on a very daily basis : #firefox, #signal, #joplin,#vlc #flycut (clipboard manager, #ice (menu bar manager), #zotero, and as web apps/services : #wikipedia, #hedgedoc/#codimd, #framadate. But theyโ€™re many more I used several times a weekโ€ฆ


Firefox can be made minimal, you know.

I'd prefer seeing @mozilla enhancing their browser performance and stop adding AI features. I more and more use Chromium because #Firefox is slow on several web pages. But hell yeah, I'm sure, people will come back to Firefox because of chat bots. Who cares about bad performance? Haha ๐Ÿ™„

Don't get me wrong. I'm not against AI featurs in generell, as long I'm not forced to using them. But usability should be the higher priority. Firefox is still a browser, not an AI assistant...


Firefox is getting a new AI-powered feature! ๐Ÿค–

a similar thing happens to #YunoHost instances too. Google looks at all the similar-looking login screens and thinks "landing page looks like other landing page, so it must be a phishing scam"

The worst part is that #Firefox uses this same "safe browsing" list as well

I wouldn't be surprised if it starts happening to instances of popular #Fediverse software too, although those have the advantage that their landing pages tend to be quite a bit more customised

Wow that is a hard one to answer as I don't use any #Proprietary tools
Back before I moved to Linux & was still on #Windows7 2019, I went out of my way to not use proprietary tools & only used open source tools & tools ported to #Windows from #Linux.
A cheap answer from me would be: #Okular & #Firefox replaced #Adobe Reader for PDFs
The thing about proprietary #Software is you have to pay for it & I was never into that๐Ÿดโ€โ˜ ๏ธ ๐Ÿฆœ๏ธ
On #Android I've been replacing proprietary Apps with open source


Your Firefox installation needs a glowup. ๐Ÿช„โœจ

โ€œIs Firefox on the right path? Maybe.โ€

Really don't think so! #Mozilla rather cares about the #AITrend more than its users.

Ah, and also, killing good #software for the sake of this #trend. And when you think that it's little probable for it to succeed in it, when there are much bigger players on the table! ๐Ÿ™

Their pay is so low, it was probably easy for FAANG to find rubes to fill their executive positions and slowly dismantle the company from the inside.

I might be hawking a conspiracy theory, but their behavior all but leads any critical thinker to the same conclusion..

While I love #Firefox (and #Thunderbird) and #Mozilla in general, their Executives are traitorous bastards that are bought and paid for by those who hate freedom and free software.


Firefox's new experimental AI feature looks like it could work. ๐Ÿค–

In Firefox, you can set a custom secure DNS. For this, first go into the Firefox settings and select the Privacy & Security tab. Then scroll down to the โ€œDNS over HTTPSโ€ section and choose from one of the protection levels.

Select โ€œIncreased Protectionโ€ and then โ€œCustomโ€ for adding a custom DNS provider.

+1 reason why you must stop using Chrome and, if possible, Chromium browsers

(Upd: link to a post in Fediverse with tech details fedi.simonwillison.net/@simon/โ€ฆ)

(Upd 2: MS Edge seems to have this issue; #Vivaldi also has it but it can be disabled; Ungoogled Chromium doesn't have it at all)

It turns out Google Chrome ships a default, hidden extension that allows code on `*.google.com` access to private APIs, including your current CPU usage

You can test it out by pasting the following into your Chrome DevTools console on any Google page:

chrome.runtime.sendMessage(
"nkeimhogjdpnpccoofpliimaahmaaome",
{ method: "cpu.getInfo" },
(response) => {
console.log(JSON.stringify(response, null, 2));
},
);

I want Firefox to succeed more than ever and I support Mozilla finding better revenue sources than search engine default sales, but I do not support a $7M salary for its CEO.

I canceled my recurring donation to Mozilla because I need that money more than Mozillaโ€™s CEO needs that money.

If there is a direct funding option of developers working on Firefox, I will happily reallocate that money. Send me links.

Wow. Thank you for sharing this on-device #translation #Firefox capability.

I see why you want this to be an option in #thunderbird! Personally I hope #SelfHosted translation comes to #openSource #messaging and #documentSharing platforms like #nextcloud too.

Side-by-side raw and translated words would be a neat option too.
