Good morning Fedi friends!

@_elena is that a @berlinfediday sticker? :D

@efialto thanks! so far so good... the only sad thing is that Vivaldi was being glitchy so I had to re-install Firefox (sigh)
@_elena dammit!
The ups and downs of Linux. Still better that being stuck on Chrome or (!) Opera. -

@_elena Pi 5 is quite fast for web browsing. Only bottleneck is the SD card, SSD is recommended way for better experience.
@jan my Pi 3 was sloooooooooow so my Pi 5 by comparison is like a Ferrari 😆

@_elena I am not very aware of the latests news on web browsers, what are the goods of Vivaldi? Or is it for the wrongdoings of Firefox lately (AI etc.)?
I may switch to Vivaldi and keep it even in the fight :)

@_elena yes, it's huge jump in performance! Enjoy, do you plan to do some blog posting about your experience?

@efialto Vivaldi has a built-in feature that blocks trackers and ads and they've taken a very public stance against AI. Plus they run a Fediverse instance.
Conversely, Firefox seems to want to put AI everywhere, its parent company bought and killed Pocket, they had a Fediverse instance that they discontinued... Needless to say I'm NOT a fan of Mozilla

@jan indeed. I'm not sure I will blog about it though... the SD card I'm using has seen quite a few life cycles... Ubuntu... then I wiped it to install Yunohost... then Debian... and now Ubuntu again.
I may invest in some extra microSD cards so I don't have to do all this...
