They’re not browsers, but if you want lemmy in the terminal there’s Neon Modem Overdrive, which also handles Discourse forums and some other sites. For emacs there’s lem.el.

I don’t think there’s one that supports all of them yet. Probably the one that can handle the most is fedilab, which can handle mastodon and friendica, as well as a bunch of others like pixelfed, peertube, and pleroma. There’s also raccoon, which has separate apps for lemmy and friendica.

There’s also Midnight Lizard. It’s more powerful, but more resource intensive so I wouldn’t recommend on phones or older systems.

It was pretty heavily associated with the alt right a decade ago as it was getting more popular. Some alt right meme communities like frenworld and clown world were centered around it, with overtly fascist pepe variants. It’s gotten more popular in a lot of other circles, but if someone identifies enough with it to use as a profile picture I’d at least check their posting history.

Google is still appealing it, so at best that will happen next year. But yeah, they’re probably adjusting their budget in anticipation.

Mozilla is set up as a non-profit with a for profit company as a subsidiary. The corporate Mozilla handles working on Firefox, mostly using money from Google for setting it as the default search engine. Because of that separation I don’t think they can easily mix those two piles of money together.

There’s this section from their FAQ:

Don’t Mozilla products, like Firefox, earn income?

Firefox is maintained by the Mozilla Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Mozilla Foundation. While Firefox does produce revenue — chiefly through search partnerships — this earned income is largely reinvested back into the Corporation. The Mozilla Foundation’s education and advocacy efforts, which span several continents and reach millions of people, are supported by philanthropic donations.

There’s Mines3D on android, although the graphics are still 2d and it’s a pain to play.

Some other fediverse software like hubzilla and sharkey let you migrate posts, so I wouldn’t say it’ll never happen. I don’t think anyone is working on it though, so probably not anytime soon.

The biggest thing is probably non-destructive editing, so you can do stuff like apply filters without them changing the underlying image. Gtk3 should add better support for tablets and wayland. There’s also better layer tools and font support. A lot of it was on the backend, which should eventually allow for using other color spaces like cmyk natively.

It’s too bad that GLIMPSE fork never took off.

They’ve been working on porting it since back in 2012, and didn’t want to redo a bunch of the porting work before they even released it.

With AI upscaling it fills it in based on the training from other images/videos. So it probably won’t be an alien, but small details common in other videos that looked similar will also show up in the upscaled videos. If an extra flower shows up in a field of grass it’s usually not a big deal, but for some things like faces or symbols, small details can really change the way people interpret it.

Depending on the context it’s probably not that bad, but there’s plenty of details in youtube videos that people pay attention to, like in news, history, tutorials, educational content, and so on. Even for a fictional story, it could add nonsense that people assume is part of the actual show.

The problem with AI upscaling is that it does add something. It fills in the details with things that could plausibly be there, regardless of if they are. It’s especially dangerous if it’s used for something like security footage, where it’ll do stuff like make up a face based on a few pixels.

You might find a few, but it’s not really possible long term. Either you block instances that are run by fascists or child abusers, or you get blocked by instances for allowing that on your server.

None of the options are that great right now. I still mostly use Jerboa, and go to the PWA for things that don’t work. Other android apps you can check out are thunder that has an alpha out, memmy which only has an iOS beta so far, but plans to be cross-platform, and lemmur which is outdated and is incompatible with current lemmy, although there’s a fork with more recent development so it could possibly come back at some point.
