With #GoogleChrome's "incognito" mode, *you* can't track what websites you've visited, but #Google (and therefore a lot of other websites, advertisers and whatnot) can and do :blobfoxdetective:

Using #LibreWolf with history turned on, I have it the other way round: I can track *my own* history, but other people can't! :librewolf:

Revolutionary, right?

@markusr Der Vorteil meiner #Browser-Fenstermethode ist, dass man sich kein Multi-Level-Issue mit verschiedenen Submethoden aufbaut sondern eine einzige Methode für alles verwendet.

Also keine andere Methode für Browserfensterauswahl und Tabauswahl. Ist ein anderer prinzipieller Zugang, auf den man sich einlassen muss, sofern es passt.

Die add-ons "Window titler" + "tab mover" sind hier IMO notwendig.

Mein Hirn sucht nicht "das Browserfenster mit X" sondern ich suche nach "X", egal, was es sein mag: ein Browserfenster oder eine normale Desktop-Anwendung.

OK then, trying LibreWolf (privacy based fork of Firefox).

First criteria: does it work?

- Got my important extensions installed and tested. Set up my pinned tabs. Logged into my important accounts. So far, so good.

I'll have to give it a few days to see if there are any pain points. I also need to learn more about exactly what it's doing for me beyond auto-installing uBlock Origin (I'm sure a lot more).

Currently building #LibreWolf on #Void #Linux, not only because I can, but because I don't care for Flatpak or AppImage and the only alternative for Void is to build it from source.

As of this screenshot I'm about nine minutes into what will probably be a 15-20 minute build on my Geekom A7. This is the hardest I've pushed this tiny workstation so far, averaging 13GB in use and all eight cores (16 threads) pegged to 100%.

I love open source!

So, I froze my #Firefox updates, some 8-9 months ago, back at the 128 release, just before the AI enshittification.

Now, I'm getting warnings that it'll stop working soon if I don't update.

I'm already 99% switched to #LibreWolf , and if my FF quits working, I'll just be uninstalling it.

It will be the first time I have not had Firefox on my machine(s) since they released version 0.5 back in 2002.

Replaced #Firefox with #LibreWolf wooo!
Thing is, I had several other privacy focused add-ons/extensions like #PrivacyBadger #PrivacyPossum, but when I checked the recommended extensions for LibreWolf, it says to only use uBlock origin and a password manager, it doesn't mention these other add-ons. So, if my suspicion is correct, they are not necessary because LibreWolf already does the same things as these extensions out of the box?
Would be great to have a more explicit explanation from @librewolf docs :heart_cyber:

Can anyone using #firefox in #Ubuntu confirm, if you need to click "I agree" to use firefox ? Does it show ToS before you start using firefox ?

Clicking or not clicking "I agree" makes a crucial difference in mozilla getting your permission to use your data. Unlike proprietary software or services, you can get #firefox from a different source without agreeing to this shit. Just the name may be different or they might have made it better for you.

Estou tentado usar o #LibreWolf. Estava com um problema com um site do trabalho. Resolvi e quero contar como.

O site carregava errado, de um jeito que não dava para usar. Depois de tentar mexer em cada botão e alavanca das configurações do LibreWolf, resolvi abrir o terminal de debug, com F12. Vi que havia 12 erros. Logo o primeiro deles era jquery que não carregava pois o site onde estava hospedada não era confiável. Como eu confio no site (é dos caras que gerem o site profissional que eu tentava usar), abri esse site do jquery diretamente e cliquei "sim, aceito os riscos". Depois disso o site que eu precisava abrir passou a funcionar. Deu para entender ou ficou muito confuso? Enfim, talvez ajude alguém.

Quick-and-easy installation instructions for #LibreWolf on #Debian, just #FYI:

doas apt update && doas apt install extrepo -y && doas extrepo enable librewolf && doas apt update && doas apt install librewolf -y

Okay, ok, I guess we're not ALL doas enjoyers. XD

For my sudo friends:

sudo apt update && sudo apt install extrepo -y && sudo extrepo enable librewolf && sudo apt update && sudo apt install librewolf -y
