As a long time macOS user, I’ve seen a lot of praise for BBEdit.

However I find it unusable without a way to enable Vim keybindings.

It’s great that BBEdit is still going strong 30 years later. But could the team throw us Vim users a bone?

Even Panic’s Nova has Vim bindings built in.

I believe security keys are the offline version of passkeys you're looking for.

I am afraid that websites will somehow disable support security keys and only support passkey implementations from big tech (similar to how websites only offer signin with google, fb , etc).

Can someone clarify if WebAuthn protocol allows for this filtering against hardware authenticators?

Safari doesn’t offer a full implementation of vertical tabs. It’s still not possible to hide the horizontal tab bar. I’ve also found Safari’s vertical tabs to lag behind the state of the horizontal tabs.

I like Orion and Arc. Both browsers have good vertical tabs implementations. I like some their other features, but I would prefer to use Safari full time.

Vinegar has no issues with livestreams. I haven't tested Yattee, but it is being actively developed. Please report any bugs on the github page https://github.com/yattee/yattee

Pick a server instance from https://docs.invidious.io/instances/ or https://github.com/TeamPiped/Piped/wiki/Instances. Navigate to Settings > Locations > Custom Locations > Add Location. Paste in the server url and you're done.

You can get sponsor and ad free YouTube through the App Store.

I prefer to avoid sideloading modified versions of the official iOS apps. That feels unsafe to run untrusted code, and I personally don’t want to review the code myself or build from source if that’s even possible.

There is no need to fuss with all of that, when there are plenty of good options on the AppStore.

Yatte [1] is a third party client built from scratch in swift ui. It can connect either Piped or Invidous servers. It’s available on all Apple platforms included tvOS. It runs way better than the official YouTube app.

Safari Extensions - I prefer watching YouTube in the browser. These extensions are universal AppStore purchases and work just as well on mobile as they do on desktop Safari.

Vinegar [2] is a Safari extension that blocks YouTube ads and replaces the player with the default WebKit html player. It makes using YouTube in the browser so much more tolerable. It’s helpful to have when you want to watch videos in 4K - something most Invidious or Piped servers struggle with.

SponsorBlock [3] also has an official Safari extension available.

Safari on iOS has supported content blockers since iOS 9.

Last year Safari on iOS gained web extension support. There are orders of magnitude more Safari extensions on the App Store than Firefox on Android.

I use Dark Reader, AdGuard, Vinegar, and Sponsorblock.

testing...

Me too. I wouldn't even want any extra features behind this paywall. The only perk I would like is some sort of weighted/priority feedback.

I do feel like Firefox needs to do its best to hold on to the existing power users, in addition to growing its casual user base. I feel like Firefox really disregards feedback from its biggest fans (i.e. the scheduled removal of compact view), and is overly focused on converting chrome users.

Does DDG hire interns?

Correct. I wish they stuck it out with OSM, that project needs more support.
