Found a gem for YouTube (V3 extension: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/v3-get-old-youtube-layout/) — which brings the old interface (from the start of XXI century) back. It is more clean, if it is even possible to say "clean" about YouTube interface, and also it is faster as hell than the "modern" one.

On the my box (Thinkpad X220 with i7, 16 Gb of RAM) the usual YouTube lags as hell, even while I'm scrolling. The old interface — works almost instantly, lol.

@samuel that's good. But I have begun running #librewolf just to be sure. They remove the crap at compile time.

@rysiek
Michal, are there Firefox extensions that are compatible with LibreWolf?
For example, I use the tab management app OneTab, and would like to be able to continue using it -- or an alternative -- should I switch to LibreWolf.
I hope you'll be able to tell me that most addons created for Firefox also work in Librewolf, and I'll be off to the races.
#Browsers #Firefox #LibreWolf

Mostly done with moving from Firefox to @librewolf as my daily driver.

Screw Mozilla's "AI" bullshit.

Switch to #LibreWolf is going well. All my #Firefox plugins (disconnect, https everywhere lite+, noscript, KeepassXC integration) all work.

Bookmarks import perfectly fine. It even seems to be faster and smoother.

Warum e.g. zu viel canvas tracking keine gute Idee ist .... und Architekturentscheidungen sind wichtig für #DigitaleSouveränität und #Datenschutz. Ich bin raus aus der PHP-Welt, hier.

Datenschutzfreundlicher Browser #Librewolf mit @nextcloud , lokalem PDF und im Vergleich dazu mit @OpenCloud

1) #Nextcloud PDF display AND print preview im webinterface fails
2) Print Preview lokales PDF nach Download, same browser, works
3) #Opencloud Webinterface works

If you are a DuckDuckGo and Firefox/Librewolf user like myself, and want to use DuckDuckGo's new AI-free version in the main bar. Here is how.

1. Go to Settings, click the Search tab, scroll down to Search Shortcuts.
2. Click Add.
3. This part took some experimentation to figure out the correct URL format, but you'll want to fill in the Engine URL line with the following.

https://noai.duckduckgo.com/?q=%s

4. Fill in whatever name or alias you see fit then click Add Engine. You can now scroll up to Default Search Engine in your Search settings and select the no AI version as your default.

Here is what mine looks like.

@tachan If I had to use #LibreWolf I feel like I would have to undo all of the "tweaks". Doesn't the browser delete all cookies by default when you close it?

@Gargron Why not trying #librewolf ? It is basically #firefox without all the garbage and a few privacy-oriented tweaks.

#LibreWolf v147.0-1 is now available!

Notable Changes:

Thanks to our two new core contributors (<3) we've now fully moved our CI and main release artifacts to @Codeberg! (this might be relevant to check for any downstream packagers) and managed to tackle a whole bunch of other long-open issues!

@milan jetzt hast du mich neugierig gemacht.
Nutze aktuell #librewolf was könnte einen Motivation sein #zen zu nutzen?

@floe I recommend using #librewolf. It will get you the #firefox experience plus a few more privacy protecting settings like letterboxing and will not pass on the AI shenanigans.

@tante Use #Librewolf or #BraveBrowser instead.

Brave is my favourite, can be hardened very easy and is super smooth in handling.

If you're using #Ubuntu or a derivative, and the default Snap version of #Firefox: use Mozilla's #Flatpak from flathub instead. Snappier on complex sites especially, and behaves better & cleaner on #Wayland. This also keeps sandboxing vs. using a plain binary package.

(This also goes for the #LibreWolf flatpak.)
