Microsoft begins turning off uBlock Origin and other Manifest V2-based extensions in Edge
-
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.

Chrome* or Chromium based browsers*

It's desktop-only right now and feels like for the foreseeable future. Firefox sync works between Zen and Firefox so you can just run Firefox or one of the Android-specific versions of Firefox that support the generic/vanilla firefox sync.

Does not elicit the image of iron.
Oh, it's libre.

Amarok is the other wolf. I know it looks deceptively similar.
-
Truly; it's shocking how much people are still clinging to permissive licensing in the middle of everything going on.
-
I feel like this sort of thing should be more modular. Maybe on Linux we could in theory have multiple packages that could have different implementations and the browser UI would just use the underlying packages with their specific extras on top.
That would also align well with the Unix philosophy of each component “doing one thing well” and composing small tools to achieve complex tasks.
But discussing this with an LLM, it pointed out that “Browser engines are among the most complex software systems in existence. Breaking them apart would require a deep understanding of their internals and a clear vision for how the pieces should interact” which is fair.

you can buy a normal physical version then pirate the 4K file
-
I was concerned, but it's not Wiki style.
It's just a fancy skin for modal windows. It pops open over 70% of the screen front and center.
Personally. I find tabs more useful, but haven't fully switched over from Firefox yet so I haven't looked into disabling it.

Except in this case, the full cure also exists already and you're trying to push the temporary treatment instead, for no good reason.
