(and ) begins phasing-out Manifest v2.

https://blog.chromium.org/2024/05/manifest-v2-phase-out-begins.html

This means, among other things, that uBlock Origin is about to be disabled in Chrome. Google will choose a different extension to recommend but it can not be as effective as Origin.

Following 's example, may I instead recommend you switch to .

Firefox will continue to support Manifest v2, and consequently uBlock Origin and other extensions that can not be implemented with Manifest v3.

Happy browsing.

This is turning out to be the most annoying part of : moving tabs. It's just slow compared to Chrome, the windows get in the way all the time with Firefox's logic.

Someone has done a demonstration video about this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRuBDH32hPI

blu, to Vivaldi

Around this time, a year ago, I started using @Vivaldi as main browser on my work computer. The tiling tabs and web panels are very convenient for daily tasks. Too bad about the code analysis of websites, which I prefer the way Firefox handles it, but it's legacy of Chromium. Since I work on web design I have to use at least two browsers anyway, so this is a minimal problem.

Nice. Habe endlich einen Regelsatz für uBlock Origin gefunden, der YouTube Shorts zuverlässig entsorgt. Damit kann ich wieder eine Extension aus rauswerfen, die ich bisher dafür genutzt habe.

Possible minor Firefox gripe: nothing about the installation UX for Firefox Containers tells me that I need to explicit opt to sync my containers from my Mozilla Account.

You need to open its extension menu and go through the FTUX or opt for it in settings.

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren, bitte lesen Sie sich den folgenden Artikel genau durch Punkt es geht um die Firma #Mozilla und dem Browser #Firefox.

Laut dem Artikel verstößt Mozilla massiv gegen Datenschutzgesetze. Nutzer werden ausspioniert, ohne dass diese sich wehren können.

Vielen Dank für ihre Bemühungen.

Is #firefox really the best way to sign a #pdf document on #linux with a touchscreen? I somehow cannot believe that even after trying 5 different programs...

Wygląda na to, że #YouTube spadł z rowerka.

I nie, nie chodzi od blokowanie reklam. Wyłączyłem Firefoxową "ochronę przed śledzeniem" i uBlock Origin.

Po prostu nie działa 🤷‍♂️

On PC it seems only #Chrome and #Firefox offer no frills non bloated #browsers anymore.

Maybe the Duck duck Go browser, but it lacks the things I actually do count as essential (syncing across platforms).

Anyway, all other browsers seem chock full of bloat, cramming the browser full of features I will never use.

Hi folks, I need with a possible infection in on . After accidentally visiting a spammy website I am getting suspicious and short-lived windows with a grey border in the corner of the screen. Their text seems to always starts with (A). The first one was ostensibly about Norton, this one McAfee. Tough to verify any fix since they only appear once in a while; I did get a photo of one:

Please advise me!

Today's KDE Plasma 6 mystery: why don't Firefox and Thunderbird remember their window size/position anymore?

OpenSUSE Tumbleweed has done something weird again. Maybe I'm not cut out for a rolling release.

Looking for help from and / or Apple Mac people.

I have before me an old MacBook Pro running 10.13.6. It can't be upgraded because of hardware constraints.

No browser on this device will render the schedule here: https://www.emfcamp.org/schedule/2024

I see JS console errors like "TypeError: Object.groupBy is not a function"

I've tried , , and .

Is it possible a script on that page relies on an OS feature this machine lacks?

Firefox Tip of ze day :

  • Sur mon laptop, je ne parvenais pas à ajouter ZoTop comme moteur de recherche, en usant de la méthode classique de sélection de l'url/click-droit/ajouter à la recherche.
  • J'ai ZoTop en moteur de recherche par défaut sur ma station de travail.
  • J'ai chopé le fichier search.json.mozlz4 de la conf du FF de ma station pour remplacer celui du laptop
  • Ça fonctionne, ZoTop est parmi les moteurs utilisables sur le FF du laptop.

Is anybody familiar with this particular addon? How exactly does it work?

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tab-session-manager/

I'm looking for an addon that will allow me to have re-openable windows/sessions that I can just save and close and come back to months later with everything still intact, so that I can clean up my horrific adhd pile of open-but-unused tabs by boxing up batches of tabs that are meant for one project or another.
