What #Firefox screen reader extensions do people use?

Been using the Read Aloud #Browser extension but the permissions are weird.

Is there a fix to not actually copying when you try to copy some times, I genuinely might have to switch it is driving me insane

If the user-agent version string in the log is correct, someone is using Firefox 33 (released 2014) on Windows 8.1 (released 2013).

That's ... ancient.

I just spent two hours trying to get to use 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. 👀

Ich habe die allgemeinen Handlungsempfehlungen für die Browser-Nutzung überarbeitet bzw. erweitert. Sollten nun klarer sein. 👇

@kuketzblog Interessant ist die Brave-Empfehlung. Und dann die Verlinkung zum Wikiartikel in dem die Kontroversen um den Browser aufgelistet sind und doch recht deutlich zeigen, wie die Eigner Ihr Geld verdienen.

@jskeletti Kommt noch in Teil 2 - man kann Brave Rewards und das Crypto-Zeug ja zum Glück deaktivieren.

Oh this sounds like will become a real browser for me soon. I wish they were ready already for the thing. But I guess it's good to know they're on it.

Summary: Tab Grouping, Vertical Tabs, Profile Management

I hope the dev tools will get better soon too, as I need to replace Chrome as a work browser. For private browsing I already use Safari.

@royalrex @Sirs0ri That's one of my problems with Firefox. You need AddOns for so many things that should be standard. But because the market share is so low they're barely maintained. 😅

@kaiserkiwi @royalrex yeeeah, Firefox' add-ons definitely have their ups and downs. I like how so much of the browser can be changed by add-ons (looking at the browsing contexts/multi account containers for example), but I absolutely agree that some of these functions should just be default

Einen Beitrag zum Thema Browser zu veröffentlichen, ist mindestens genauso anstrengend wie zum Thema Messenger. Inhaltlich setzt man sich kaum mit den Aussagen und Erklärungen auseinander, sondern Stammtischparolen ersetzen dann eine ernsthafte Diskussion. Auf diesem Niveau möchte ich wirklich nicht diskutieren.

#mozilla #firefox com o #privacy #badger da #eff é uma solução excelente para reduzir a coleta ostensiva de informação.

De quebra, muitos conteúdos são bloqueados.

Embora não seja destinada a bloquear anúncios, esta extensão acaba bloqueando porque os anúncios funcionam com rastreadores e coletores de dados que são o verdadeiro alvo.

Vale muito a pena. Recomendo. Excelente oportunidade idade para usar um navegador melhor!

Ich muss den Artikel über Browser nun doch aufteilen - es wird eine Artikelserie. Teil 1 ist ab sofort verfügbar.

Empfehlungen für Browser, die die Privatsphäre schützen und ein sicheres Surfen im Internet ermöglichen. 👇

@kuketzblog Vielleicht sollte man erwähnen, dass der Tor Browser nicht für das alltägliche Browsing gemacht wurde. Wenn man darin seine normalen Seiten besucht und seine normalen Account-Daten verwendet, ist der Schutz nicht nur nutzlos, sondern der ganze eigentliche Nutzen hinfällig.

@kuketzblog@social.tchncs.de avatar

@pasci_lei Stimmt. Kommt aber noch in der Serie.

Gibt zur Nutzung auch einen relativen alten Artikel (2015) von mir.

I wrote most of the initial #DoH implementation for #Firefox back in the day. Six years ago I explained some of the internals on my blog: https://daniel.haxx.se/blog/2018/06/03/inside-firefoxs-doh-engine/

akkerman,

@bagder thanks for sharing! Wouldn't lack of the CNAME TTLs suppor introduce the problem? I can imagine setup where there are 2 A records with huge TTLs and single CNAME with shorter TTL that is used for failover, blue/green etc...

bagder,
@bagder@mastodon.social avatar

@akkerman if that was a problem,. I'm sure that's fixed since already a long time ago...

Interesting, there's experimental local alt text generation in Firefox Nightly https://hacks.mozilla.org/2024/05/experimenting-with-local-alt-text-generation-in-firefox-nightly/

In short: DistilGPT-2 model in Transformers.js, trained on updated Flickr30k dataset with supervised learning.

The copy used is also interesting: "Alt text (alternative text) helps when people can't see the image or when it doesn't load."
