Microsoft begins turning off uBlock Origin and other Manifest V2-based extensions in Edge
-
That's not what that Firefox thing was about at all.

Sounds like a job for JoMiran! Rooting for you!
-
My company has blocked all other web browsers, so lots of us sadly.
-
Why would anyone use anything but Brave anyway? Brave will still support manifest v2 shit.
-
Was super easy but my setup is pretty minimal.
Export bookmarks from Firefox, install favourite addons in the Floorp extension menu and lastly import bookmarks.
Most of the settings will be familiar and some features will be new like the workspaces and sidebar.
Hope your transfer goes smoothly!

Lol Microsoft really using their browser market share effectively
-
Just in case you needed another reason not to use Edge.
-
it's very brave to say something like that here
-
Brave will support it until it becomes inconvenient to do so as the Chromium base keeps moving everywhere onwards.
Regardless, Brave have their own skeletons in the closet... crypto, installing other Brave applications during browser install without consent, injecting their affiliate links when nobody asked, a CEO who donated money to homophobic causes more than once.

For anybody unaware, their new privacy notice essentially states that if you opt in to using a third party LLM within Firefox, the LLM provider will get the info that you give to the LLM.
-
Genuine question - isn’t their terms basically “if you use these third party services you’re subject to their terms, and also were going to collect some data to see if people actually use this feature or if it’s a waste of time?”
-
And now Firefox is requiring you to hand over your data to them.
If you're talking about the recent news, that's not what the updated privacy notice says.
Mozilla will be adding opt in LLM functionality to Firefox. It can use third party LLM providers. The privacy has been updated to say "btw, any info you give to this LLM will be processed by the LLM by a third party." I.e. the LLM provider has the data once you send it to them.

You don't have to replace the html web. If a new system was sufficiently fun to create with, people might use it for all kinds of cool new projects. Kind of like Flash used to be. You'd go there for a specific thing you heard about.
A new web free of cruft might turn out to be cheaper to develop for, and that might appeal to the corporate types. Maybe useful for intranet type apps where the browser is specified anyway and you have a captive audience.

Amarok? That was my favorite media player way back when

Works on android?
-
Zen's glance feature allows you to view links without actually opening them.
I do not like the wording of this because you are opening it

Weirdly enough, I like buying movies to encourage people to keep making the kinds of movies I enjoy watching. I have some physical media, but often times you can't find 4k versions of movies on physical media.
