Valid concern as I use their browser often. From their FAQ (link):

I’m considering adding it to the alternatives list I posted. Can anybody else validate their privacy policy? Seemd ok but I’m a bit iffy regarding their use of telemetry. Maybe I’m overthinking it

Thank you. Something I would absolutely consider

Understanding the problems you’ve outlined, can the positive functionality of this platform be replicated? I mean, we’re on the fediverse (?) here and it’s a decentralized platform but it’s not geography close-knit. I think having neighbors talk would be a net positive for society but nextdoor obviously seems like it replicates the worst of social media

I’m excited for these to mature but they are still developing and would not recommend them for regular use

It took them 147 days to fix this?!?

Asahi is made for Apple Silicon Macs! Try it out. Super easy to install and daily-drivable (Good battery, display, audio).

PSA: MacOS 15.3 not only turned on Apple Intelligence, but it also changed my privacy settings to allow “learning” in apps where in had it turned off before.

I guess Asahi gets to become the default boot now
