I’ve always been a Firefox fan, and I used it exclusively for quite some time. However, I had to switch back to Brave after they blocked clipboard managers from seeing what you copy in private windows, and there was no way to turn it off. I know about profiles and containers, but this is something I need for my workflow. Now that Brave has proper containers, I’m running out of reasons to miss Firefox other than my ideals.


I wish they had an always up to date guide on what each about:config option does.


Or make them more discoverable. I spent so much time looking for a UI scaling setting, and in the end it turned out its name does not contain any obvious word like scale or size, instead it is called devPixelsPerPx. It isn't even consistent about Pixels vs Px.

px is the CSS unit, device pixels aren't.


Good to know it has some logic to it, thanks for the clarification


You can please some of the people, some of the time.


Adobe keeps me on macOS, otherwise I’d love to use something like Ubuntu as a daily driver.


Looking up how much things used to cost? I too like being depressed.


I have, but very rarely. I could count on one hand how often I’ve needed to dig back more than half a decade ago.

Back when I used Gmail I just kept everything personal and work related but when I moved away and started paying for email storage I took a different approach. It didn’t make sense for me to pay considerably more storage for something I almost never use.

I ended up backing up all of my emails outside of the last 5 years and stored them on an offline drive where I can reference them as eml files if I ever need it.

Going forward once a year I’ll export and purge the oldest year in my account.


Yes and they’re very transparent about it.

The way I initially read this headline my brain thought that this privacy extension was going to stop spying on users. Confused for a moment there.


They say they'll support MV2 "as long as possible".


Damn, he pulled a “Secure Custom Fields” on Automattic.


What's this in reference to? Sounds mildly interesting


They forked the open source project. ACF was forked as SCF.
