@9to5linux it always surprises me, then makes me giggle, when i read these big "new feature" announcements, given i've already been using & enjoying these things for many months.

#firefoxnightly

Elshara Silverheart 6d ago

So I have a habit of running the latest versions of #ChromeCanary and #FirefoxNightly just because I don't want to fall behind on #SecurityUpdates, to test for #compatibility and other issues and to sstay ahead of any #vulnerabilities in my #browser because I store a lot of #passwords locally in my profiles among other information that I don't #sync online.

Well, lately, every time the browser updates, I keep having to #SignIn to different services like #ChatGPT #Google for #GMail and #Microsoft #Outlook etc.

Nothing changed in my #configuration and I didn't install any #extensions that I know of which would do this.

Ever since #Windows #11 version #29550 came out, this has been a frequent occurrence.

Coincidence?

@djsumdog @dazo I used #Librewolf years ago, only switching to #FirefoxNightly when I got a new computer. If #Librewolf has a nightly version like #Firefox does, I might make the switch. It should be painless enough.

@msdropbear What is it about Firefox Nightly that makes you desire to use it, rather than wait for official releases?

odd. i thought my had lost all my existing tab-notes, which wouldn't have been a catastrophe but would have been disappointing. on a whim i thought to recheck about:config for its current boolean value of my previously manually-enabled browser.tabs.notes.enabled, & thus found it had reverted to false during some very recent update. i flipped it back to my desired true, & voila, my existing tab-notes are once more visible & editable, with new ones "creatable".

Give our experimental features a try! They’re in development and evolving, which could impact how Nightly works. We only receive data about your use of these features if you have technical and interaction data turned on.

Media: JPEG XL
With this feature enabled, Nightly supports the JPEG XL (JXL) format. This is an enhanced image file format that supports lossless transition from traditional JPEG files. See bug 1539075 for more details.

oh wotta highly irritating article name!

makeuseof.com/why-2026-is-offi…

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! 🙄🤦‍♀️
