  1. @65_percenter How do we as end users (technical or not) make informed choices as to the security of a given browser?

    Is Helium more or less secure than unGoogled Chromium.

    Is unGoogled Chromium more or less secure than Chromium.

    Is Chromium more or less secure than Chrome.

    Is LibreWolf more or less secure than Firefox.

    How do SeaMonkey, Waterfox and Palemoon compare to what their parent project has become.

    All rhetorical I guess.

    Catch of the Day: The Operating System of the Future That Stayed in the Past! 🐝💻

    Hey Retro Fans!
    Today, we get to celebrate a very special guest in the FrogFind logs. A user found their way to us using the SeaMonkey browser on BeOS!

    For those who weren't active in the tech scene in the late 90s: BeOS was the absolute dream of every power user. It was written from scratch by former Apple developers and specifically optimized for multimedia and true multitasking on multiprocessor systems. It was incredibly fast, stable, and featured a beautiful user interface.

    In fact, in late 1996, Apple was very close to buying BeOS to use it as the foundation for the new Mac OS. If that deal had gone through, the computer world would look completely different today! (Apple ultimately chose NeXTSTEP instead and brought Steve Jobs back).

    The fact that this technical masterpiece still lives on and is maintained in the retro community today (both the original and its open-source successor, Haiku), and that someone is using it to visit the Frog pond, is a huge honor for us.

    May multitasking always be with you!
    Your FrogFind Team 🐸

  3. Kmail/KAddressBook can't connect to my Google account, and KAddressBook can't connect to my domain's DAV server. 🤷

    Trying SeaMonkey next, although that's basically just Thunderbird/Firefox/more stuff in one blob.

  4. Кофе по SSH, сайты в zip-архивах. Чистый HTML лучше всего

    Очень интересная штука — интернет-магазин в консоли . Он позволяет авторизоваться в магазине и заказать товар (кофе), не выходя из терминала. Говорят , кофе из командной строки даже вкуснее, чем обычное. Просто заходим в магазин по SSH: ssh terminal.shop или ssh 172.65.113.113

  5. then implements modern features in Safari/Webkit really slowly

    That's good actually, because you #webdevs keep chasing the shiny new features #Chrome / #Chromium / #Blink is pushing to the #web like fucking fireflies, to the detriment of #webcompat with small #browsers like #PaleMoon, #Basilisk, and others based on #UXP / #Goanna / #XUL (like #SeaMonkey).

    As someone who used to work actively in Pale Moon's development, I am witness to a website that almost broke its #compatibility with my #browser but was stopped because the new feature it wanted to require was not yet available in an old #Safari / #WebKit version they're still supporting.

    So yes, from my point of view, #Apple does more to support the #openweb than #Mozilla and #Firefox (which always follows Chrome whenever it's not controversial) does, even if it didn't intend to. And to be clear, I am not even an Apple fanboy. The only Apple device I own is this ancient 1st generation of the iPad mini. I don't like their ecosystem.

    So it's not a bad take. It's the reality we independent desktop browser developers see in #webdev. ☕

  6. @CyDeFect @FiLiS all of these are missing too many details to tell anything about them. Except for #CIFS (although you probably don't even want that but #SMB3 instead, #Linux just kept tthe "CIFS" name although supporting SMB3), all #FreeBSD offers is indeed #SMB1. Whether this is an issue or not depends on your scenario and environment. I just offer my shares via #NFS as well, problem solved for me.

    BTW, #seamonkey was removed mainly because of a #python2 (EOL for a long time) build dependency. IIRC this is meanwhile solved, so the port *could* be readded, it's just someone would have to do it and maintain it. There's an inofficial port available, you'll find it on the forums.
