The AI bullshit all over this game is extremely concerning. If this isn't pushed back on, it's going to become an industry trend.

I got a retroid pocket ages ago. Thing's been in a drawer since day 1. Feels incredibly clunky, both hardware and software. It just feels like a cheap toy.

I have an analog pocket now that does everything I wanted the retroid for much better, and even though it's not quite the same form factor, the steam deck is an emulation beast too.

True true. There's also GrapheneOS's Vanadium browser to keep an eye on, but so far I don't think it's usable outside of GOS without jumping through some hoops. Personally not a fan of Chromium-based browsers so I haven't done much digging outside of the Firefox ecosystem though tbf.

Just to clarify, Fennec is a privacy-focused fork, kind of in the same vein as libreWolf but not as extensive. Since LW isn't available on mobile, Fennec seems to be the next best thing.

I can't really think of any browsers that have all the features OP is looking for. FF (+forks) is probably the closest thing out there.

I posted this over on the other site.

The kickstarter mentions a few names but it doesn't seem like Kurvitz or any had any involvement in this, and one of the leads of this project is an AI techbro consultant claiming he was one of the original creators. And yep, Longdue sued one of the original writers and won.

This one's a HARD pass.

This is the only team out of this fallout that's worth keeping an eye on imo. The other teams feel like they're just trying to ride the hype for the money.

Don't worry, by running it at 480p with upscaling and stuffing it full of weird AI-generated fake frames, you'll barely notice the difference!
