Why is this guy popping up so much lately on Lemmy? I remember thinking this guy was a piece of shit about a decade ago…
I haven’t kept up with the times. Was I right? Or did I become an angry old man 20 years to early?
You could just watch the video
Watching the video is unlikely to answer my question.
It is quite the opposite. It will answer your question in it’s first 30secs. Even reading the other comments here will. Lol.
Quite literally the opposite. The first minute does not answer my question about why he has been appearing all over lemmy. Neither do the comments here.
Sure he’s trying to degoogle. Hence this post, but that is not what I asked.
Unclear if you’re a troll or just choosing to be dense…
You might be trolling. Good luck leading your life with that wit.
Ah, clearly a degen troll. My lemmy will be a better place with you on the block list.
Crazy to see how much people on here hate this guy
yeah, super weird how people hate a fascist
I don’t mean this in a mean way, honestly curious – fascist how? As far as I know he made a couple of distasteful jokes a decade ago and apologized for it. Not great but we should stop using words like fascist and Nazi unless we can back it up.
that is not his list, just a random screenshot.
Yeah i just checked the video and it appeared for like 2 seconds as a side note. He never even tried Brave apparently.
probably just his editor put it for the video
Never seen anoyone rank brave alongside or even above standard firefox.
No Mull?
Stop sharing and platforming the nazi
Also, this tierlist sucks fucking balls
Oh god how are there so many of you freaks
.ml is full of freaks, and so many instances do not defederate for some ungodly reason… I say make the freaks have to leave their comfort zone if they want to engage with real people.
Instance-based tribalism is stupid. I’d expect as much from a .world-er 🙃
You’re not proving me wrong here, chief.
Sarcasm, captain.
Seeing a lot of criticisms. Is there a better tier list then?
Ngl, feel like his tier list is based on usability while avoiding big tech.
Tbh even if this tierlist is not the best or great, it still is “good enough”. Plus the most important thing is to get tons of people interested.
I rather have “good enough” tier list that reaches to millions of people, then have a perfect tierlist that only reaches out to less than a dozen people.
Because amongst the millions of people who are interested, thousands of them will do their own research into privacy and dig deeper into it.
Plus right now, the biggest weakness of privacy is the fact that our community is too small to make an impact.
Having someone give this much outreach and influence to attract attention towards privacy is a good thing. (well, as long as their advice are on the positive end of the spectrum, and pewdiepie’s advise surely is, even if its not perfect)
Sir, this is 2025, we don’t do nuanced opinions here anymore.
No Zen-Browser (though I am not sure when this vid was made), and Pale Moon should be in the “Not ideal for a normal human” at best.
Putting Cromite at the bottom most tier makes me discard the entire thing.
And Brave at the top lmao.
This dude poopoopie has always been garbage.
Your comment made me look at the list again. I didn’t even realise Brave is located at the very top.
Also, why is “not ideal for a normal human” at the middle of the list?
Garbage, indeed.
It’s not his list, yet you goons shit on him like it is. Didn’t watch the video, just came to hate without context… Sad.
Doesn’t matter if it is his list nor did I ever say it was garbage because it is his.
It is garbage, objectively.
and ‘it’ isn’t a part of the video.
This is a random screenshot he used in hos video for roughly 2 seconds. This is not his tierlist.
I’ve looked into it and it’s not even his tier list, just one he found online.
I kinda think Floorp is better than waterfox
Floorp is amazing
I’m considering switching to Floorp, I’ll need to check of Pewdiepie has his reasons and what those are.
Vivaldi is somehow on top of Floorp so I’d say his reasons are laughable at best.
He barely touches on the topic of browsers, it’s like 40 second segment, i don’t think he even made the tier list.
Brave 🤮
Superiority complex in the comments.
That’s a good find that famous people are getting into FOSS (should be free as in freedom too). But it’s really not a good thing that they spread a non expert speaking to the crowd.
Tier lists are meant to be mainly subjective and pretty relative to the person that made it. In that way Pewdipie could quote experts but in no case should make a tier list based on what he found the last weeks (I didn’t fully watched the video so maybe I’m wrong and he made a big disclaimer)
If you watch the video, Felix tells you twice in the same sentence that he uses Arch.
Lemmy had taught me that this means Felix IS an expert on FOSS
How sorry didn’t know, so that make him really one of the biggest expert in FOSS 100%
