I work in the copper industry and can confirm we get shit sponsors.

Someone already asked me to upload to other than Imgur, so did I, but forgot to edit the main post. Should be fine now.
Thank you!
No problem!
This is a silly take. It's an open source project from a non profit creating a new browser option
The joke is Ea nasir as copper sponsor: !reallyshittycopper@lemmy.world
It's just a ~4000 years old meme: https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/complaint-tablet-to-ea-nasir
Swoosh 🤦♂️ thank you
Yeah the other side of this is that there is mandatory 1 sponsor and it is Alphabet/Google
Edit: read the list and noticed the primeagen is on there so I guess it must be evil

Agreed. I looked into this and it seems like an honest effort to try and prevent a total Chrome monopoly.
A fresh browser is a massive project. Web standards are massive, and complex, and growing.
It would be nice to see Firefox killing it, but they aren’t.
there's another non-fascist browser rendering project yknow, with less hype around it but just as promising imo
~~and also it's made in rust so you know it's good~~
The very first text on that page:
Servo aims to empower developers with a lightweight, high-performance alternative for embedding web technologies in applications.
That’s not quite the same as a browser trying to support web standards.
Though I do want to see servo succeed too.
And why is ladybird fascist?
devs are charlie kirk stans, and consider(ed, they seem to have changed course on this, good) gender neutral pronouns to be "too political"
Great, find out they're supposedly not against gender neutral pronouns, only to know hear they're charlie Kirk stans. Source?
admittedly "charlie kirk stan" was maybe not the best way to describe it (i got this from other people), he hasn't posted much about him (other than to mourn his death lol), but
![Screenshot of a tweet by @awesomekling: In recent years I've attended multiple software conference talks that had unrelated extreme political rhetoric in slides, such as "fuck [name]" and "punch [group]". Whenever this happened, some of the audience would clap and cheer, I'd roll my eyes, and the talk would get back on topic. Fast-forward to today, and look at how many people in our industry are openly celebrating the murder of someone they decided was a "nazi" and "fascist". Turns out these people were more serious than I thought. As someone who's repeatedly been called a "nazi" and "fascist" myself for disagreements with far-left ideology, I know how easily those labels get thrown around. And honestly, this is making me seriously reconsider which conferences I attend. There's a hateful rot within our industry. It shouldn't be socially acceptable to cheer for murder. We need to do more than roll our eyes.](https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/pictrs/image/a920f93d-5208-4a05-bec6-333a9338121b.webp)
apparently he thinks the software industry has a nazi-hating problem??? lmao
i’m still wary of him. he doesn’t have a big thing to point to like DHH, but the way he speaks and the people he associates with (including, you guessed it, DHH) raises a ton of red flags
Yeah no, I'd rather stick with Firefox. We need another browser but not from a future fascist grifter.
if something is sponsored by futo, shopify and 37signals???? run
i trust Ea-nāṣir more than i trust DHH
update me is this part of the joke or is there some problem with futo im unaware of
futo collaborates with and platforms curtis yarvin, a self-described fascist
they also did a bunch of other shady bullshit which the article talks about, but which i don't consider to be as important
Goddammit, now I have to find another keyboard for my phone. Any recommendations for one that isn't supported by fascists?
Could someone fork the FUTO keyboard? Idk how this works
i’ve switched to HeliBoard on my tablet!
i wouldn’t call it a drop-in replacement (i don’t think it has swipe-to-type or voice recognition for example, tho i could be wrong) but for me it works even better
It does have swipe, but you need to download an extra thing iirc.
Here is the extra thing: https://github.com/Helium314/HeliBoard/wiki/8.-Advanced.
How do enable voice to text?

I use Unexpected Keyboard.
It's mainly made for programming or using Termux, and it makes some special characters more accessible than the classic keyboards. It also has a mechanic for typing special characters that makes it faster to type. And you can enable a compose key, which is something I love to see on a phone keyboard.
Unexpected doesn't have voice recognition though, but it can be enabled by installing a voice recognition app alongside the keyboard.

I use florisboard, it doesnt have built-in voice support but you can use a seperate app for that and more unfortunately it doesnt have corrections and recommendations. They are working on implementing them but even without that its by far the most solid keyboard ive found.

FUTO is seemingly lead by an entirely unrelated toxic individual. But as for 37signals:
The open source web application framework Ruby on Rails was initially created by David Heinemeier Hansson for internal use at 37signals, before being publicly released in 2004.
for further context on DHH, CEO and founder of 37signals: he also made omarchy, the infamous dodgy-personal-arch-config-turned-linux-distro, is in large part the reason why framework is in so much hot water right now, and the reason he's bad (and why we're mad at framework for collaborating with him) is he's an open white supremacist
Damn thanks for explaining all that, i didnt know any of that

Non-browser companies I don’t like are sponsoring a browser engine alternative so they don’t all end up getting hosed by Google’s lock-in.
As long as the end result is what I want I am alright with jerks I don’t like footing the bill if our separate self-interests are momentarily aligned.
This is a wait-and-see for me.
Yeah. Corporate sponsorship for the purposes of "get us the hell out of this monopoly" is kinda how open source has worked so far.
Sometimes its fine. See: Linux
Thank you, an intelligent comment
Ea-nasir? I'm out.
Didn't he sell that dodgy copper way back when?
Yeah, as if finding FOSS alternatives to mega-corp software wasn't hard enough, now i have to care about the politics of a sponsor's co-sponsor's ceo's husband's dog's groomer before I install? Pass
I think this is a joke about the first copper-tier sponsor.
Oh no!
Not me!
I never lost control.
You're face
To face
With the man who sold the world.
Content not viewable in your region.
Could you provide an alternate link? Or maybe use the image button to upload it to your instance so it's out of the control of some corporation?
(Imgur deleted a bunch of content for the crime of not having a paid subscription, and they geoblock my country because the data protection commission threatened them with a fine for selling children's browsing history and they'd rather take it out on users than simply filter the accounts they auto-tagged as children out of the data they were selling. We left reddit for a reason. Imgur is no less moneygrabbing.)
