A 50-something French dude that’s old enough to think blogs are still cool, if not cooler than ever. I also like to write and to sketch.

  • Mullvad are like a drop of hope in humanity in a sea of shitty and shady business practices.

    Alas, VPNs are quite high on the endangered species. Largely thx to countless clueless, when they’re not plain full dishonest and working in their very own interest, representatives doing their best to make our societies a much shittier place for the rest of us.



  • Trust is hard to gain, very easy to lose. And much harder to regain, once its lost.

    I have been a Firefox user since… its Mosaic days. And even after Chrome became a thing, FF remained my default choice. It was just my browser, I would shrug at anyone telling me Chrome was so much better.

    Alas, their recent switch in regards to data/ads and after that their focus on AI, after a few previous decisions of them that quite worried me too, convinced me to do what I had never imagined I would do: replace FF as my default browser.

    I now use Waterfox, and if Firefox is still installed on my Linux box I have not used it since (I’m a liar: I clicked it once, out of habit). I just don’t feel comfortable using it, it’s not my browser anymore. It’s just a browser, like Chrome or Edge, some corp is trying to force feed me, and to screw me with. Thx, but no.

    I would love to see FF change path and regain my trust. But this will take some efforts.
