From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

A little admiration of how easy UI customization is on Firefox, and how shitty Chromium looks.

Except Firefox’s bookmark system on android is absolute crap and looks hideous.

Mobile browsers all suck.

What is your alternative? I want E2EE sync. Is vivaldi better? But honestly I wouldnt use their browser.

Firefox has E2EE sync??

[–] Pantherina@feddit.de 19 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Do you have a link to that info? Would that also work with Mullvad browser?

Use iceraven, it's a 🍴 of 🦊

Iceraven is a mess. Their extension list is totally random, has tons of duplicates and fundamentally incompatible ones. I went through all of them and tested them and reported what was broken and what was missing.

That alone is enough to convince me not to use their browser. Mull is based.

You can use my extension collection to get everything
