Microsoft begins turning off uBlock Origin and other Manifest V2-based extensions in Edge
-
Nooo, it is browser on my workplace! How should I work efficiently without uBlock!?!?
-
In floorp you can remove the workspace button from the top.
-
Tell IT and your boss how your productivity tanked since edge disabled uBlock.
-
What's Edge?

O365 never saved anyone any time ever. But it's the one solution dumb-fuck IT managers know of and think they understand so that's what everyone's going with.
-
ðŸ¤to myself then?
-
yea, our comp uses only chrome or Microsoft outlook. even my old state Uni used outlook.
-
Less browsing of news articles?
-
I work in research and development, I have to constantly search the web for stuff

If you think SSO and easy profile migration doesn't save time, there's simply no point in discussing it with you. I don't like MS and their near monopoly position as a company much either. But that doesn't mean every product they make is utter trash for every situation.
There are undoubtedly other solutions but to pretend every one is too dumb to use them shows how little actual experience working in a variety of companies is.
Back in the nineties you might have had Novell NetWare or just plain old LDAP instead of AD, but unlike those competitors AD kept working and offered upgrade trajectories. And it offered decent integration with a decent mailserver (that ofcourse sucked to set up securely for outside access), and that mailserver was fantastic versus the utterly terror that was Domino combined with Notes.
I don't like MS for basically forcing you to go to their cloud now, but pretending it's a bad product through and through on a functional level is just being willingly blind. -
AdBlock Plus has been a sell-out for many years now. Only trust uBlock Origin.

What's the advantage over regular Firefox?
-
They recently started developing it again, after being silent for a long time. They released Amarok 3.0 in April 2024 which migrated it to Qt5 and KDE Frameworks 5.
-
The web platform is huge... It's going to take a long time to reach parity with other browsers.
-
If the disk is going to be unused/thrown out anyway - why not buy a digital copy? Its only job would be corresponding to a usable file you download anyway... I do that with Steam games.
-
It didn't for me on Linux :^)

I don't suggest Librewolf for the plebians though.
It comes with very aggressive anti-fingerprinting and privacy features.
For people in [email protected] that's less of a problem but I wouldn't suggest it to my family members.
-
Click on all the ads and install all the malware. That will teach them.
-
You can think of it as a mobile version of LibreWolf. Strict security settings are default and Mozilla's telemetry is disabled/removed. Also unlike regular Firefox, you can download it from F-Droid (currently you need their repo but it'll be added officially soon, probably).
-
That's the defeatist attitude of a true MCSE scholar.
