I will never understand how people expect software to gather no telemetry or metrics whatsoever.

Signing doesn’t provide security of privacy protections. It just means you paid apple a fee.
Google and apple both allow pwas right now though, don’t they? I don’t think it’s a threat. It’s just apple trying to say fu to the eu. The eu will slp a billion dollar fine on them. They’ll pay it.
They’re actually secure too. It’s always interesting to me how iphone owners are so concerned about security and privacy, right up until Apple tells them not to.
Reading this new CEOs job history on linkedin is kinda infuriating. She goes from intern to head of consumer products at Skype in less than a year. Just… Frustrating to read that while I am and manage really good people who struggle for decades in the trenches to get even paltry job opportunities.
But she got her MBA from Stanford so nepotism ahoy I guess.
I’m surprised to hear /home is non standard.
The same people will have chrome eat ram or crash and just shrug and restart. It’s not about the browser. It’s the same “I use chrome because everyone else is insecure” “a zero day was reported for chrome last week” “yeah, everyone has bugs sometimes”. They have a narrative they want to believe and they self select to support it.
It’s the classic tech argument
“I use this because I care about y” “but it’s worse at y?” “Y isnt really that important to me”
I’ve always found the Tpm complaints a little suspicious. The same people who go on and on about how much they worry about security and privacy and how MS doesn’t care, suddenly just don’t give a shit in these cases. I assume they mostly just want to shit on stuff.
It’s a good to push to make it standard and hardware manufacturers wont without a good old shove.
64gb of ram? What’s the use case for that?
Firefox shipped sandboxing on Android years ago (before chrome) and then removed it. I’m not sure you gain much from it on Android. It eats up ram making performance crap on cheap phones and apps already run in their own app user context to isolate what they can access.
