What is something you dislike but still begrudgingly use? (lemmy.ml)

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.

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 recommend Librewolf. It's a privacy focused fork of firefox. They apply their own patches to every new firefox release so you always have the newest features of firefox minus the bloat.

Comes preinstalled with ublock-origin, no Telemetry, no Mozilla VPN, no pocket, no prompts to create a mozilla account, no ads on the start page, default search engine is ddg and deletes all cookies (exept for whitelisted sites) on launch.

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.
