Audio Codecs for Firefox in Bazzite/Fedora - Lemmy.World
I have been able to see online that the problem I am having is a known one where
the Firefox flatpak needs version 23.06 ffmpeg-full as a dependency. I cannot
for the life of me figure out how to get this working and as a result Firefox
audio stutters significantly on every website no matter what settings I change
or what extensions I turn on and off. I at first assumed this was a problem with
my extensions and went through a pretty hefty troubleshooting session that got
me pretty much nowhere. I have attempted to install the proper codecs via the
terminal and the system says those codecs are already installed. I’m at a loss
here. If anyone knows an answer or at least an avenue to help me get this
solved, I’m all ears. Device: ROG Ally X OS: Bazzite/Fedora updated fully to the
most recent update released.

“The uBlock Origin Lite add-on was also accused of collecting user data and
running afoul of privacy concerns, which is one of the big reasons why people
switch over to the Firefox browser in the first place. Hill [the developer]
responded: “It takes only a few seconds for anyone who has even basic
understanding of JavaScript to see the raised issues make no sense.””

A Novel Approach to Yotube Ads - Lemmy.World
Instead of blocking them, this extension speeds them up to x16. Experiencing a
30 second ad in 2 seconds is pretty funny. And it works on Edge and Chrome.
