"Do you want to import your settings from your previous browser?"
"Do you want to make Chrome your default browser?"
"Are you sure?"
FUCK OFF, I'M ONLY USING THIS STUPID PROGRAM BECAUSE MY ASSHOLE UTILITY COMPANY'S WEBSITE DOESN'T WORK WITH FIREFOX
Try user agent switcher. More often than not, websites work just fine with firefox but refuse to load when the browser identifies as not-fascist-google-trash.
And for when switching user agents doesn't work: ungoogled chromium saves the day
flatpak install ungoogled-chromium
or appimage, arch or deb
Yup, I like using a combo of ungoogled chromium and librewolf depending on which works better for certain websites or web apps . To me, Linux is about using the right tool for the job.
I cannot wait for Firefox to finally support WebUSB.
^(I literally cannot wait, it'll never happen...)
YES. I have to keep chrome installed on at least one desktop or laptop if I want to flash firmware on ESP devices.
It sure would be nice to have WebSerial as well. For some reason Mozilla seems to think users can't be trusted with it. They could at least add a compile time option to enable it. If someone knows how to compile a browser, they are probably smart enough not to give random websites access to their devices.
That's why its called "Bloatware"
A windows user downloading a random executable and unchecking all of the boxes that install malware (it is easier than pressing one “Install” button in an app store):
I switched my main to linux about a year ago and install everything through terminal at this point.
I had to download something on a windows system once recently and i was not prepared with how backwards this entire process felt.
I cant understand how i had stuck with such bullshit for so long.
Windows users removing spyware and telemetry while bragging about not having to touch a terminal.
A Linux user running random commands to add a new repo that points to malware (their package manager does not have the program they want by default)
Note: I just did this to install Librewolf, Mullvad, and VS Codium
Is this a Firefox reference?
Shoveling in RAM like coal into a furnace
Missed opportunity to say “installing NVIDIA drivers” instead 🤣
I wrote my own browser using WebKit. Chrome is bloat.
Used to work on WebKit, built my own browser for a while, but damn if they kept breaking qt/WebKit all the damn time.
I mined and smelted my own silicon. Fuckin' amateur hour out here.
i just memorized the entire web so i dont need to browse anymore. browsers are bloat
Did you publish it? What's it called?
I call it Magellan. It's nowhere near ready for production use, though.
If anything, I only use ungoogled chromium if a website refuses to work in Firefox. Had a financial fraud and identity theft scam the other day hosted on a Singaporean form service thing that I had to report using that browser because the send report button wasn't working on FF.
As much as I don't like it, it's probably a good idea to have a backup chromium based browser like ungoogled chromium just in case. Just be sure to not be like me and actually have it in some sort of sandbox rather than running the flatpak on its own.
I was under the impression Flatpaks are sandboxed. (I am not an expert.)
Flatpak is a utility for software deployment and package management for Linux. It provides a sandbox environment in which users can run application software in (partial) isolation from the rest of the system.
I also keep Ungoogled Chromium around as a last resort (AppImage in my case).
Flatpaks are as sandboxed as the sandbox settings you give them, check out if the defaults are satisfactory on Flatseal before running it.
Flatpak is not a sandbox
Where is this from and how can I watch it?

Oh I can see the animated N now
Based on the nonsensical chest computer/armour and other garbled elements of the image I'm going to assume it's AI-generated.
I mean, have you ever looked at Start Trek costumes closely? Shit's wild...
Also it's quite grainy and the handle-thingy in the front (bottom right) is out of focus. Not sure AI can be this imperfect yet, though it's just a matter of time.
Looks more like a late 80s movie to me. I assure you, we did not need AI to generate our nonsense for us.
How would one see anything with that dark of a visor and such low light
I remember this being generated by OpenAI's Sora model.
Lies, linux user would use firefox or something more libre over chrome
Alt-D, "chr", Enter
Who am I kidding, I use Firefox.
Most casual Linux user
Well that is because i would have to install it first because i dont have chrome. Librewolf(firefox fork) for the win! Also i have a shorcut for the browser so its literally faster than most people on other systems. I just press super+w
I thought we hated AI here on Lemmy?
I've been playing too much cyberpunk lately...
Ah, the much rumored red-color computer terminal screen.
