What are your favorite Windows apps and programs that add to the Windows shell?
I know it’s a big issue for many given the bad news and crap Google does, but Mozilla is actively taking away features from Gecko whereas Vivaldi, Microsoft, Google and Samsung are improving chromium. I find it hard to make Firefox behave how I want it to when browsers like Vivaldi or even Edge make it easy.
I know a common sentiment I hear (at least on Reddit) is “Why didn’t so and so’s browser use Gecko?” but when a company or person does, a lot of /r/Firefox and /r/Linux users will get upset that they are forking Firefox instead of adding to Firefox/Gecko.
Right, however, a basic tablet UI which Firefox previously had and many browsers have shouldn’t be hard for Mozilla to implement on Android.
Android has scaling so a tablet UI should look normal on most devices.
Which is odd considering it’s been a “first class citizen” on iPadOS by supporting features: lowyat.net/…/the-new-firefox-for-ipad-now-support…
Vivaldi is great though, I hope you’ve enjoyed it thus far!
I wish Mozilla listened to its users like it used to.
Vivaldi has been great on Android, desktop and iOS/iPadOS and even keeps the customization built in that Firefox used to have.
Apologies for the delayed response;
Scanning documents: it uses apples built in ios scanning feature. This removes the need for office lens, readdle scanner pro, etc.
“Amazon this”: will scan the barcode of any product and easily and quickly let me compare the prices of the item.
Combine/Compress/Remove Subject shortcuts: three shortcuts that make an app like photoshop redundant.
Compress PDF: does what it says; reduces dpi with little to no visible diffrence. (I have 126 shortcuts at the moment and these are just a few mentioned)

Workflow/Apple Shortcuts.
I have so many shortcuts that not only save me money as I don’t need to buy an app, but automations that help with battery life and productivity.
