It's time for all of us who are or will be subject to Trump's Tariff attack to boycott as many American products and businesses as possible. Support local and then support products and businesses from Trump's other Tariff victims.

Today I updated Spamhammer to get rid of Fediverse Chick once and for all.
I do so wish Mastodon had moderation tools, like, *anything* really, that would make this drastic step unnecessary. Alas, here we are.

13 March 1924 | A Polish Jew, Moszek Najman, was born in Radom.
In #Auschwitz from 21 July 1942.
No. 50301
He perished in the camp on 11 August 1942.
I wonder if there is a correlation between the people so marked for early death and a particular Nazi guard or kapo on duty at their selection to enter the camps. Who punched defenseless people so brutally.

Friendship ended with Firefox: Floorp is my friend now
I had meant to try out Floorp ages back but never got around to it so now after the Mozilla situation is as good a time as any, is it a good Firefox based br...YouTube
Floorp is what I recommend to people, who insist on sticking with Firefox.
As you pointed out, the obvious, if Firefox goes, so will all these many Firefox clones, because none of them have expressed interest in hard-forking Firefox, and going independent.
But, Floorp has two advantages.
1) They do not break things. LibreWolf, will break something (often), then blame Firefox. Which only further hurts, Firefox, which in turn only hurts, LibreWolf. -- It is a snake eating its tail. I think the 1x Floorp broke something, they patched it right away, and they owned up to their issue. They did not try to pass the blame, as LibreWolf does.
2) Floorp is very similar to Vivaldi Browser. If Firefox, goes, it would be nice not to have a big learning curve, if you need to switch browsers. If you've learned Floorp, you've more or less learned, Vivaldi, in many ways.
These are two things, I believe can help users in the long run.

@Linux floorp is a nice browser, if somewhat needing a lot of tweaks. I use it as part of my isolated browsing system
Librewolf is my main personal browser and it hasn't really broken anything for me. I don't use it for streaming services or anything requiring DRM
There is 1 site that is buggy (canva) in librewolf (i use floorp for that) but everything else is fine so I don't know what people who have big problems with it are trying to do other than using DRM services
