Gente, stamattina in ufficio:
- Edge, morto 💀
- Chrome, morto 💀
- Firefox, funzionante ma non consente ricerche con Google 🤕

...
Stiamo usando TUTTI Firefox con DuckDuckGo (e scusate se godo un po')

Chronique d'une soudaine envie de #degooglisation (partielle) #workinprogress

Hier, après la lecture de la bande dessinée #ContraChrome, je me suis décidé à aller un peu plus loin dans mes alternatives à ce mastodonte intrusif.
Depuis pas mal de temps, j'utilisais déjà #firefox comme navigateur mobile, mais j'avais pas encore passé le pas sur le PC. C'est fait aujourd'hui, et synchronisé (oh, tiens, comme pour #Chrome comme c'est bizarre 😄)

Très instructif, merci pour le partage, mais la dernière case de la planche 19 : pourquoi ?

Si quieres saber más sobre lo que Google #chrome está haciendo a tus espaldas, te recomiendo leer este cómic web #contrachrome se lee rápido y explica a la perfección cómo este navegador se ha convertido en una amenaza para la #privacidad y la #democracia

Ayy Google quien te ha visto y quien te ve.

Comparto #ContraChrome un comic web sobre cómo el navegador de Google se convirtió en una amenaza para la #privacidad y la #democracia

@lfajardo, ¡brutal! Aún sabiendo todo lo que comenta, es impactante. Gran trabajo de @leah con #contrachrome.

✨ So here it is, my webcomic #ContraChrome has been translated into Mandarin! 🎉

👉 https://contrachrome.com/cn01 🇨🇳

I'm deeply grateful to @tuatarara and @unperson, who have taken months of their time to carefully adapt and elevate the material with a rare sense for detail.

One last time, I will follow this up with an announcement in Mandarin – feel free to boost it to Chinese-speaking corners of the Fediverse. :fediverse: :sharesloved:

At the same time, 🇵🇱 Polish, 🇳🇱 Dutch and 🇬🇷 Greek were no random picks – all three have been community requests I had to turn down, with a heavy heart.

You see, I have been working on #ContraChrome for over two years now, and tbh thought that releasing it on April 1st would be my final official act.

I’m so grateful beyond words for the tidal wave of enthusiasm that ensued, yet six months and six translations later – I'm starting to realize I'm really tired.

Hah, worst kept secret 😅

The last #ContraChrome translation is really going to be in Mandarin 🇨🇳

An announcement will follow soon!

Next week's last official #ContraChrome translation will be in one of these languages:

A huge thank you to @jackc@kompost.cz from the Czech Pirate Party for translating and proof-reading time and time again!✨

I will follow this announcement up with a post in Czech - feel free to boost this to Czech-speaking corners of this rapidly expanding Fediverse! :fediverse:

Moc děkuji and thank you for not reading this on #Chrome!

It’s funny that I’m just the opposite of the #TwitterMigration people who are #newHere:

I have been in the #Fediverse for more than five years, but last month was my very first contact with #Twitter for my #ContraChrome campaign.

I’m aware I’m preaching to the converted here, but boy, what a disaster!

1/n

Join the crowd at @cbase in #Berlin tonight for an evening of internet politics ("Netzpolitischer Abend"), where my webcomic #ContraChrome will also be discussed.

The event will be streamed here:
https://digitalegesellschaft.de/2022/10/121-netzpolitischer-abend/

During the event, In about two hours, there will be a Q&A with me here on #Mastodon - possibly a lot in German, but English questions are very welcome as well.

The hashtag for questions will be #NPA121 - see you there!

@jgbarah

The true awesome feature that (AFAIK) only #Firefox no other #browser has is CTRL/cmd + SHIFT + N to restore the previous window/set of tabs.

This saved my life several times.

Why doesn’t #Mozilla flex this cool thing instead of sharing such basic and dull “hacks”?

#ContraChrome #DeathToWebKit

Wow @geoma I love it!

Thank you so much for all the time and effort that went into animating #ContraChrome! 🎬✨

I also _love_ the fact that visually impaired and blind people can now experience my work!

Take a look everyone:

(And if you'd like to fiddle with @geoma's files to change the language/music/animations, feel free to contact them!)

⭐ A public comic-as-a-service announcement:

I will soon post a Spanish announcement and will be happy about every boost. :fediverse:

[redraft due to typo in link, sorry]

⭐ Another week, another language!

🇮🇹 #ContraChrome in Italian can finally be found at:

Very special thanks to @gualdo and every helping hand at the Copernicani Association for all the hard work. 🙏 💕
Thank you @lealternative for spreading the word, and to @Madmonkey for the friendly support! ✨

Mille grazie!

A new #ContraChrome interview with @framasoft about #privacy activism, the secret of good #comics, and the best #browser for looking up muffin recipes:

(In French)

So I decided to do a limited appearance on Birdsite :birdsite:

Yeah, I know.

But with so many people giving their time to help w/ various translations of #ContraChrome, it feels like a matter of respect to widen the audience as much as possible, at least for a limited amount of time.

If you happen to be on :birdsite: yourself, I would be happy about any :boost: or 💙, so that this fresh, blank account can get some traction.

I‘m @contrachrome over there.

Never been there, wish me luck! 🍀

And BTW, the 🇬🇧 and 🇩🇪 versions of #ContraChrome have been updated - mostly eliminated typos that attentive readers like @schnullerilli @jakob@soc.schuerz.at discovered.

Thanks to everyone who took the time pointing them out to me! 🔍
