It looks like you're using a chromium-based browser like Google Chrome, Edge, Opera, Brave or something like that.

This site is barely designed to work with those browsers, so some things may look ugly. Why, you might ask, do I not care for these browsers?

While some of these browsers, like Brave, have completely detached themselves from Google, the fact is many of them are not open-source. This means that what you do on the internet can be collected without anyones knowledge. Google can say they don't collect certain data to sell to third-party companies, but what of your data that gets collected is obfuscated by the fact we can't view the code. Such browsers and the corporate shills that run them have zero accountability. Further, open-sourceness (which Brave is, I should note) is fundamental to indie developers. Groups like Google have billions of dollars to pump into developing huge scale systems and have been doing so for years. If you, an individual person, wanted to have your own web browser to play around with for fun or for learning, without open-source code you would have to build it from the ground up. Even with rendering packages at the ready this can take years. Open-source code lets people be as weird and creative with code as they want. For creativity and education reasons, you should switch to a Mozilla-based browser like Firefox, Waterfox, Pale Moon, Basilisk or (shameless plug) the Danknet Explorer. The code is always available for you to download, play around with, and make your own stuff any way you want. It allows for creativity in a way that proprietary software doesn't.

Open-source software puts education and creativity above profits. If Chrome became a paid service, and you wanted to use chrome you would have no choice but to pay. If Firefox, however, did that, their code is freely available for you to build your own copy, whether you modify it or not, meaning that there isn't any need to pay for the product. If all web browsers become non-open-source, there is a legitimate risk that these browsers may require users to pay for their services, or downgrade browsers to barely functional locking good features behind a paywal. Maybe it's not good publicity for Chrome to do that, but so long as an open-source browser exists, that is being actively maintained for security and functionality, such a paywall is impossible.

The last reason I'll mention here is that open-source software is essential for archival reasons. In 2020, flash died, and we lost our beloved games and animations. We can save those files, but with every OS update the things that play the files begin to become unstable. If flashplayer had been open-source a group like Ruffle could have taken all of that code, and focused efforts on maintaining it, instead of having to build it from the ground up.

If you support a free internet, privacy and transparency, accountability, education over profits, and archivist efforts consider supporting Mozilla and Moz-based browsers any way you can and move to using only open-source software where possible. Using Moz-based browsers instead of instead of a chromium-based ones is an important first step. And if you can, donate to the teams behind open-source software. Without Firefox the internet dies
