Sichere und datenschutzfreundliche Browser - Teil 2: Nach Anpassung der Konfiguration sind Durchschnittsnutzer mit den Desktop-Browsern Brave und Firefox gut bedient. 👇
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 #uBlock Origin.
Following #Google's example, may I instead recommend you switch to #Firefox.
Firefox will continue to support Manifest v2, and consequently uBlock Origin and other extensions that can not be implemented with Manifest v3.
Dies sind #Firefox 'Alternativen' um sich sicherer Daten minimal im Internet zu bewegen. Dies sind #Librewolf für den #Desktop und #Fennec für #Android Geräte über @fdroidorg installierbar. Mit den entsprechenden #Addons, im Mastodon Link, für Firefox lässt sich seine #Privatsphare besser schützen.
Why can't built-in browser (like in Google Chrome and Firefox) password managers can't handle exact URLs? There is nothing worse than password manager that tries to fill your password in wrong fields.
Keepass HTTP connector which I've been using also can do it, but browser extensions for that has gone unmaintained. I'm planning to write my own, but it's one of those chore tasks I'd rather not.
Ca me galère chaque jours que je passe sur internet, les bandeaux de cookies où on trouve jamais le bouton "refuser". ou alors ou on peut pas refuser facilement
j’atterris en 2024 et je découvre grâce à @auposte et @LaQuadrature qu'il y à un plugin #firefox pour dire qu'on refuse systématiquement les #cookies. I still don't care about cookies
I am still amused that #reddit actually thinks I would choose to use their piece of shit app to read reddit on my phone instead of #Firefox with adblocker.
I just spent two hours trying to get #Firefox to use #KDE Dolphin as the default file manager.
I went on a journey from .desktop files and mimeinfo.cache, through DBus, to .service files.
I shook with anger when everything seemed configured correctly, but Firefox would just not launch a file manager at all. Click that "show in folder" button and nothing happens.
I have now found the problem.
The problem was: systemd. :angery:
Why. Is. Systemd. Involved. In. Launching. A file manager. 👀
Oh this sounds like #Firefox will become a real browser for me soon. I wish they were ready already for the #ManifestV3 thing. But I guess it's good to know they're on it.
In case you’ve been asleep at the wheel – and if you’re still using Chrome, you most likely are – Manifest V3 will heavily limit what content blockers can do, making them less effective at things like blocking ads.
