Here's an easy way to handle multiple Firefox profiles on Linux - literature.cafe
>On my system, I wanted Firefox profiles to feel like their own browser
instances. Meaning, their own app icons and to not be grouped together. Almost
like how it is on MacOS. >

> >To do this, I had to make multiple .desktop files. Here are the contents of
that file. This targets flatpak, but it should work for traditional Firefox
installs too. > >I called this profile “Personal”. Note that this says --profile
"/home/USERNAME/.var/app/org.mozilla.firefox/config/mozilla/firefox/personal".
In this, “personal” is a symlink to the real profile folder name located in the
same directory. > > >[Desktop Entry] >Version=1.0 >Type=Application

Firefox browser has started shipping Brave's adblock-rust engine - lemy.lol

adblock-rust (Brave’s Rust-based adblock engine, the same one my team works on)
into Firefox. Pretty exciting to see them finally start taking ad & tracker
blocking seriously; I didn’t think I’d see this day. It landed in Firefox 149

Mozilla believes browsers should serve the webmaster, not the user

…evidenced by the stale mothballed bug report (linked). This should be an easy
bug. It should be a no-brainer that triggers a Mozilla dev to say “of course, no
problem… job done”. It’s kind of like when Trump was asked to condemn the KKK.
He had to pause and think. Or when Peter Thiel was asked: > “Hey, what do you
think? Should humanity survive?” And it took him five, six, seven seconds to
say, ‘Yes, I guess so’.” (from Rutger Bregman’s lecture
[https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m002nhld]) A year after the bug was raised,
Mozilla has not made a decision.

Did we lose the option to keep local copies of webpages?

There used to be a feature whereby a bookmarked page could be flagged for
offline use. Then when you visit that page, it instantly renders the page
regardless of whether you are online. Was that removed? There is a «File→Work
Offline» tickbox, but that’s apparently something different because it gives no
way to specify which pages should function offline.
