lnxw48a1: #Google #Chrome and all other browsers based on #Chromium will get some changes to their extensions API which will reduce the ability of ad-blocking extensions. #Mozilla #Firefox is rejecting that part of the change, so Firefox and other browsers based on their code will retain superior ad-blocking capabilities.

lnxw48a1: Case in point, in any of the #Chromium based browsers, you can turn #JavaScript totally on or totally off. There is no option to turn it off for 3rd party domains. So many sites are #JavaScrippled these days that turning JS all the way off (without a one-click way to turn it on for one site) is too frustrating for anyone to do. I did see in #Edge today that I can add sites individually to either a separate Yes to JS or No to JS list. I don't recall seeing it until recently. But that's cumbersome.

lnxw48a1: A lot of us are concerned about #Firefox, about #Thunderbird, and about #Mozilla itself. The trouble is, most of the seeds of Moz's current affliction were planted early on, when the #Google search deal was first signed. They received an unimaginable amount of money, and being good people, they decided to pour it into becoming the Web's advocate and (later on) the Web's privacy advocate. They built a large organization, with some very high salaries at the top, based on the revenue they received from a single customer. And then that customer launched its own browser, #Chrome, in part because Firefox was going slower than Google desired because so many resources were going into other projects and because Google's plans were not always aligned with what Mozilla believed was best for the Web. It was always an unsustainable situation, and when things changed due to cooperation being replaced with coopetition, they started a panicked grasping for other revenue sources. Now, they've cut actual developers, which makes it even more difficult to keep up with Chrome / #Chromium (and the many browsers derived from it). And because they need to find other revenue sources, they keep looking for ad deals ... which runs crosswise with its core users, who want to block ads. So, yeah, I don't see a way out that leaves them as anything other than a niche product produced by a small team of mostly volunteers. I do think _personalization_ as a differentiator is going to flop, if they're thinking about color schemes and superhero logos. A big chunk of what people did with XUL (the former technology, and what made it so customizable) was produce ad blockers, script blockers, embedded-media blockers, pop-up blockers, cookie and tracking blockers, proxy tools, and web development tools (webdev toolbars, xml toolbars, json tools, css and xsl tools, sqlite tools). I just don't think that the ability to make your browser look like the Spiderman t-shirt you bought last week is going to win over a lot of people who are using Chrome/Chomium/Edge/Opera/Vivaldi/Brave/Iron. Now, maybe if they make it the most secure and private browser right out of the box, with ad blocking, script blocking, and so on, plus make it faster than the Chromium family while consuming less RAM and crashing less often, then adding the ability to dress the browser up as Dora the Explorer will total enough advantages to make a difference.

clacke: The saga of trying to build the monster that is Chromium for Android, reproducibly, all from source: gitlab.com/fdroid/rfp/-/issues… (Bromite, Chromium degoogled) gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-… (Unobtainium, Chromium all open source, all from source) guix manages to build ungoogled-chromium for GNU and that's hard enough, but for Android it's even trickier. Part of the problem is as usual to disentangle the Play Services dependencies. For now it is, indeed, unobtainable. To even almost-succeed you need over 4 GiB virtual memory for the linking, over 10 GiB disk space for the sources alone and over 30 GiB disk space for the build artifacts. If you are a bit starved for CPU or I/O you're looking at s 24+ hour build. #Bromite #Unobtainium #UnobtainiumBrowser #Android #Chromium #FDroid

emergencyexit: OK, did OMGUbuntu intentionally left out Brave as a Chromium based browser on Linux? Brave is FLOSS, the others (except Chromium, which is the base for these browsers) are proprietary.

I think so; choice is good for users. Not everyone is a dyed-in-the-wool FOSS fan fan sworn off anything with a vague whiff of proprietary licensing." OMGUbuntu is shilling for proprietary junk?

If that's right, the only way to influence web and de facto standards is to have a seat at the chromium table. #installfirefox https://blogs.windows.com/windowsexperience/2018/12/06/microsoft-edge-making-the-web-better-through-more-open-source-collaboration/
strypey: @hexmasteen @HerraBRE @alexl @Blort Most #Chromium based software can't even be confirmed as #FreeCode software to the standard required for being listed in the #FreeSoftwareDirectory. AFAIK #Iridium is the only project accepted into the #FSD that uses code from Chromium: https://directory.fsf.org/wiki/Iridium_Browser

lnxw48a1: @zacts #Chromium is ultra bloaty. With several tabs open, it approaches 3GiB of RAM. #Firefox and #Palemoon, each with double the number of tabs, together total about 1.5GiB.

strypey: @gme 1) none of the frameworks you mention result in apps that contain a complete copy of a browser (#Chromium, see that link). 2) Chromium has never been confirmed not to contain proprietary dependencies, which may also be bundled with #Electron apps, see https://libreplanet.org/wiki/List_of_software_that_does_not_respect_the_Free_System_Distribution_Guidelines#chromium-browser

strypey: @cathal @Tryphon even #Chromium can be guaranteed to be 100% free code. That's why neither it nor anyone derived from it (#Electron apps, #Discourse etc) are listed in the #FreeSoftwareDirectory https://libreplanet.org/wiki/List_of_software_that_does_not_respect_the_Free_System_Distribution_Guidelines#chromium-browser

bobjonkman: Doesn't need an extension to search with a keyword (or a keyletter). In the settings for #Chromium or #Chrome open "Manage search engines", DuckDuckGo should already be in there, then change the keyword from "duckduckgo.com" to "!". Now you can search ddg by typing "! thing-to-search-for" (yes, you do need a space). For !Firefox and its derivates create a new bookmark with the location "https://duckduckgo.com/html?q=%s" and the keyword "!", and again you can search by typing "! stuff"

bjoern: You want to break with old habits? Getting used to use a new search engine, online translator, etc. can be really hard. I just learned about #LeechBlock, a nice #Firefox and #Chromium extension which allows you to block certain URLs or forward them. You can set up rules like "forward google.com to startpage.com" or "forward translate.google.com to deepl.com". Now every time your bad habit kicks in, your browser will remind you what you really want to do. 😀 http://www.proginosko.com/leechblock/
