Alas Poor Erinaceus@lemmy.mlto Firefox@lemmy.ml•Mozilla is shutting down Pocket, their read-it-later and content discovery app, and Fakespot, their browser extension that analyzes the authenticity of online product reviews.English82·2 months agoI kind of liked visiting https://getpocket.com/explore just to read some of the stories they had posted there, but oh well.
Is Mozilla on its last legs?

Alas Poor Erinaceus@lemmy.mlto DeGoogle Yourself@lemmy.ml•Getting unhappy about DuckDuckGoEnglish5·3 months agoI haven’t really experienced a worsening of DDG, and this is a bit off topic, perhaps, but—
I have yet to find a better alternative to Google’s video search. Google Books also remains valuable in many ways, since it will give you different “search inside the book”-type search results than the Internet Archive will (and they also have some books that IA does not).
What’s annoying to me is that StartPage, which is supposed to have Google search results, and by and large does, does not give the same video results as Google (go ahead, try it). It would also be nice to have an Invidious or FreeTube type front end for Google Books, and I believe there used to be something like that, but not any longer.
Some Google products still have definite value, it’s just important that they derive no benefit from us using them.

I’m assuming this is a FF thing and not a Librewolf one; why do you think they changed it? It was fine the way it was. Getting more and intolerant of small changes to things in my old age . . .
