Safari’s Private Mode doesn’t mean you are anonymous 🫣 Here’s how you can turn off Apple’s Private Browsing 👉 tuta.com/blog/turn-off-private…

A better solution? Start using a private browser 👉 tuta.com/blog/best-private-bro…

Reason (checks notes) hojillion-forty-seven to use @Vivaldi as your #browser of choice. Don't like the way your right-click menu looks/feels? Change it. I got tired of scrolling to get to the Dev Tools, so I bumped them to the top and liberated "Inspect," which I want 95% of the time anyway. While there, I got rid of everything I don't want or need, eliminating the scroll entirely.

As a #product professional, I adore this level of attention to detail. Well done, folks.

Firefox: Datenschutzverstoß bei der Android-Version

Ok wtf. So you're telling me that #Google #Chrome's #V8 #JavaScript engine was more #insecure than #Mozilla's #Spidermonkey after all these years? Because I'm pretty sure SM has been already doing plenty of the things mentioned in this article (I've touched on SM code plenty of times, so much more than I wanted because I worked on separating Spidermonkey from the monolithic #libxul, it's still hurting my brain...), even before the #Quantum rewrite. So even #PaleMoon which has been commonly trashed for being "old and insecure" is apparently more secure than Chrome, but most crucially it also disproves the long-standing blind belief by security freaks out there that Chrome is "more secure" than #Firefox when it's the other way around on many fronts...

Google Chrome Adds V8 Sandbox - A New Defense Against Browser Attacks

Google tackles Chrome security with new V8 Sandbox. This aims to stop memory issues from spreading, protecting your browser experience.

By popular demand, we made Vivaldi available on #FlatHub. Are you using #Flatpak? Have you downloaded @Vivaldi yet? Did you tell your friends?😀

Remember that you can use the "Advanced Web Interface", accessible from your Mastodon account settings, for a TweetDeck-like interface on desktop!

This makes it way easier to see stuff at a glance. If it isn't your thing though, you don't need to use it.

Also note that you can adjust which columns are pinned, so if your local and federated timelines move too quickly, you can just unpin them to only see Home and Notifs, or only open them up manually when you want to see them!

Boost this so people can be made aware!

Mozilla: "In a well-intentioned yet dangerous move to fight online fraud, France is on the verge of forcing browsers to create a dystopian technical capability. It would force browser providers to create the means to mandatorily block websites present on a government provided list. Such a move will overturn decades of established content moderation norms and provide a playbook for authoritarian governments"

France’s browser-based website blocking proposal will set a disastrous precedent for the open internet - Open Policy & Advocacy

Article 3 (para II and III) of the SREN Bill would force providers to create the means to mandatorily block websites on a government provided list encoded into the browser.

So, my first #vivaldi
#web #browser poll has ended. the results are here: mastodon.social/@Unatributed/1…

Unfortunately not a lot of respondents, but the ~60/40 split was enough to get me to install vivaldi.

Unfortuantely I won't be sticking with it. Why? My main reason for installing it was the new mail client, which reminded me of the old #Mozilla and #opera browsers. Alas, the mail client doesn't work the way I need it to, and there are lots of forum posts about problems with it...

Curiosity: Do you use the #vivaldi #browser? Or are you using something else? (Should a I do a multiple choice browser survey?) Please boost so I can get some good data. [ ] Yes [ ] No

MoeNavigator development can continue after I finally found the source of the memory leaks in the browser engine. They were caused by an abstract class that didn't have a virtual destructor, causing undefined behavior. With that big problem out of the way, version 0.0.1 of the engine may soon be released, followed by version 0.1 of MoeNavigator. There are only a few tasks left before the release:

MoeNavigator is an attempt to write a web browser that is highly configurable, secure, anonymous and fast.

Linux life hack: say you have a page open in Firefox on your Linux machine and you want to view it on your phone (and you don’t have some fancy integration between the two)…

Instead of typing in the URL, get the FxQRL extension that shows you a QR code of the current tab’s URL and aim your phone’s camera at it.

Boom! :)
