Which of the following attributes would you most want your new browser to have, and which would you want least?

Twice as slow as your current browser

Is that a joke?

[–] Tacoma@feddit.org 17 points 3 months ago (1 children)

For me that was together with

A privacy-respecting AI assistant that makes your browser smarter by learning how you use it

So I don't really care how slow the browser is, as long as it doesn't have an AI "assistant" that is monitoring my browser usage

[–] RobotToaster@mander.xyz 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I wouldn't mind an AI assistant, as long as it's fully local.

Why would you want that in a browser? We have LLMs you can run local.

Can you let me have my own preferences? Am I allowed?

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Not at the cost of my experience. It should be a optional feature if anything

[–] jol@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 3 months ago

Agreed. If you don't want to use it it should just stay out of the way.
