Ah, thanks very much. I was a bit confused. I saw the star and immediately thought it was the upvote button, and thought the boost button looks like a share button. But than when I saw it was for 'boosting', I figured that an upvote is usually meant for boosting and that that's what the boost button was the equivalent of.
And Hey, I love your artworks and your artstyle so much! So you're now the first profile I've followed! You appeared up the top of the trending list for me.

@graves501 yes! TY for this, already set as my wallpaper, I do have a quick question, would it be ok if one was to make videos about Linux/how to's and the wallpaper showed up in the video?
@graves501 This is now the background of the lock screen of my Google Pixel tablet, I wanted to use it as the wallpaper but it is unfortunately too blue for that. Might do it on my Linux desktop even thought it lack the irony of the Pixel. 🎂
Epic. We must also protect adblockers, not just Firefox (which is important in its own way). Advertising has become completely untrustworthy with the use of extensive data tracking and such, and it's just irritating to see just how much companies are willing to exploit you just so you can buy whatever's on the screen now.
This sums up my feelings on the matter… I don't like everything Mozilla does, but my quibbles with them are far outweighed by my deep distrust of Google, and it does feel like a long, drawn out battle.
The circumstances for making this piece of art are unfortunate, but your end result is very pretty.

Une oeuvre qui représente tellement de choses en ces moments troubles, applicable au meilleur face aux pires, théologiquement, philosophiquement, humainement parlant de vérités et de libertés.
Je sais: j'en fais trop; mais la liberté peut au moins se targuée d'être illustrée avec bonté et beauté de façon admirable sous votre plume.
Merci...encore...et en cœur...encore et en chœurs...

Your work and philosophy has always been an inspiration to me. This piece is striking in depicting our struggle for the Net in way that's so relevant but keeps your trademark sense of fantasy and wonder.
I hope one day I can make work like this, that makes people feel and go "Wow", without being a preachy political cartoon.

Love your work, David. And it’s definitely not your fault that we live in the worst possible timeline but what’s missing in that image is the hand from Google giving Mozilla half a billion dollars.
(Mozilla exists on roughly half a billion dollars from Google every year. Sadly, they’re not so much adversaries as partners.)
Yes, I knew that. Thank you for writing this, it is useful information.
It's hard to show all the subtle interactions and I had to sit on my own issues with Moz/Ff - e.g. all their failed non-sense side projects or recently their AI discourse to seduce investors.
It's a limitation of my illustration that I kept it as simple as possible to be more efficient with the message: if we all used Firefox with UblockOrigin, the toxic adv industry wouldn't be such a monster.
> if we all used Firefox with UblockOrigin, the toxic adv industry wouldn't be such a monster
If we all used Firefox with UblockOrigin, Google would go bankrupt. When Google goes bankrupt, Mozilla would lose the half a billion dollars it needs from Google to survive so Mozilla would also go bankrupt. So the only way Mozilla and Firefox can continue to exist is if we don’t all use Firefox with UblockOrigin. That’s the gambit.
This is an amazing piece of artwork. Firefox in many ways feels like the last bastion before total chrome domination (ref browser engines), and that's such a scary thought.
Google has far too much power now in setting wen standards.
Amazing illustration! Nobody in my real life ever understands why Google's or Meta's internet monopolization is a problem, not even the ones familiar with tech at large.
@gub Merci ! Oui, bien vue pour le passage passé à la trappe du code binaire. j'avais en tête un champs de ces 0 et 1 et que le gros Chrome serait comme une moissoneuse de data en aspirant ça. Mais bon, ça faisait cliché, et ça s'intégrait assez mal dans l'aspect painting et touche du pinceau de l'illu. J'ai donc passé le calque à la trappe en cours de route. 😋

•Even though FOSS is far ahead in ethical values, people need an aesthetic narrative to switch.
Unfortunately it's hard to excite people with pure facts.
