We can’t even do an express railway neither…

(in truth it took me a few baffled minutes to get the joke, though enjoyed the background painting whilst furrowing my brow)

Am tired, but bit confused at sequence of events.

Did Russia ban Mozilla from offering specific extensions, whereupon Mozilla removed for Russian users the banned extensions?

Or…

Did Russia ban Mozilla from offering some undefined type of extension, whereupon Mozilla removed for Russian users any which seemed to fall under the ban under an abundance of caution until they could assess each & reinstate those which did not fit the ban?

Or, more worryingly, but maybe implied by the supposed temporary intent of the ban…

Did Russia ban Mozilla from offering specific extensions, whereupon Mozilla temporarily removed for Russian users the extensions in order to give Russia the ability to track or otherwise meddle with Russian users of those extensions… or to enable Russia to interfere with the extensions’ code for their own ends?

I feel I can make a reasonable guess, but there’s a fairly big safety issue here depending on what happened.

Anyone dissenting within an authoritarian regime knows to exercise extreme caution, but always good to put out reminders to have multiple layers of protection, so if one fails you are still ok.

Yes, but now consider the state of the ladies in the OP who have tomatoes.

Insanity lies beyond the crisis

(actually love tomatoes, but may be faintly deranged also)

Down with this milquetoast toleration of the intolerant!

That one’s good enough to suggest to them!

Can see why they’d maybe be wary of getting into appraising open source projects if taking payments, but maybe something they could collaborate on with EFF & others. Maybe also that “alternative to” project, which doesn’t currently focus on open source stuff but naturally covers quite a lot of it.

Snack, but only if they get a bunch of us at once, much like a solitary peanut isn’t very satisfying.

For safety, we’d come to live in fortified boxes affixed to their backs, and the distances between each of these chihuahua-mounted citadels would be ever changing as a result.

Giant chihuahuas snaffling up us tiny humans.

Maybe just so new users realise they’re a thing.

Firefox out of the box isn’t very attractive, so mixing in themes by default maybe helps retain new people without driving us lot away.

We will arse them on the beaches?

They hear someone recommend it, maybe on foot of a conversation about privacy concerns, and give it a try.

Doesn’t mean they’ve got to grips with it, but if they haven’t uninstalled it, they probably retain the intent to try.

Grandma’s idea of cooking was shucking oysters & popping champagne to entertain her lovers, so I think she’d only disapprove of the lack of hard drugs in your kitchen.

Bitwarden is on FF, as are various video downloaders. Guessing from the title, equivalents of Singlepage. No idea what Forest or the others do, but a search by functionality may turf something up.

Aye, but OP wants extensions which are on Chrome but which are not on Firefox.

Depends on your aptitude & what you want the extensions to do (some being much more complex than others), but most people can learn the skills needed.

You’ll only know if you try, but even if you can’t manage to write exactly what you want, you’ll learn a lot on the way.

There are great resources out there, and forums where you can seek help from more experienced people.

There’s also Orion browser, which isn’t FOSS, but which takes both Firefox & Chromium extensions.

Yes, but first, potato.

Tbh was referring to devices generally. I don’t go near televisions today. Too big, too expensive & way too much faff.

I was happy with the quality, and don’t get more enjoyment from all the advancements since, but only ever remember plugging it into the wall, plugging an aerial into the back of it & pressing one button to get the tuner to pick up channels. Batteries into the remote once that became a thing. Plug in a VCR or DVD player once they appeared.

No need for a phone line or internet or updates.

Feels like everything is much more a faff to set up, then one bit updates & something or other is longer compatible.

Don’t even want to think about the waste it must generate, both of devices & of the hours trying to get things to work whether at the development end or in the home.
