I love using librewolf until it breaks a page bad enough I need to use Firefox anyways

Are you referring to websites that use WebGl like Google Earth? If that is the case, there is an option for enabling it on settings.

I'm hoping for a browser that isn't google chromium or google funded. I heard there is one under development

ladybird devs are terfs and I'm not interested in dealing with terfs

slang for transphobes, short for trans exclusionary radical feminist, although nowadays many terfs are not feminist whatsoever just tend to agree with their transphobic opinions.

I say this because the devs included instructions in the source, that assume the reader is male, several people requested changes to be made to make the language more inclusive, literally just change he to they. the devs refused to do so and instead spend more time defending their position to keep it male centric, than it would take to just make the changes.

you might say, wow that seems like a really simple thing to change and it would make lots of people happy, but instead they would rather alienate perpetual users like me

I wasn't talking about anything specific, but I will check those two out!

Friendship ended with Firefox
Now Firefox with mild modifications is my best friend

Yeah, I'm not sure, you've really ended that friendship...

The AUR package seems perpetually out of date... Though not at the moment, admittedly.

Why not use flatpak?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

I love libre wolf but can't get it to run on arch. So Firefox it is

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Tried installing the non flatpak version several times on arch but it won't work then earlier I decided to look up librewolf download arch cus of this meme to see what I can retry and apparently I was trying to compile its entirety instead of downloading it normally (the bin version)... Finally have it LoL.
