Datensammelei in Firefox - Rausgerufen
Dieser Blog ist meine kleine Ecke im Netz. Hier schreibe ich über das was mir gerade in den Sinn kommt, bzw. worauf ich gerade Lust habe.

Does anybody know, by any rare chance, what #Firefox settings might cause CORS errors? Since last week I'm unable to access, for example, a local #Jellyfin instance with Firefox due to this problem, as it causes a lot of CORS errors (same origin policy).
I have already tried changing &quo…

Instead of an "AI kill switch" like they promised, #Mozilla will provide "AI controls" buried deep in settings a #Firefox update which isn't out yet, until then the AI features which are already released and on by default can only be disabled by digging through about:co…

After introducing Debian packages for Firefox Nightly, we're now excited to extend that to RPM-based distributions. Just like with the Debian packages, switching to Mozilla’s RPM repository allows Firefox to ...

#Firefox führt ab Version 148 eine neue Einstellung ein, mit der Nutzer alle aktuellen und zukünftigen generativen #AI-Funktionen im Browser blockieren können.
Alternativ lassen sich einzelne Features wie #Übersetzungen

Firefox will soon let you block all of its generative AI features | TechCrunch
Starting with Firefox 148 arriving later this month, users will find a new AI controls section within the desktop browser settings.

Martin Stransky highlights some recent major achievements for #Firefox on Linux: ""HDR video playback support, reworked rendering for fractionally scaled displays, and asynchronous rendering implementation. All this progress was enabled by advances in the Wayland compositor ecosystem, with new features implemented by Mutter and KWin.

And there are even more challenge…

Bin jetzt versuchsweise auf den #Vivaldi Browser umgestiegen und bin bisher sehr zufrieden. Läuft runder als der #Firefox auf meiner alten Laptophardware mit #Lubuntu

*click* Until Firefox devs screw something up that's absolutely no AI functionality for me, thanks.
Oh, it's in its own new section of the settings, "AI Controls".

Anyone who uses Firefox nowadays does so as an act of rebellion against the Evil Corp, meaning they usually know what they're doing and why. However, Firefox is heading in a different direction and isn't listening to its user community.
Want to know what they want for their browser? Ask them. You can do this through market research or a damn online survey. It's not that hard.

Mozilla's New CEO Bets #Firefox's Future on #AI - Slashdot

Why is #Zoom refusing to screenshare a #Firefox window, but will share any other app's windows? It's been happening for a while now. On #Linux if it matters.

I'm thinking of installing #Tunderbird on my different Linux computers, but I'm worried that it will go the same way as #Firefox with their forcing of #GenAI on users...
Does anyone have any i…

Have you recently noticed increased #Mozilla work on #firefox ? From small things like finally supporting .mkv files playing, through better linux support (things related to GPU support, XDG dir spec), AI stuff, AI stuff kill switch for anti-AI fetishists, to new GUI on Android.... Probably m…

Unpopular opinion (maybe): Everyone is shitting on #Mozilla for stuffing #AI into #Firefox. And I largely agree. But I would actually like to see _more_ AI in

How should #firefox pay developers?

Och FFS.
"#Firefox will grow from a browser into a broader ecosystem of trusted software."
"It will evolve into a modern AI #browser and support a portfolio of new and trusted software additions."
One job. A browser has ONE. SINGLE. JOB.

#Firefox made me talk about #Linux, wohoo!

Etwas nervig, in letzter Zeit stürzt mir der #Firefox unter #Lubuntu Linux so ab, dass gar nichts mehr geht und nur noch der Ausschalter bleibt. Habe noch keine Lösung gefunden.

#Mozilla is doing great. #Firefox is vendoring an old vulnerable version of #Expat with custom patches on top. Of course, they never even bothered communicating their needs to Expat upstream. But I guess when AI is the future, #security is a thing of the past.
(That said, I don't know if these vulnerabilities actually affect Firefox.)

Okay, okay, I get it. Thanks Mozilla. I'll give Vivaldi a try at the weekend. Seesh.

Noticed only today, since moving my #Emacs environment over to the new laptop last November, all my #OrgRoam 'dailies' are not orgroam files, they are basic #OrgMode files 🥹 C-c n d d does resolve to the right org-roam command, but these files contain only a # title and nothing else.
It was likely naive of me to expect my .emacs to be relocatable.
I don't suppose there's a function to mass-convert org-files to org-roam? Well, that's what keystroke macros are for, I suppose!
On a positive note, my #Firefox kiosk issue was solved by MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=0 which is odd since I'm running Wayland and it had worked fine since September until I added and then removed /etc/firefox/policies/policy.json
