I'm so mad how little non #Chromium browser options are available out there for general desktop/PC users. I tried Zen out once and it seemed okay, albeit a lil alpha/beta-ish atm (until when, I'm not sure) but it is still an option to look out for - not a fan of how it looks like #Chrome plastered onto #Firefox tho.

Realistically, I'd love some "big" (
#FOSS) player(s) to fork and maintain a single brand new Firefox instance of some sort that becomes the new "de facto" Firefox browser, rather than #Mozilla's, but idk if that's gonna happen. Even #KDE's browser is Chromium based which is just... NOT an option for me.

I still find it ridiculous that
#Apple gatekeeps #Safari to Macs lol, it's just a browser, what harm is there in opening it up to other systems even if there's some missing features locked to the Apple ecosystem here and there (i.e. #TouchID or #ApplePay integration, etc.). That'll at least add more numbers against #Google's insane dominance.

GSV Sleeper ServiceDavid Gerard (@davidgerard@circumstances.run)Attached: 1 image New Mozilla TOS diff. This is what they just removed: * Does Firefox sell your personal data? > Nope. Never have, never will. And we protect you from many of the advertisers who do. Firefox products are designed to protect your privacy. That’s a promise. The purpose of the new TOS appears to be to enable them to do this - such as for their advertising and AI sidelines. https://github.com/mozilla/bedrock/commit/d459addab846d8144b61939b7f4310eb80c5470e

Really nice feature for #ApplePay would be being able to change my default card based on geolocation.

Example: default card is from a payement network not accepted at Costco.

Auto change my payment to {specific card}

Same holds for local transportation, which can be picky.

I suspect that for really agressive churners, they could likely automate their entire portfolio

How does stuff like those nfc chips some people implant on themselves work for credit card payments and stuff? Does it work like Apple Pay or something like that? Does the bank need to do anything to support it or do they just see it as a regular apple/google pay device?

Also, if the banks don’t need to do anything to support them then why don’t we have like open source reimplementations of google pay for postmarketOS or something?

I got a Curve card so I could use Apple Pay on my iPhone, but then moved to Android and set up Google Pay... but now you can 'tæppe med Vipps'.

I guess that means I can ditch UK-based Curve and US-based Google Pay and Apple Pay in favour of a local, Norwegian service :vipps:
