Odd/annoying problem logging on to @mstdn @stux using @librewolf #Librewolf (a #Firefox fork) - it won't accept my username and password. I can't remember if it ever worked, but definitely not this week.

I just tried disabling any relevant extensions and even ResistFingerPrinting in case they were interfering, but nothing helped.

It's fine in Chromium-based browsers - e.g. Edge and Vivaldi, where I had either logged off or had never logged on before.

@realestninja @Skivling one might argue that it has to be done regularly for every app, not just browsers. I don't find it difficult to rule my own browser. I'd do it for librewolf too. I still didn't find it tight enough for my use (when I tried it). Maintenance is necessary for every browser. The fact that unwanted features can be turned off and controlled by myself is more important to me that being dependant on #librewolf developers. Conclusion: I'd still recommend #firefox

I have a dilemma with browsers: [solution found, see comments]
I really like Zen Browser but it has a ram issue on my computer which causes frequent crashes. I switched to LibreWolf and it's having the same issues. I'm on fedora.

Default Firefox does not have these issues, I'm thinking that's because it's a native rpm package and not a flatpak. There doesn't seem to be an rpm version of Zen or LibreWolf. I could switch to default firefox but it's got mozilla telemetry and extra features I don't want to see. I want a private browser, as of recently this probably isn't a great choice.
Is there any other version of firefox that isn't changed much? Or should I just use normal firefox?

»Firefox experimentiert mit neuer Suchmaschine:
Mit der neuen KI-Funktion möchte Mozilla seinen Nutzerinnen und Nutzern ermöglichen, dialogorientierte Antworten auf Fragen zu erhalten.«

Nutzt dies wer von euch schon und wie ist es zum nutzen? Wird dies evt auch von @librewolf übernomen und sind KI Suchmaschinen wirklich besser als bisherige? Ich bin skeptisch hatte dies aber noch nie genutzt.

Mastodon, I have a problem:

I'm using #Librewolf and I can't play any videos from any website. GIFs are ok, but videos… I press play and the image stays frozen.

Has this happened to anyone? Should I enable/disable anything in the browser settings?

Thanks!

PS: #LibrewolfOnMac

I've been using Tridactyl[1] for a long time now for keyboard-driven vi bindings in the browser and yesterday decided to check out the alternatives, thinking maybe they provided some interesting features too.

I looked them all up: Vimium, Vimium C, Vimmatic, SurfingKeys and the result is: I am in awe of how advanced Tridactyl is in comparison to all of them.

Native messaging*, comprehensive ex command mode for commands and settings with live-previewed completions; hint-based visual selection, copying and focus; support for local filesystem text-based configuration; binding sequential browser actions to custom commands; tab group commands; actually launching (neo)vim to edit text areas; ...to name a few!

* do bear in mind the security implications of native messaging, as noted by the developers themselves, but you can have most of the functionality without it

Pessoas que usam Firefox e pessoas que LibreWolf: conseguem acessar algum site da Via Varejo?

Casas Bahia, Ponto Frio, etc.

Não carrega no LibreWolf mas carrega no Chromium. No LibreWolf imediatamente aparece "oops, algo deu errado".

Mostra links para usar Firefox, Chrome ou Safari e caso não resolva, falar com eles no zap. Mas no Chromium carrega normalmente.

Mesmo problema na janela anônima do LibreWolf, sem complementos.

I've stopped using Firefox since the drama a while back... Using #ZenBrowser and #LibreWolf mainly on macOS and on #Android, #Ironfox and #Cromite (as an alt browser). But I'm having quite a lot of website functionality problems when using Ironfox. Can't create accounts, forms not working, can't use #webauthn, pages not loading correctly, checkouts or shopping sites broken, etc. I guess I need to have #Firefox still installed... It's annoying. What's your workaround? #browsers #androidbrowser
