You could use ungoogled chromium or iridium browser, browsers less knowledged (they don't need youtubers to be adversited), and works good, plus ungoogled chromium is literally chrome without google, and iridium is brave but without all their crypto bullshit and lies.

Just wanted to share the video about why Firefox is important for open web and why you should use Firefox based browser instead of Chromium.

You mean like Iron, Epic, or Iridium? Privacy focused chromium has been around almost as long as chromium has.

Anyone have any feedback about the iridium browser? Seems kinda similar to Brave but without the crypto nonsense. Haven't really tried it yet though.

An Open Letter to the FreeBSD Foundation, Core Team, Committers, and Community

Agreed.
I don't think the PR reviewer is calling the author in the example, and provided useful info, pointing out the relevant example.
Also, the author notes:
> The very first comment in the thread from a reviewer was simply only one word: “Why?” - That’s it, just one word. Why did I do this? Why work with such old hardware? Why is the sky blue? How the hell am I to know the context of what they’re referring to when asking a one-worded question?
Its clear from https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-ports/pull/189#discussion... that the author is asking why is this line needed, something a PR author should always be able to justify.

Say you really want to pin to Apache 2.5.54. Create a new empty repo, add a www/apache24 dir, and copy the files from that version of the ports tree into it.

As for announcements: how would this information be delivered to you? :) Major breakages that impact users are expected to tracked in Ports (not pkgs) through review of /usr/ports/CHANGES and /usr/ports/UPDATING. If a port gets renamed (moved), you'll find it mentioned there, or possibly in /usr/ports/MOVED (not human-readable). You can view those on the GitHub mirror if you wish, since not everyone builds from Ports: https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-ports
