Welcome to /c/SoftwareGore!

This is a community where you can poke fun at nasty software. This community is your go-to destination to look at the most cringe-worthy and facepalm-inducing moments of software gone wrong. Whether it's a user interface that defies all logic, a crash that leaves you in disbelief, silly bugs or glitches that make you go crazy, or an error message that feels like it was written by an unpaid intern, this is the place to see them all!

Remember to read the rules before you make a post or comment!

Just leave opera before that

To repost an old comment:

Others said it's spyware, but they are also loan scammers.

I honestly don't know what data this browser exfiltrates, or what else malicious it might do, but I don't trust anyone this shady to run proprietary code on my devices. Scammers rarely respect any kind of boundaries.

Yup, and if you want a browser made by some of the OG opera devs before it became what it is now, I really like https://vivaldi.com/

[–] OmegaLemmy@discuss.online 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I used to use Vivaldi, I switched to Zen though

[–] kautau@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Interesting, looks a bit like Arc at first glance, I’ll check it out!

[–] TanteRegenbogen@feddit.org 0 points 2 weeks ago

I use opera gx only for Youtube and FB. For everything else I got apps or my pc. Browser on PC is not Opera.

[–] asudox@discuss.tchncs.de 18 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Why do you use Opera? Let alone Opera GX? Do you need a "gaming" (???) browser on your phone?

[–] TanteRegenbogen@feddit.org -4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

On my phone it is the least resource intensive browser. Also I am not as security fanatical as many people on the fediverse are. I got scripts for blocking trackers though.

Gib Addresse, kriegst ein Handy mit Android 15+ und genug Ressourcen für FF.

[–] TanteRegenbogen@feddit.org 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Bin bestimmt irgendwann in den nächsten sechs Monate wieder bei dir in der Gegend. Aktuell geht es noch. Aber langsam kommen die Altersprobleme. Hatte überlegt Shiftphone zu holen oder irgendwas wo custom OS haben kann.

[–] asudox@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Es gibt auch Fairphones, die für ihre Reparierbarkeit bekannt sind. Übrigens kann man auch eine andere Betriebssystem als stock Android installieren.

[–] TanteRegenbogen@feddit.org 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Shiftphone ist glaub ich auch für Nachhaltigkeit konzipiert.

[–] asudox@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Yep, seht so aus. Ich wollte nur bekannt geben, dass Fairphones auch eine gute Option sind.

[–] urheber@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 2 days ago

oder halt gebraucht auf eBay nen altes handy was guten ROM support hat. sehr günstig.

[–] lurch@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Sounds like a feature, because there is no likeable content on FB. Therefore it's safe to assume people hitting that little icon want to download it.

[–] TanteRegenbogen@feddit.org 2 points 2 weeks ago

There is some likeable content, but the crappy algorithm wants you to see reactionary boomer shit 80% of the time. Post in background was about various sexualities, picturing a hetero couple, a gay couple, a lesbian couple and what I assume is a couple where one person is possibly nonbinary. Rather wholesome. But after zuccs announcement, I am not having facebook to keep in touch with family in a far away country anymore. They should get Signal if they wanna keep in touch.
