record of malibal, this should have been a red flag in the first place.

Learned something new. Thank you!
