It’s from Karachi, so doesn’t officially count, but still.

Went to a drink store (Getränke Markt) in Aachen, Germany today. To my surprise I saw that all local soda brands were almost sold out(Fritz, Afri, Sinalco) and Coca Cola was almost not touched. I was very pleasantly impressed by this. Seems like more people are joining with the small consumer choices to buy from EU rather than US. Do more people notice this elsewhere?

The US, grappling with an egg shortage, is reaching out to Lithuania for egg exports after Finland declined. The situation has prompted ridicule online.

This is a Firefox fork from a Spanish group.

Pros

• privacy focused
• default search is their own Searx instance
• default integrated Oblivious http (toggle off)
• uses Next.dns (cannot be changed though, and I can't find documentation of the implementation)

Cons

• updates can be irregular
• they seem a bit opaque as to funding
• no about:config, if it's not in the settings you ain't getting it.
• may use Google Safebrowsing directly (instead of the Firefox version), it's very hard to tell
• the website is fucking garbage, stock photos/images on a lot of it, many links go to the same place

Other

• originally goes back to 2007, however it was sold in 2019 to the Astian Foundation. Then became a Firefox fork
• https://astian.org/
• Github for releases https://github.com/goastian/midori-android (also available from their site)

Seems to be a middle ground between Firefox and Ironfox on Android. I use it occasionally when it is up to date just to spread my browsing around. Obtanium reminded me today that there was an update.
