I have just been doing some ghost recon on this today actually. I see they are hoping to make it more embeddable like webkit is. I can’t wait for that api because I’m building an app that has need of that. In fact I ran my reveal.js presentation I use for my church in it tonight. It can’t do video yet, but most of the presentation was fine. I think animations were a bit wonky.

That said, I think they both are great. Servo doesn’t want to be the browser itself while ladybird is looking to be both. I’d love to build my own qutebrowser like browser around servo once it’s more ready.

So it doesn’t download for later use? It just becomes a proxy system to stream from the debrid service?

No clue why except i think people are mostly just really fed up with Mozilla making a non profit about everything but their browser. I could see a lot of people prefer the name and the willingness to try new stuff compared to floorp.

But really i think most of it is it’s very different from Firefox and people are tired of Firefox… But still hate chromium.

I’ve never used a VPN with it.

Yes, but also… It’s true. Browsers are the number one way folks get viruses.

Correct but she does ensure they are legit last i read.

Most of the time i get them from specific trusted sources. Then i hash them to make sure they are still the same file the author says it is. Like johncena cracks or similar.

Many games I try out as pirated and then buy them after I know I enjoy them. Sometimes I don’t enjoy them and then I’m glad I didn’t spend $60.

A year and a half? Basically when hyprland got good enough. I used to use awesome and needed something with similar pretty features.

Yea, the whole thing has always given me a lot of pause when I comes to GOS. I’m sure it’s still an awesome solution, but makes me think twice. In the end I have literally zero need or desire for anything Google running on my phone so I’m on calyx.

Everything is declared, from packages to configuration, and then I can put it in a git repo locked to versions. If something breaks on updates, you have free rollbacks. Which means you can’t screw up too much. Also it has almost all the software.

NixOS

While that’s true, all the things they built are individual and open source, it wouldn’t take too much work for sometime who knows how to package things up for a phone app. That said, you’d need another device to do all the processing.

I’ll be honest, I’ve used scribus some and have not liked it. I hope that this makes it better. I much prefer a local Foss program to being forced to run a VM for publisher or make stuff in canva.

Is this for real? So I shouldn’t be worried about using certain websites that they’ll track me around?

I’ve been using Nix for over a year. And have had a pretty good experience. Then in the last 2 months I’ve switched to Guix. Its definitely farther behind. But it has such a better tooling story. I really wish folks could see the potential it has and build for it rather than nix because Guix has so much going for it.

The overall experience for both is great. You get declarative configuration and easy rollback. You do need more storage but it’s not much worse than windows really.

Don’t get me wrong Guix is hard too, you’ll have to package things yourself, or use flatpak, or use distrobox or maybe nix itself just to get all the things you need. BUT if you can grasp the language and packaging guidelines, it’s much more clearly laid out. The CLI tools are clearer, the methods are too. It’s not this confusing split mess that seems to be with NixOS. And there is still not a clear plasma desktop. But I’m trying to fix that perhaps. 😁

This. The nix language makes anything bigger harder. A big nix config is just hard to wrangle.

That might be true, but WebKit anywhere other than safari performed horrible for me.

This needs so much more noise! If only some of us were part of major news channels, more shareholders need to know now that reddit is in IPO process. It’ll hurt bad.
