Imagine if all the hours spent shitposting on Lemmy was spent on a single distribution.
The ways people enjoy spending their time are not interchangeable. Or in other words: https://fosstodon.org/@bragefuglseth/113183569977642462

I mean, the extension system means we could easily fix it
If that’s the case, then why not do it? Apparently the people who actually worked on X11 had a different idea, and so they decide not to do it themselves - but the code is right there for those who do think that that’s a good approach.
Likewise, there are plenty of definitions of “better” that make Wayland a lot better. It’s just that it’s a lot of work to make something better, especially for some interpretations of “better”.
The authentic French translation of forking.
This summary seemed pretty good though.
Doing the lord’s work, thank you.
Yeah, I realise a comment like this is mostly unhelpful (switching distros is a pain, of course - even just the hassle of moving over your data), but it does remind me how glad I am that I did it at some point. Painless upgrades are amazing.
(That said, it’s not entirely risk-free; although I never got an unworkable system, at some point upgrades were blocked until I did some manual work. Universal Blue had similar issues.)
Especially if it’s just another alpha release. They could have 20 more of those, for all I know.
I do, but it’s also a shame that mozilla.social is shutting down.
Ah, gotcha.
Gnome itself is actually not bad. It has a full screen menu and arrangeable application icons and folders, but I cannot group them the way I want, let alone resize them.
I don’t think resizing is an option, but isn’t it possible to drag one app’s icon on top of another app’s icon to create a group?
Yep, not something I’ve noticed.
Looking at the current status, it’s a matter of “not turning it on” rather than “turning it off”, even.
the Internet is embracing AI whether we like it or not
And if not, the feature gets removed again in a year or so. So far it doesn’t really seem like it’s in your face or anything, so 🤷
I don’t know if OP is talking about any specific measures, but in general, I know that Firefox is trying to strike a good balance with its defaults, making it as privacy-respecting as possible without causing half the web to break, or accidentally decreasing people’s privacy.
Nevertheless there are projects like Arkenfox, Librewolf, or people manually messing around in about:config
flipping flags like privacy.resistFingerprinting
(lots of breakage there!), claiming that they increase privacy.
And of course to some extent they do, it’s just that if, a month later, you try to modify a Google Doc and find out that everything is blurry, you’ll have forgotten that you flipped that pref, and switch to a less private browser.
What if people think they have to hack it, but in fact are making themselves more fingerprintable and/or exposing themselves to website breakage that would be unacceptable for most people?
Probably not exactly what you’re asking for (but maybe try finding an extension that does it?), but would it be an option to set Firefox to always Open previous windows and tabs? AFAIK that also restores their container associations.
Now there’s a meme I haven’t seen in a while.
And where did you find that they will do that?
Yeah I was just elaborating on your point.
