Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #webbrowser, aggregated by home.social.

  1. Opera Air – an innovative web browser that will improve the well-being of users. Opera Air provides the lion’s share of features found in the basic Opera One, with a few exceptions – the new version will not feature tab islands or screen splitting. archiveapp.org/opera-air/ #webbrowser #windows #osx

  2. «Firefox Has Quietly Integrated Brave's Adblock Engine:
    Back in March, Firefox 149 was released with many changes, like a free built-in VPN, a Split View that allows the loading of two pages side by side, and the XDG portal file picker as the new default on Linux.»

    …or/and use and config the @ublockorigin plugin for more security and privacy in Firefox.

    I have migrated to and for quite a long time already, but never got round to uninstalling . I just did! 🍾

    It did leave behind more than what the docs (mzl.la/1xKrDkl) say.

    Using `find ~ -name "*firefox*"`, I found the rest of the files and deleted them.

  4. Midori web browser by @[email protected]. Now, there's a web browser I've not thought about for quite a while.  Installing it on my Debian machines to give it another try.

    Vielleicht ein Tipp (leider nur für #android Nutzer): github.com/mcastillof/FakeTrav

    Ansonsten:
    - #GPS standardmäßig aus
    - aufpassen, welchen Apps man Zugriff auf den Standort gibt
    - #adblocker und #scriptblocker mit passenden Listen nutzen. Wohl gemerkt nicht im #webbrowser, sondern systemweit.

    #werbung zu blockieren ist schon lange mehr als nur Ausblenden von nervigen Bannern im #internet, sondern #digitaleselbstverteidigung.

  6. #Sunstone browser now has a searchable history. The period to display can be set to the last hour, day, week, a custom timeframe or 'all'. There is also an option to group the results by host. By default, 50 results are displayed per page.

    This is a WIP and subject to change. This biggest miss so far is a link in the page to navigate beyond the first page of results, although you can get there by appending 'page/<n>' to the url. The link to the host also needs fixed to point to the correct uri scheme. There are other missing features, such as the ability to delete history items or bookmarks, and while there is a growing list of settings there isn't anywhere to change them yet. One step at a time.

    History and bookmarks are currently displayed in web page form. I'll be adding abbreviated displays in the sidebar eventually.

  11. #Sunstone browser now has a start page, with default search provided by DuckDuckGo. All of Sunstone's internal pages are going to be linked through the menu bar provided in the default page template. I am no web designer, but I've taken time to make the design responsive and hopefully nice and cleanly functional. Shrink the page down past a certain level and the sidebar becomes a top bar.

    There are still some omissions in the "internal" pages that are available. Right now you get the start page, searchable bookmarks and an "all tags" page, which really neads some visual tweaking.

    Some other little bits of progress include fixes to the vertical tabs so that now you can drag and drop to reorder from the vertical tab bar, the regular tab bar or the overview and everything syncs up correctly. I also added a "New Tab" button to the vertical tabs, which had been missing in the first iteration.

  16. Any recommendations on a specific #Linux #WebBrowser? I'm a long time #Firefox user, but it's having constant memory leaks that are causing me major slowdowns in my work.

    I mainly just want a good vertical tab browser. I normally would use #MSEdge as my fallback, but it's having a weird flickering bug that keeps unfocusing my cursor when inspecting.

    I'm currently stranded on #Chrome Unstable.

  17. #TodayInHistory: 1996 - Netscape Communications ships the Netscape Navigator 2.0 #webbrowser

    It was the first browser to support #JavaScript and animated GIFs, two technologies still predominant on the #web today.

  18. Responded to #Mozilla's survey...

    "Focus on making a more robust, feature-filled, and extensible browser: you used to be the #1 alternative to #Internet Explorer, because #Firefox was more efficient and had stuff like tabs. Stop worrying about putting in #AI nobody cares about: I am an AI researcher and don't see myself using it, definitely don't see myself switching browsers to chase it, and even if I wanted it I would just install a Gemini add-on or something."

    ...in hindsight, I should have also mentioned the Fediverse. Someone else remember to mention Fedi.

  19. 🚨 New Video: 5 Browser Extensions That Give You Real Digital Independence

    If you are browsing the web without an ad blocker, your browser is an open door for data brokers. But at this point, uBlock Origin is just the bare minimum. In the new video, I am sharing the 5 free and open source (FOSS) browser extensions I use to harden my system, poison data profiles, and actively fight back against the surveillance economy.

  20. Servo 2025 Stats

    On this curve we clearly see the drop in contributions following the abandon by Mozilla and the incredible rise since.

    2023 was already a better year than 2020, and it was x3 in 2025 compared to Mozilla's period. A beautiful square-root shaped curve : √

    Ok it's not ready yet, but a lot of people are rushing toward this goal.

  21. Say what you will about #Deepseek , but for #hacking it can be useful.

    It is quite dumb and you have to hand hold it a bit, but..


    #Selenium + #API call reverse engineering and I can login to my dumb #TPLink router via #sh now.

    I wonder if I could reboot it from shell or even read out its microSD capacity left...
    Hmmmm......


    I don't see much else use for #AI tho tbh.
    #Art ? Get outta here.
    #Movies ? Get lost.
    #Cloning #Voice actors and deprive them of their living ? Are you lost ?

    Anyways.
    It is always the same with humans misusing tools ...
    At least this is now abit more useful than my past attempts especially as dumb #TPLink closed #telnet in that latest update.

    I'll hack this thing to bits if I must... :angry_cirno:

    (Altho the thing I wanted the most. Accessing #sftp from #webbrowser via a simple php is already possible... )


    I mean I feel sorry for the people who think #ArtificialIntelligence (emphasis on artificial) is #coding or anything near it.
    I started with js and ahk in like 2007. Added #php when js needed handholding and only arrived at #python when a companies security guidelines barred #ahk (as keylogger lol)
    So yeah.

    But poor people.. Poor pooor people.

    And I do catch myself sometimes thinking "yeah lets toss this trash into multiple LLMs to see what they get.
    Sometimes I bounce the ideas between them or restart sessions as sometimes they have ideas you can't finde with #searchengines.

    Imo LLMs are search engines.
    Nothing more. Nothing less.
    Very dumb, but vast in data.

  22. Free Software that I rely on. One per day.

    Day 24:

    Firefox

    I've been using Mozilla-based browsers since Netscape, and I still do.

    And a LOT of my time is spent using the browser, whether socializing on the Fediverse or managing my server.

    Despite the current kerfuffle over Mozilla incorporating opt-out AI features that no one wants, I think they are still the best option. Perhaps I'll have to tinker with my settings, or perhaps I'll use one of the several available forks -- but it'll still be Mozilla underneath.

    Also, I think it is critical to retain an ecosystem of multiple browsers, rather than a single approved one. We saw the dangers of that with Internet Explorer, and we see it now with Chromium dependencies.

  23. @desirable_dialogue I just wrote about this, although not created by the tor community there is an early development browser with an independent web engine called Ladybird Browser, the lead dev believes in white genocide and supports dhh (see links below) but this is the only other web engine I know of other than chromium and firefox and the apple one maybe it can be forked.

    Like I say in the link maybe the solution is to write websites for a simpler protocol than Http at this point like Gemini or Gopher or to just use a reduced html featureset so as to be compliant with reduced html featureset browsers that are more realistic to maintain without capitalist investment
