my OP is WRONG.

my statement

it is not available in #Friendica !!!!! wtaf


is now recognised to be incorrect. in fact it is available & works fine in Friendica, so there is actually no problem here to solve.

the error was inadvertently mine... in the particular :firefoxnightly: profile i was using then, i have the mostly-wonderful Firefox Second Sidebar project installed. unfortunately, as i later discovered during my investigation, its own context-menu mods seem to clobber the new native split options, hence it did not show up. if instead using any profile without FF2nd SB, then open link in split view shows up, & works, just fine, in Friendica*.

* NB: none of the new SplitView TabSplit options work at all, if the tab is Pinned, alas. hopefully FF Devs will overcome this limitation soonish ๐Ÿคž ๐Ÿคž ๐Ÿคž

@mrcopilot i really like #kdelinux . have it in a few VMs, & for a few weeks also had it installed to SSD as my third-boot that i used daily. eventually replaced it with #kinoite coz there's some stuff i need to layer [don't work well in a #distrobox or as #flatpak]. also, i need to be able to manually partition. however i fervently hope that by the beta it might be further advanced enough in those areas that i could reinstall it.

i do exasperate myself sometimes with my changing sensibilities wrt my preferred  #font. i keep toggling twixt #RobotoCondensed, and #NimbusSansNarrow . For the past several weeks i'd set it to the latter, but after a few [or several?] days of dissatisfaction with it, i've now toggled back to the former... yet again. based on history it seems inevitable that in another coupla months i'll likely jump back again.

otoh in #Plasma itself, i do seem reasonably settled with #NotoSansExtraCondensed -- this seems generally to survive much longer before i feel the urge to change it, compared to in my browser.

damn dopey dropbear! ๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™€๏ธ

@scottwilson peeps seem to whinge about this a lot, yet my  , my daily default browser for many many years, the alpha & thus notionally unstable fox, has never done this to me. never.

i read so many fedi & subreddit whines & whinges about such & such faults, bugs, misbehaviours et al perpetrated by this apparently miserably bad browser, all the while continuing to have a lovely online time here in my Nightly, & i just shrug & wonder how so many peeps can be so... unlucky ๐Ÿคจ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

oh wotta highly irritating article name!

makeuseof.com/why-2026-is-offiโ€ฆ

given i am passionately following progress of the Project Banana / KDE Linux atomic immutable project, & read everything i come across about it, when i saw this article prominently headlined with "KDE Linux" i jumped on it with glee.

pffffft, it's nothing of the kind, being merely a poorly named article about the Plasma DE itself, not the actual [alpha] distro. baaaah! ๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™€๏ธ

after a coupla months running my main panel / dock at the top of the screen, to get reacquainted with the boring existence of the dirty proles, i have now returned it to the rhs edge of the screen, just as #TheGreatProphetZarquon intended ๐Ÿคช ๐Ÿ™ƒ

yesterday arvo my once-beloved ArchLinux Plasma primary-boot once more summarily froze solid again [even ignoring REISUB again], as has been happening now randomly for many months or maybe a year'ish, after years & years & years of never doing so. as i was planning on still doing my weekly updates on sunday, it meant it still only has Plasma 6.5.5, not 6.6.0. anyway, in my increasing dotage & senility, i have grown disinterested over the past 18 months in needing to still do the occasional forensic troubleshooting & finessing of Olden Days Of Yore... plus, this latest freeze, ipso facto the complete disjuncture to my work in hand til that point, infuriated me completely, sufficient to reboot into my tertiary-boot, Fedora Kinoite, & keep going with what i was doing there... after first running updates on it then rebooting again.

accordingly, credit to the marvellous Fedora Plasma Devs & Maintainers, it now runs Plasma 6.6.0 too. one of the things i was keen to try was the new #Spectacle, with its #OCR text extraction tool. this works ootb, not needing me to fart about manually installing #tesseract as i have been reading needs to happen in other distros. so that's pretty lovely, however, not at all lovely, & indeed triggering a bout of out-loud swearing by me, was this discovery... it uses Merkan English, not proper english, ie, pommie or strayan. oh yuck, i feel so dirty now. merkan is to english as magamoron is to decency, morality, ethics, education, empathy, kindness, compassion...
