Hey there, this is gonna be a really long rant, so sit down, get a good drink and food, and relax.

I was debating on if I should post this here, or on c/libre, but I think here works better as this is general technology discussion.

Let me just say, Apple is an absolutely deluded and bat shit insane company, but MacOS is something special in my opinion, and I think that Apple themselves are holding it back.

Making the system as a whole proprietary, locked down and forcing people to provide so much information it'd make Facebook blush.

The OS itself works well, but the privacy implications of using MacOS, just like Windows, are absolutely insane to think about.

Apple, with their silicon valley pilled lies, have been preaching MacOS as a perfect, private safe haven for millions of users, but are of course, talking out of their ass.

Apple collects a similar amount of data to Google and Facebook, with MacOS being a victim of those actions.

They do it for one reason and one reason only, money. Apple is a trillion dollar company, crazy to think that they are worth more than the amount of money some countries make.

They've been pulling back a good looking Operating System by making it proprietary and trying to stop people from making a nice old hackintosh system (especially with their new updates), and they've been trying way too hard to stop people from installing third party applications and stores (this is not just an issue on iOS!)

MacOS has a good layout, is simple to use, and has support for so many apps that I WISH Linux would have, but Apple has been putting this Operating System on a proprietary leash, just like they do with iOS, and it has gotta stop.

I would like to imagine a world where MacOS is more like Linux distros, being open source and privacy friendly. It works similarly in so many ways, but Apple has made it so limited and annoying with their malicious, greedy practices, and it's sad to see.

Because of this, MacOS will never compare to Linux in my honest opinion, and I'd recommend people use that over MacOS, especially if you don't have supported hardware.

You can even make your Linux system look like MacOS if you wanna, a simple search will get you to find out how.

Thanks for taking the time to read my post, hope some people agree with me.

Grab some popcorn, get a nice drink, and sit down, guys gals and non binary pals, because oh boyyyyyy, have I got a story for you.

Section one: """"private"""" advertising. Modzilla decided to incredibly stupid recently, you wanna know how? They added checks notes """"privacy"""" preserving advertising in their browser, which is the exact same thing that brave has got hate for, for obvious reasons.

Privacy cannot be achieved while advertisements are being shoved down our throats. This theory, that ads can be privacy friendly, is what corporations want us to believe and it is a disgusting view that goes against the very reality we find ourselves living in.

Direction to an advertiser isn't privacy friendly, as the advertisers themselves are not. Why is Modzilla adding advertisements to Firefox? Because they are getting desperate. They want to make sure that their big daddy CEO gets millions while we have to put up with the the bullshit that we all moved away from Chrome because of.

Section two: a telemetry and moral nightmare, teaming up with zionist bastards. Firefox turns on telemetry by default that goes straight back to Google. Guess what Google is doing about the war in Gaza right now? Funding it, the genocide of innocent people and making sure they are being killed. By allowing this telemetry we are thereby allowing Google to make money off of it and as such: Israel, the worst enemy of anyone with common sense, money.

Section three: teaming up with vladdy daddy (vladimir putin). You heard me right. Firefox is teaming up with the Russian Federation to stop people from forming their own opinion on the Ukraine war, therefore proving that they are extremely pro censorship. They've already stated before that they're willing to collaborate with western shills, but this is just the cherry on top of the cake.

Section four: the mortal enemy of the revolution must be avoided. Modzilla is a corporation, corporations are the enemy of the revolution. Modzilla abuses their developers and they have been found bullying disabled people behind closed doors. If we want a revolution to happen, then the least we can do is avoid the companies with blood on their hands, and like it or not, Modzilla is one of them.

Section five: what should I use instead? Glad you asked, if it isn't already obvious, I personally recommend only one browser: Librewolf. For a DeGoogled android operating system, I recommend you use Vandium, it's a browser made by the people over at the GrapheneOS project and it's amazing. For iOS? You aren't private, but I would recommend using Snowhaze.

Section six: wait, what does Modzilla have to do with politics? Ironically, a lot of things. They perhaps unintentionally, but still do fund the zionist project, by aiding Google. They are an extremely disgusting company that has hopped on the AI trend that silicon valley has adopted. They are joining Chrome in becoming a monopoly in themselves, and Modzilla is a corporation that has major donations from some of the most evil companies in the world.

Regardless of this negative rant, I hope you enjoyed the post, and please consider using another browser since it will be much better for you!

"Privacy" for normies is.... Weird. You should use FOSS software... NOW!!

Using the Jewish community as an excuse to censor opposition to the genocide in Palestine is an absolutely horrible idea.
