I mean, you can grandstand all you want while you have no platforms to safely do it on. Pretty sure having working products for privacy is more important to activism than one guy being an asshole.

frankly, I dont trust an aggressive homophobe with my privacy

[-] ChemicalPilgrim@lemmy.world 48 points 2 years ago

Yeah that's rarely the only trait someone has that I find objectionable. Homophobia tends to come in a cluster with other shithead opinions

🤔 look, I’m not defending bigotry….

But an aggressive homophobe seems like the type to be highly motivated to care deeply about working privacy tools these days

So who exactly do you trust?

[-] YeetPics@mander.xyz 17 points 2 years ago

So when brave pay you do they direct deposit or do you get a paper cheque?

[-] RandoCalrandian@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago

😂😂😂 yes, because I made a joke I’m being paid by brave. You got me!

Question is, who’s paying you to get so butthurt over it?

[-] YeetPics@mander.xyz 10 points 2 years ago

Firefix just venmo'd me 50¢ to tell you to fuck off lol

[-] RandoCalrandian@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Well at least you can admit it. That’s the first step

[-] YeetPics@mander.xyz 4 points 2 years ago

I didn't complete my contract yet :(

[-] BolexForSoup@kbin.social 11 points 2 years ago

Don’t feed the troll

I'm...honestly surprised you can be on lemmy when you damn products over singular people. Just cause I know there's people who have tried to dissuade others from lemmy over the developers. And in that case the people involved are even closer to the code than a CEO would be.

[-] Lmaydev@programming.dev 21 points 2 years ago

If someone gets fired for being a piece of shit and then hired somewhere else it's pretty fair to assume that company isn't great. As they presumably knew that when they hired him and didn't care.

It's also the person running the company not some random employee.

[-] AnonTwo@kbin.social 7 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Okay

But in this entire discussion we haven't even tied him or his homophobia to the feature change this article is discussing.

[-] Lmaydev@programming.dev 11 points 2 years ago

Because that's not what this particular thread is discussing.

[-] beardown@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago

Yes it is, you just can't keep up

[-] joyjoy@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago

That's the entire reason most of us are on Lemmy. Fuck spez.

[-] AnonTwo@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

I mean yeah, but Spez we know for a fact actually did something.

[-] BolexForSoup@kbin.social 9 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Yeah, so committed to privacy that he built it on chromium
