Josh WellsThere will be a lot of necessary debate over Mozilla’s original mistake and this hopeful change. This is a good move, and as a long-term user of Firefox I find it very welcome.Organizations are made of people and make mistakes. Can you imagine Google or Apple so quickly changing their stances like this in response to user input? Or even at all? Brave has many integrations with third party vendors. How quickly would they sever financial ties in a similar situation?DuckDuckGo has a lot of gaps in their privacy models.We need more open browsers developed by communities for the public good, not unlike Firefox.<a href="https://techcrunch.com/2025/03/03/mozilla-rewrites-firefoxs-terms-of-use-after-user-backlash/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://techcrunch.com/2025/03/03/mozilla-rewrites-firefoxs-terms-of-use-after-user-backlash/</a><a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/firefox" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#firefox</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/browser" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#browser</a>

FellI wish authentication on the web worked like this:- Every browser has one (or more) public key(s). - The browser presents the public key to the server on request. - A public key can be shared between browsers of the same user. - To give your friend access to a web site, you simply ask for their public key.I know there are passkeys and TLS client certificates, but all implementations are majorly flawed and half-assed in my opinion.<a href="https://ma.fellr.net/tags/Web" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Web</a> <a href="https://ma.fellr.net/tags/Browser" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Browser</a> <a href="https://ma.fellr.net/tags/WebAuth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WebAuth</a> <a href="https://ma.fellr.net/tags/Passkeys" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Passkeys</a> <a href="https://ma.fellr.net/tags/Security" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Security</a> <a href="https://ma.fellr.net/tags/InfoSec" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#InfoSec</a> <a href="https://ma.fellr.net/tags/TLS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TLS</a>

Jon S. von TetzchnerIf you are looking to move away from your Big Tech browser, maybe it is time to give Vivaldi a try?A few things worth mentioning:1. Workspaces and tab stacks. 2. Tab tiles. 3. Vivaldi Social, Mastodon server. 4. Encrypted sync. 5. Built in tracker and ad blocker. 6. No crypto built in. 7. No AI built in.Vivaldi is made in Norway and Iceland and our servers are hosted in Iceland.<a href="https://vivaldi.com" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://vivaldi.com</a><a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Vivaldi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Vivaldi</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Browser" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Browser</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Windows</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Macos" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Macos</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Linux</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Android" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Android</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/iOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#iOS</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/@Vivaldi" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@Vivaldi</a>
