Since you are trying to expand your horizons here’s a bunch of weird stuff I like:
Firefox has ads by pocket on your homescreen and sponsored search results to name the two that come to my mind.
Forgot about the home screen sponsored stuff since it’s so easy to disable it, as for sponsored search results, I’ve only been able to find stuff about sponsored search suggestions, minor detail. Mozilla suggest
Mozilla has made donations to the Mack group who have expressed hatred towards people who are white.
I’ve not been able to find much info on this, the only thing I found was a member’s only blog post by luduke (who I don’t trus), so I can’t say much about this.
Both have ads baked in. Brave turns them off by default but tries to get you to turn them on and gives you fractions of a cent in crypto if you do. Mozilla has them on by default.
What ads does Firefox have?
Both have bundled things in their browser. Brave it was their VPN and affiliate link scandal. Mozilla was plugins like the Mr Robot plugin and changing people’s search engines to Bing without their consent when negotiating with Google.
The Mr. Robot plugin stopped being auto-installed a day after people complained about it back in 2017 (7 years ago), and I don’t think this ever happened again, while Brave still does its thing to this day (to my knowledge), I haven’t been able to find any info on that second point.
Both have made fringe political donations
Which fringe political donations has Mozilla made?
What about the whores you’re hoarding?
Parrots don’t have human intelligence tho.
Kablam!
That’s a cartoon. Kablam!
Just Firefox, I like the way it looks, and it’s open source.
I still have to wait a long time for the video to load in the Mpv cache
In my experience the video loads in a few seconds compared to the minutes it’d take for it to download, but I get your second point.
So my new workflow is to use Piped to find a video, then copy the end of the link and type “yt-dlp <C-S-v>” in a terminal, wait for the video(s) to download, and open in mpv.
Why not just pass the YouTube link to mpv so you don’t have to wait for the video to download?
I’ve been using it for years and never encountered any issues (besides the fact that they’ve removed comments from the download pages).
Oh, I thought it was an epic judge saying that, but it’s just Epic’s judge.
I’ve had this same situation happen to me before and my solution was to search -x instead of just x.
Ok, thank you for the help!
Thank you for the detailed response!
I’m gonna give it a try in my current session and if it works I’ll make it permanent.
One more thing I’d like to ask though is what would be an appropriate size for zram? Considering it grows dynamically 50% would probably be a good amount right?
Windows 8.1 (~10 years) -> Xubuntu (a few months) -> Arch linux (present).
Can’t wait for nothing to change 'cause 90% of chrome users don’t use add-ons.
My guess is that sway checks sets the opacity when the window open, so when the first rule matches (app_id=.*) it skips all others, so maybe try putting the other 2 rules above the first one?
Sorry if my comment is incomprehensible, I’ve just woken up.
I don’t know about beefbot, but this blog convinced me to not use kagi:
