Fair, that is pretty awesome feature, especially for the tab sprawl in this day and age.

I (obviously) use Firefox, and I had the same problem, and found the "Tree Style Tab" extension solves the same problem for me, however it does it in a very different way.

Instead of having your tabs along the top of the window, your tabs are kept in a sidebar, and vertically. Opening new tabs from an already open page makes the new tabs nest under the original tab. You can collapse and expand whole trees of tabs, and move them around should you need to.

It also integrates nicely with the "Container Tabs" putting a colored band next to the tabs belonging to each container.

The tabs being vertical also means that you can always read the titles of the tabs, they don't get "squished".

It does cost a chunk of screen real estate, but for me the organization is worth it.

BTW: The extension doesn't itself hide the tabbar at the top of the window, but that can be hidden with a relatively easy modification to a file.

What is Firefox lacking for you to love it?

Because there's no such thing as private address spaces in IPv6.

If your ISP is IPv6 only, then you need to enable IPv6 for your local network too, which means that every device on your network gets an IPv6 address.

You can still have a private IPv4 as well, but if your remove the IPv6 support, then you lose access too the Internet.

I use Colemak, so I kinda welcome the on-screen keyboard, as the layouts can be switched.

Yeah, definition of "legitimate interest" is definitely being stretched well beyond it's breaking point.

And it actually is... Quote from the GDPR:

This is exactly why I run Linux on all my computers, and run as much open-source software as I can, build my own home server, and set up my own home-automation. It does have a time cost, over convenience, but being able to tailor everything to my needs and wants is a wonderful feeling.

But yes, it would be wonderful if this was a more common mentality in software in general. Especially on mobile devices.

Podcast Addict is not quite as streamlined, but has many more features.

My favorite feature is the "Automatic Rewind" combined with "Incremental rewind". It adds a rewind everytime you pause and resume an episode that increases the longer the podcast has been paused. It means that if I briefly pause, for example to respond to. Some one in real life talking to me, then it will automatically rewind 5 seconds when I start the podcast again, so I can hear the sentence I was in the middle of in full. But if I leave a podcast alone for a week, then it will rewind 1 minute so I can get fully back into the context of what I was listening to.

It's rather important to understand the performance characteristics for people to know what to expect if they want to switch to Linux.

If games ran at half the FPS on Linux as they would have on Windows, then pretty much no one would be gaming on linux.

If you got 90% performance on Linux, only Linux enthusiasts would take the performance hit.

At 100% performance the choice is completely free, people that got fed up with windows could just switch.

When Linux outperforms Windows, this puts us in very interesting territory, as this might even entice a bunch of people to give Linux a try to see whether the switch is worth the performance. I'm personally quite interested in seeing whether this could be the tipping point for Linux on desktop and laptop to really start taking off.

It would be wonderful with something more granular than "NSFW"...

I would love if we got something even more granular like a "Content Warning: ".

Examples:

  • Content Warning: nudity - might be a painting with nude people, might be a photo of nude people, in essence if it isn't porn, but there's exposed genitals, butts or breasts.
  • Content Warning: porn - you can probably guess...
  • Content Warning: gore - images with gore, people missing body parts, often dead as well.
  • Content Warning: death - images with people dying, but without gore.
  • Content Warning: blood - images with some blood, but no death or gore. (often seen in news articles)
  • Content Warning: violence - people fighting, but without turning bloody.

These could of course be expanded with many more categories if need be.

EDIT: added violence by request
