  • Interesting UI, terrible font rendering on Linux at least.

  • Why not talk about that stuff instead of AI? That's on the new CEO, not the community.

  • Not disagreeing with you - just saying that the legal underpinnings of open source are the copyright regime.

  • Copyright isn't awesome, it is useful. The whole basis of open source is built on the concept of copyright (copyleft), so alignment with copyright isn't "sudden", it is fundamental.

  • So what is that, a build of Chromium with no Vivaldi features? What is the point exactly? I can download Chromium by itself already. I'll even get edit history, unlike the big tarball that Vivaldi gives me.

  • There are many open source licenses. Being closed source isn't one of them.

  • Wanna show me the free version of Vivaldi?

  • Open source is like being pregnant - you either are are you aren't. Vivaldi isn't.

  • Eich was a failure. He sat on e10s for years while Chrome continued gaining marketshare. The path to monetization is something he says he wanted to do at Mozilla but did at Brave instead.

    At Brave, he started with a Gecko offshoot but couldn't make it work and retreated to Chromium.

  • The reason it works is because Mozilla staff isn't going to offer to call any random person with a "stupid anecdote".

    EDIT: FWIW, your logic is broken: while your imagined yoasif denies the claim, that differs from what Baffalox does in reality - they say "yes, but". Imagined yoasif just said "no."

    Wouldn't have been critical of the form of your logic, but I mean -- you said my logic was stupid. I'm not sure you understood my logic.

  • So we should take it seriously.

    Thanks for clarifying!

  • It is going to happen to all locales, not just Japan. The Japan locale leader was just a canary in the coalmine.
