i had enough of mozilla when i was browsing nostr and people pasted widevine DRM using spotify links that blocked me from screenshotting my browser

instead i would get some random repeating sequence of colours instead of my own browser

and it would affect other tabs as well, it blocked me taking screenshots of my whole screen

this does not happen when you disable it. fine

but when you disable it, every time one of these preview links appears in your current app there is a snackbar that begs you to enable DRM

this is universal, librefox, firefox, and i'm sure all of them do this

the fact that you never heard of this before is because you never listened to someone who actually knows what is going on and got burned bad wasting time and frankly, nagging me to re-enable DRM is just beyond the pale

when i disable DRM video decoding on brave, or even chcrome, it never nags me

so, idk, you can make your own judgement but i'm completely enraged by this behaviour and the waffling apologies i hear from all sorts, and by this i include people like laser and darthcoin who both promote this shitty mozilla shit

and you are old enough to remember, surely, who mozilla is

yeah, netscape

and if you remember that shit, they dominated the internet and enshittified it really badly for most of the first decade of this century
