I mean, in a tab it's included the URL bar, but the bookmarks toolbar has nothing to do with the page we're at. It should be above Tabs!
Excellent work being done here (since the dawn of internet). The first time i visited it (~199/99) it was still rocking :)
But, then again, maybe Matt just quit...
it must be awful to see so much corruption and monopoly in the market.
according to archive.org.... it's been down since March, 31... so is https://private.sh/
Good point!!!
Well said!!!
I was really amazed with this post I found here the other day:
https://lunduke.locals.com/post/4387539/firefox-money-invest...
maybe they should think better where they put their money!!!
If servo ever gets into a decent independent browser I will let go of Firefox the second its released!!!
I do not support a donation-based tech company spending money in other places not related to tech!
That's "disa-point-ing"!!!
You're going to get sooo beaten up here!!! Probably even banned!!!
You can't post things like this!!! You can't defend the church!!! Didn't you know that?!?! [sarcastic smile]
Incoming in 3, 2, 1...
This just made my mind blow up...
If it's true, then it's REALLY BAD!!!
- they fired lots of good devs to cut on expenses but then keep paying more and more to top execs (and we're not getting any anomalous good results that justify it iyam)...
- from what i understood, they also "kind of" kicked Brendan Eich (yeah, Brave's CEO, the guy that invented JS, etc...) out over some "personal" things that had nothing to do with Mozilla (but then again... you should go read about this and take your own conclusions)
- Firefox, also start following the herd and that led to it cutting lots of features people loved (e.g.: Firefox had tab grouping addons - and then a native feature - way before we had Chrome browser... now everyone complains firefox is the only browser that does not support tab groups... kind of ironic!)
- some more .......
All in all it's a love-hate relation! We love and need Firefox because it's the only good thing left around, but people are very pissed up with "Mozilla's attitudes and decisions"
then again... this is just what i understand from the "news"!!! You should really go out and see what others think about it!!!
Lets all use chromium-based browsers!
What could possibly go wrong?
XD
Check this other submission:
Disney, for example, decided to forbid the reprint of Eisner Award winning
"Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck"'s last chapter...
because it "do not align with their values"
(source: https://www.cbr.com/disney-bans-don-rosa-uncle-scrooge-mcduc... )
how stupid is that?!
However I have had no success in getting it to work...
Try, for example:
where is bill watterson?
in both and compare for yourself!
Fedora, openSUSE or KDE neon?
Really....... ;)
How Firefox’s Total Cookie Protection and container extensions work together
https://addons.mozilla.org/blog/how-firefoxs-total-cookie-pr...
- they ditch their own extension system (which was far more powerful) to go hunt for leprechauns with google "unified extensions system" (read Google-Controled extensions system)
- when they stopped servo development (yeah... there is lack of money, but not to pay the big ones on the top, right)
- They give the boot to Brendan Eich (yeah... the Brave browser guy)
- They spend coding time with useless features (oh i can mention a few... but lets start with those colorful themes that no one cares about..........)
- i can go on and on... and on.......
but... all in all, i'm HEAVY a Firefox user!!! (because there is nothing else to choose from)
Most people won't ever admit Linux won. No matter what!!!
A counter post with some valid points:
It remembered me of 1990's "Where Pigeons Go to Die" ( https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0100923/ )
But, while a bit amateur-ish, it's a nice initiative.
I honestly didn't liked UK leaving EU. I believe EU - which I'm part of - got weakened by Brexit.
However, the worst part, I believe, was left for Britons... I don't think they really saw it coming!!!
They shoot themselves in the foot on that decision. (personal opinion, naturally)
But, from my POV, UK is just too desirable and powerful.
(I don't belong to UK, by the way)
That leaves me with Firefox (or its less known forks: waterfox, librefox, palemoon).
He is everything!!!
The beginning and the end... The Alpha and the Omega...
