Woohoo, the next version of Epiphany will no longer flashbang you when creating a new tab at nighttime in dark mode! https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/epiphany/-/merge_requests/2027

Fix dark style on blank new tab page (!2027) · Merge requests · GNOME / Epiphany · GitLab

Rui Nibau noticed that we are adding the style attribute in the wrong place, so it doesn't work at all. Fixes

It is a chillingly dangerous technique indeed. Here is a video of Epiphany restoring tabs on startup: https://youtube.com/watch?v=hmoLf1Jh6SQ

Okay, so elementary OS 8.1 is installed on my laptop and I'm gonna try and see if I can use the web browser the web browser that comes with elementary, which is Epiphany, aka GNOME Web, as my main. I have a feeling it's gonna be rather complicated but I want to give it a real shot.

If @elementary or anyone else has any piece of advice to give, I'd love to hear it.

Donc oui aujourd'hui j'utilise des forks de #Firefox ( @librewolf et @zenbrowser ) je regarde du côté des projets qui se sont éloignés de Mozilla il y a un moment (@Waterfox et @palemoon )

J'utilise de + en + #Epiphany #GnomeWeb (webkit).

Et oui, c'est la PREMIÈRE FOIS EN 25 ANS de « vie informatique » que je lorgne vers une application privatrice ( @Vivaldi )

#librewolf #zenbrowser #waterfox #palemoon #vivaldi

If you're understandably unhappy with Firefox' recent decision to add AI slop, here are a few good alternatives:

Librewolf - Firefox fork focused on privacy and security

Falkon - KDE's own browser, built on QtWebEngine, lightweight and secure, though lacking in the extensions department

GNOME Web - built on WebKit, it's quite nice, and with a little configuring, you can use Firefox extensions on it like adblockers and such

#WebBrowsers #Librewolf #Falkon #GNOMEWeb #Mozilla #Firefox

Since #Firefox has decided to shoehorn #AI into their web browser (because that belongs outside of an extension 🙄), I've set up a user.js disabling literally all the ML bullshit for now.

Now I have to decide on which browser to switch to. I'm torn between #LibreWolf and #Waterfox, since both of those seem pretty committed to not doing AI.

And before anyone suggests it, I have a couple Webkit based browsers (#Falkon and #GnomeWeb) to play with, but neither of them is really ready for daily driving.

Also, I have a Blink browser already in #Vivaldi. I don't like that it's not fully open source, but the ad block and such works, it's got no AI, and let's face it, it's pretty.

🚨 Firefox te da la espalda 🤬. Mozilla dejará de dar soporte a Linux de 32 bits con la versión 145 🤯.

@ati1 @linmob Depends what the user wants from a personal device, how they use it and what their priorities are. If someone's priorities are a modern camera, running proprietary Android apps and their money is held hostage by banks requiring #Duopoly apps, they should check back later, perhaps when the Librem 5 "Fir" model is released.

On the other hand, if #FreeSoftware, #privacy, #modularity, #repairability, #ecofriendliness, #decentralisation, #digitalindependence, etc. are valued above other things, the Librem 5 and the higher-spec model, the #LibertyPhone, can absolutely work in 2025 and beyond.

I am daily driving a #Librem5 with #postmarketOS and everything important to me works: VoLTE calls and SMS (although I avoid them due to #SaltTyphoon), 4G data, Wi-Fi, camera with OK quality photos (see: #ShotOnLibrem5), GPS with #PureMaps, web browsing with #FirefoxESR, web apps (including banking) using #GNOMEWeb and #BraveBrowser, email using #Geary and #DeltaChat, audio calls on #SignalMessenger, #Matrix ( #ElementMessenger), #XMPP ( #DinoIM), #JitsiMeet, etc.

There are occasional bugs and quirks, and the device itself has limitations but nothing that I can't work around.

Not sure if I missed anything. Let me know if you have a specific use case that you absolutely require and I'll see if I can test...

I don't know what kind of wildly inefficient code #GitLab must have put in their bug reporting GUI, but it seems to be a great performance stress-test benchmark for @WebKitGTK, as Epiphany lags a *lot* when trying to type there

@itspomf I've tried #gnomeweb a few times but, it's just way too minimal for me to use. @gnome needs to app features in the coming versions.

For now, use #firefox with "Adaptive Tab Bar Colour" and "mtab" plugins to make it homely.
