Hi. Zen Browser just released with version 1.16. It has a new feature called Zen Glance, which is pretty cool. You can preview links in the same window as if you opened that link. Press ctrl-click on a link and a window pops up showing you the link/page. You don't have to leave the page you're on either! I clicked on a video link with Zen Glance, and honestly, you could watch a video in Zen Glance while you're on the search page of youtube. I'm not sure of any other browser doing this. It's very awesome in my opinion. Anyways, that's all I wanted to share.

F-droid is telling me that there is a security vulnerability in Mull. Does anyone know what it is? F-droid doesn't provide details, and I can't find anything relevant on Mull's side either. I am assuming it is some out-of-date library but would like to know the risk?

I use Firefox on Android 11 and Windows 11. What's the best way to bypass short links and sites that make us await a certain period of time (say, 10 seconds) before proceeding? Is it Violentmonkey + Bypass all shortlinks (debloated)?

Hi guys, I've been a user of a non foss browser (kiwi) and from a foss browser (bromite, Cromite, fennec, iceraven).

The thing is that I'm looking for browser that support adblock. And also that the accessibility option it's well "optimized". In all of previous browsers, I scale the font to be bigger, but nothing happen... And worked on another browsers (vanilla chromium and ecosia for ex.)

Have a BlackBerry Keyone

Hi! I'm pretty excited about this. I just downloaded Netsurfer browser, and I have tried it in the past, but it was pretty barebones when I did. Recently, it's been improving very nicely. It now has adblock and it now has bookmarks! I'm thrilled that it finally has bookmarks. I might just use it as my main temporarily now. Has anyone given Netsurfer a try?

I don't normally use Firefox forks but this one is really good!

It is currently in alpha.

People have stopped recommending it saying it's slow and clunky. Is brave better than Firefox ? I am talking mainly about pc.

Google Chrome is now encouraging uBlock Origin users who have updated to the latest version to switch to other ad blockers before Manifest v2 extensions are disabled.

As uBlock Origin lead developer and maintainer Raymond Hill explained on Friday, this is the result of Google deprecating support for the Manifest v2 (MV2) extensions platform in favor of Manifest v3 (MV3).

"uBO is a Manifest v2 extension, hence the warning in your Google Chrome browser. There is no Manifest v3 version of uBO, hence the browser will suggest alternative extensions as a replacement for uBO," Hill explained.

"uBO Lite (uBOL) is a pared-down version of uBO with a best effort at converting filter lists used by uBO into a Manifest v3-compliant approach, with a focus on reliability and efficiency as has been the case with uBO since first published in June 2014."

Google Chrome users are also warned to remove or replace the uBlock Origin ad blocker with similar extensions.

A "Find alternative" link also sends them to this Chrome Web Store page, which advises them to switch to uBO Lite, Adblock Plus, Stands AdBlocker, or Ghostery.

Hello! I've posted about the Arc browser before, and the browser just got an update. I went into settings to see if any of the google stuff was there, and it mustve got removed, because they revamped the whole thing. You can customize your browser card now, and edit your arc account. I'm very glad they removed (or hid) most of the google stuff.

I am looking for a addon where I can select a group of links in a page while pressing a key to open them in a new tab.

Linkclump stopped working for me long time ago and I couldn't find any alternative to it.

Hi! I'm learning web development from a video and in the video, the guy installs an addon for chrome called HTML5 Outliner. I'm either using Librewolf or Ungoogled Chromium as my main browser, and I can't seem to install the addon in Ungoogled Chromium. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Is there a setting in Ungoogled Chromium that I need to enable? Anyone know how to bypass this and install the addon?

Put any recommendations in the comments

Hi. I'm seriously considering using Arc as my main browser. It's based on Chrome, though, so it's heavily google-fied. But! It's similar to Vivaldi, in the sense it's unique. The tab tree is on the left and you have a split screen option in the task bar area. You can add chrome extensions also, which is great. It's semi-aimed at power users. I haven't discovered all features yet, so far I'm pretty impressed. It updates almost daily/regularly. I'm definitely gonna put it in my roster of main browsers.

Do you guys think floorp is safe to use? They forked the original firefox. I'm newbie to lemmy, so tell me if this is the wrong sub to post.

Hi. Floorp released an update today, and posted something interesting also. Floorp posted the parent company Ablaze, wanted to monetize Floorp while protecting the privacy of its users. I disagree, because I enjoy Floorp being free. What do you think though?

I've been using Vivaldi the past couple days, and I'm liking it a lot. I like that it has a memory saver now. The workspace feature is pretty cool too. What does Lemmy think of Vivaldi? Fave feature? Bonus question: Do you use crypto browsers like Brave?

Hi,

any LibreWolf experts here, that know how this Wolf handles saved password / auto-login? It's the only browser, that I'm aware of that shoots saved credentials directly into the login forms without any further clicks. You just have to click "login" and you are ready to go.

Unfortunately here on my workplace I'm forced to use Chrome and I have to login on many different site through the day. Mostly 3 to 4 clicks every time:

Activate login form - click Open saved credentials context menu - click Choose desired creds from list - click Login - click

Even the global password manager Keeper is not very helpful on websites. Even more interactions are neccessary for logins.

Firefox is also installed, so I thought someone can recommend an addon or userscript, whereby I'm cautious with third party addons that are handling credentials. On the other site there is Google password manager in Chrome...

Any hints?

Thanks!

Why is this needed?

Extension developers are constantly getting offers to buy their extensions. In nearly every case, the people buying these extensions want to rip off the existing users.

The users of these extensions have no idea an installed extension has changed hands, and may now be compromised.

Under New Management gives users notice of the change of ownership, giving them a chance to make an informed decision about the software they're using.

Supermium is a drop-in replacement for Google Chrome with privacy and usability enhancements, optimized for legacy and modern Windows systems alike. Supermium is developed by Win32 (win32ss on GitHub).

I’ve been using this on my iPhone for a bit (it’s free)

I really like being able to completely customize the address bar and items on it, as well as the main menu items, and the URL menu/contextual menu (the thing that appears when you hold down on a link)

there’s an iPad version available too via TestFlight
