This question was inspired by my hatred of Temporal Anti-Aliasing which, in many games nowadays, is poorly used as a performance bandaid. On lower resolutions it will smudge and blur the image and certain bad cases of TAA will cause visible ghosting.

Yet in spite of all this, certain games won’t let you turn it off or have hair/fur/foliage look like dogshit without it so sometimes I still use it.

    Browsers. Firefox hasnt given me reason to doubt. Yet. And I find that odd. Still uses it. Because every other big browser have given me reasons.

    Generally “free” stuff from big companies is giving me more and more the heebie-jeebies. Even if they have good reputation. But there’s NO WAY I could ever pay for everything I use. Nor donate to every deserving person who has given their free time to create and publish FOSS.

      Mozilla really pushes Pocket through Firefox. I’ve gone through the about:config to get rid of it. Pocket gives me doubts.

        They also push their VPN a lot. Every week or two I open Firefox and they send me to their VPN page on their website telling me to try it.

        Like no. I’m not interested in paying for a rebranded mullvad.

          I can understand your frustration, but they need to generate revenue somehow, and presently I think it’s the VPN, donations, and Google default search money.

          At least the VPN aligns with their core values.
