Firefox of course :) It's the last one that has no compromises. As an example, Brave offers similar adblock and privacy features, but at the cost of having to put up with Web3 stuff. wbu?

The web browser.

Exactly. Music streaming works like this and it's doing fine. There's no reason why video streaming didn't go a similar route other than greed.

It's the opposite for me. X11 is unusable on my laptop because it doesn't support fractional scaling well, whereas on my desktop it doesn't allow for a multi monitor setup with different refresh rates. Both dealbreakers are not present with Wayland. Though your point still stands; NVIDIA GPUs continue to suck more with Wayland than X11 for example.

I think I like the direction they've been going in lately.

I think they're referring to the socks you're supposed to wear when programming :3

You can do that today with the FUTO keyboard lol. It uses a small language model for predictive text.

Brave Search, not because I like the company and their crypto/ai shenanigans but they have some nifty features and (supposedly) an independent index.

Native Wayland apps run great. Can't say the same about those using XWayland, as most of them suffer from graphical glitches and flickering (especially Steam and Minecraft). Secure Boot works with some manual configuration.
