With FF being one of the last bastions of actual web-freedom on the internet

How cute people who sincerely believe the fairy tales Mozilla tells…

Brave. I was between it and Vivaldi. Finally settled on Brave.

Thanks, I already knew about the “unfuck” fix made by Black. Too late for me, anyway. I have realized that Mozilla doesn’t care about feedbak or users’ opinion (or the users at all…), so I don’t feel like supporting them anymore.

By the way, the fix is fine. But it is a matter of principle: people shouldn’t have to waste their time unfucking Mozilla’s fuckups and users shouldn’t have to waste their time trying to make a browser usable. So, congrats, Moz Corp, you’ve managed to lose an hardcore user.

Yup, the new FF UI is unbearable. And it was the last straw (among other things) that convinced me that it was time to switch to something else (after 20 years).

• Linux (generally speaking)
• KDE as a whole
• Tusky
• Brave as a browser
• Bitwarden/vaultwarden

Ah, ok. I had misunderstood you at first. Now I get what you meant.

Because it works through Blutooth.

Likely this, yes. I’ll have to dig into it. Thanks!

I have tried to install it on my pi4 as well but it craps out when doing simple stuff… Maybe it’s because I have out it behind nginx as a reverse proxy… I’ll try again when I have time, because it works very well (when it works).

Pdfsam for merging/splitting/etc. For creating PDF from bunch of images you may try Libreoffice Draw, for instance.

Cool ;-)

But why? Why can’t I use a browser that work better for me and that I find more visually pleasant? It is this sort of hivemind thatg ruins communities. Also, for me heresy is not a negative word.

Well, in my personal experience people become emotional and downvote you about trivial comment that don’t break any rule. For instance, I was recently donwoted to hell for saying that I despise Mozilla and prefer to use Brave instead of Firefox. 🤷‍♂️

Just engage, if you disagree with people. Engagement is much more useful than just donwoting and exposes different point of views.

Yeah, but people are still using a browser originally made by an homophobic guy. Shame on them! /s

Brave is managed by Brendan Eich who had to leave Mozilla because he is a homophobe.

Eich was a cofounder of Mozilla. Wasn’t him an homophobe back then? Did someone stopped using FF because Mozilla’s cofounder was an homophobe?

And, frankly speaking, I couldn’t care less about him or his believing. I need a good browser. Brave is a good browser (better than Firefox, for me). The day I find something better, I’ll migrate. Full stop.

That and they have been doing some selfserving things with BAT to the point where I wouldn’t trust them even if BAT became something worthwhile or maybe even especially then.

Again, the whole BAT thing is opt-in and it’s not the point here.

No, I don’t agree. The loss was net, I mean 50M users migrated, the same users that before installed FF over the default browser. Something happened there.

Can we blame Mozilla for losing some users? Yeah, maybe a few. But that’s not really the whole picture.

50M (and counting) was 20% of their user base, not “some users”. There’s nothing wrong in admitting that Mozilla erratic development model has alienated at least some of “us” (by the way, I’ve been a FF user for almost 20 years before leaving). And, personally, I’ll make whatever I can to make more users leave FF. Fuck Mozilla, really. They’re just a cash-grab machine right now.

Crypto on Brave is disabled by default. The FTP support was just an example. The last straw for me was the idiotic UI “refreshement”. I’m not touching that thing. And yes, I know UI on FF can be tuned using CSS, but I’ve no time, nor the will to fix Mozilla’s fuckups. It’s not like there’s a shortage of browsers out there.

Please, feel free to engange to show me that I’m wrong.
