In this one, we have #Firefox adding some data collection (but it's fine, IMO), we have a ton of stuff happening around AI, and it's still an absolute nightmare, we have the Linux Kernel 6.9 (nice), and #France banning #TikTok in one of its territories, which alarmed a bunch of human rights / freedom associations:
The search for a slim, fast and modern browser might have come to an end. Ungoogled-chromium feels just like what I want. Even better than Vivaldi. But the setup process is a bit more nerdy.
Setzt "browser.translations.select.enable" unter about:config in #Firefox 126 auf true, dann bekommt ihr schon jetzt die native selektive Übersetzungsfunktion!
Dans les notes de version de #Firefox 126 : la possibilité de copier une url dans la barre d'adresse en supprimant tous les paramètres de suivi/pistage.
(cette url a d'ailleurs été obtenue en utilisant cette option, supprimant la chaîne "/?utm_source=firefox-browser&utm_medium=firefox-desktop&utm_campaign=about-dialog".
Un UTM (ou Urchin Tracking Module) est un paramètre d'URL qui effectue le suivi d'une campagne marketing, par exemple : provenance, canal...)
Few months back #Microsoft Teams stopped supporting #Linux, and their nasty argument was "you can use our web app from your browser". Today I got this in my browser which is #Firefox.
Unfortunately I have to use Microsoft Teams because my university and the audience all have contract with Microsoft 🙄
Yeah, keep fooling yourself that :microsoft: ❤️ :linux:
By blocking TwiXter since it switched to “X dot com” hours ago, Mozilla Firefox prove once more it is the superior web browser and that Mozilla care about your mental health.
O, ex-#Twitter znowu ma problemy u niektorych osob - u jednych nie dziala bez zadnego dokladniejszego komunikatu, a u innych ponoc problemem jest wlaczona ochrona sledzenia w #Firefox 🙃
WTF is wrong with the people at #Mozilla? I don’t care how much they say they’ve anonymized the personal data #Firefox grabs - this just makes them look like every other privacy-invading enshittified company.
A #Mozilla continua na sua senda de afugentar todos os utilizadores que ainda confiam no #Firefox: https://blog.mozilla.org/en/products/firefox/firefox-search-update/
Ao menos é possível desligar toda a telemetria, mas a que foi acrescentada está ligada à mais básica que ainda podia ser enviada (telemetria técnica). Desliguem a opção com as instruções que cuja hiperligação esta na publicação partilhada. #PrivacyFirst
The funny part about the removal of networking from the default #keepassxc package on #debian, is that they did it for "security" reasons, without thinking that the MOST INSECURE way to transfer a #password to your #browser is via the CLIPBOARD. Absolutely every running app or service can read the clipboard! And yet, that's the default way they expect users to do it now!
Another one: What do people use for reading out loud articles? At best on #Android? I find that #Pocket has really robotic voice, #ReadAloud has terrible #UX and I just miss the way this works in #MSEdge.
@MichalBryxi Ngl, nowadays I just copy the link to #MicrosoftEdge and use that. Until #Firefox gets nicer voice options, it's always going to be the way.
@rothschopf ja das ist wiederum ein anderes Problem aber zB #Firefox, der dies zulässt, ist auch auf #iOS installierbar und darauf die erwähnten #Plugins:
Oh oh la nouvelle version de #Firefox apporte ça : «the zstd directive of the Content-Encoding HTTP header is now supported, allowing decoding of server-sent content encoded with the #Zstandard compression algorithm».
Sympa comme amélioration !
I'm having a hell of a day with Firefox today (and part of yesterday). Since 126.0 was released many websites make Firefox crash (for example opening images here in Mastodon but also a Grafana dashboard and others). All in Gnome with Wayland and Ubuntu 24.04. Are other people having the same issues? #Firefox#Ubuntu#Wayland#Gnome
Sheesh, Mozilla has really lost their way. Putting ads in the search bar? We already have a search engine that does that, we don't need two running at the same time.

I mostly use #Brave now (with the shit turned off) because #Firefox was degrading in performance and stability, and became unusable on my cheap mobile. For now that's ok.
That #Mozilla are doing this is very sad. I am though hopeful better days are coming, with new ecosystems based on #p2p that will bypass the enclosure and unleash the next generation of openeness & creativity.
I'm literally working on a demo to publish and browse websites on #Autonomi, so it's not just work thinking.
