  • The site seems to be down

    So, for everyone that doesn’t know, in mozilla’s own words:

    About *Privacy Not Included: *Privacy Not Included is a buyers guide focused on privacy rather than price or performance. Launched in 2017, the guide has reviewed hundreds of products and apps. It arms shoppers with the information they need to protect the privacy of their friends and family, while also spurring the tech industry to do more to safeguard consumers.

    (Btw I love rss readers that cache stuff)










  • Signal: Because I want better messaging, and somehow they already achieved some adoption.

    Firefox: If Firefox can somehow make their browser miles ahead of chrome, I think that’d be just plain good for the world.

    Gitea/Forgejo: I think Github is another one of these centralized platforms that’s pretty ripe for disruption (and gitlab is just not gonna do it).

    Lemmy: It’d be amazing to have all the kinks ironed out of lemmy.

    Mastodon: Same thing as lemmy. Get social media out of the hands of big companies.

    Mail-in-a-box: I want to be able to host my own email if I want to. Proton is great, but isn’t email supposed to be an open standard?

    Framework: Not exactly a software project, but man I’d love to see them get the time to push out a ton of great different products and really spark the right to repair movement. It’s the first device I was actually excited to buy.

    Linux Mint: I don’t use mint, but it seems like one of the most user friendly distros. I would love for them to make everything perfect and create a seamless experience (and really make a year of the linux desktop). I also think it would be great to just have one clear frontrunner for new users.

    Coreboot: Make firmware open source? Yes please.

    Truly Open Source LLM: I really don’t want this tech to be in just the hands of just a big company. I’d love for there to be an LLM that has not only it’s weights open, but the full dataset, training methods and everything open.

    I think when you just get 10 years of dev time, you get an opportunity to push a project ahead of all it’s competitors. It is kind of interesting to get to pick and choose a project to be the frontrunner (even if they aren’t currently).
