How would this be different from any browser that has Wikipedia search built in?

Did you try changing the timeout time value? I think the default is 3 seconds…

100% this. They already got caught sharing your health data with Facebook. Don’t think they (insurance companies)won’t buy DNA data en masse.

OP wanted a Chromium browser that wasn’t a massive privacy invasion. With Google stuff removed, it’ll be good enough. Add uBO and ClearURLs.

What’s wrong with ungoogled-chromium?

Maybe TOR uses FF because it’s easier to modify for their purposes.

Others would call that “insecure”

The VPN isn’t generating the requests. Other apps on your device are. Run a VPN for a while and look at data usage by app. I guarantee your VPN app will be the highest (all the other apps data gets funneled through the VPN).

Nobody in this entire thread of FUD has posted a single link to support any claim of Russian data intrusion.

Stop using the DDG Browser.

Librewolf updates all the time, probably weekly (I don’t watch it that closely).

Sentinel dVPN does/did the same thing. You’d connect to their network, pay a Node operator directly with the network’s coin, and you’d use their connection. Don’t know how safe it was, with respect to seeing the through-traffic, but it did work.

These people are definitely not “the first”

I do the same for desktop machines, just to identify immediately without hostnames.

Not only browsers, but operating system as well. Using GrapheneOS, eOS, or whatever?

Denied. Stock OS only on OUR internet, sorry.

Here’s another large discussion:

For now. This is a near-future thing.

Why would they sell you something for $50 one time, when they can charge you $9.99 / month forever?

A full “exhaustive” list would never be able to get every community on every instance, due to the nature of federation and how they propagate to each other. I’m sure that Search will eventually see most instance/comms, as they have to be known to each other which will come with time (probably not long).

The neat part about this is who gives a fuck. Pick an instance. Go subscribe to some communities. Unpopular not to support the latest witchhunt/bullshittery, I know. Most folks moved past this last year. PG is still up to date and relevant, and PTIO isn’t. I could see how that would make some salty.

Lemmy.one is also not supported, nor the other 100’s of instances. Is there a workaround, maybe through the browser app?

If it’s an app manifest issue, can it be coded to allow modification of the list?
