    It’s good to see they still somewhat care about privacy after going on that little “add more AI” spree.

      All the AI (except for one opt-in feature that lets you choose what service to use) is on-device, so although It’s not really necessary, you can’t really say it’s bad for privacy.

        Also, the one feature I’ve come across (long press a link for a preview) is actually pretty useful sometimes. I’m actually impressed they discovered a use for generative AI that isn’t annoying and stupid.

      it’s hard to blame them: the entirety of technology is trying to adopt AI due to all of the money that’s being flashed at them for doing so; our entire economy is based on it right now.

    Finally, I’ve wanted this for ages but forks like Tor and Mullvad always took the fingerprinting defense too far (with no option to tone it down).

      That’s why browsers like Librewolf exist.

      Tor Browser and Mullvad Browser are not supposed to be tampered with, else you just defeated their purpose.
