Shut-in, keeper of weird hours.
Can’t receive SMS message from infomaniak, so can’t sign up! 🙁 Well, so much for that…
EDIT: How ever I try to sign up for a free email account with them, infomaniak throws up roadblocks of one kind or another, whether on mobile or desktop. According to this users are required to provide a phone number and then enter a verification code sent by SMS, which never arrives. Looked promising. Oh well, too bad.
Yes, coincidence, I promise 🙂
If a synched mobile version is on the way, I could try it out on the desktop…
Ok (um, then they do it why?) My attention has been really divided for the past couple days, so I haven’t really read very deeply into PPA.
Didn’t know that; maybe they should reconfigure themselves to be more like Wikipedia? 🤷 It seems like Wikipedia has way more users than FF, and they’re able to keep going on the small donations they request from time to time.
Indeed it does! And it might be nice if it wasn’t checked by default like it was in mine, but ok, I guess.
Also, what have hamsters ever done to you? 😉
Piefed seems nice.
Does anyone know if the PPA/Personal Pan Pizza Privacy/Whatever thing has an about:config entry or is it controlled from about:preferences#privacy?
EDIT: To answer my own question, the about:config entry is “dom.private-attribution.submission.enabled” which should be set to “false”; for those of us who use arkenfox, you should add this to your user-overrides.js file and then run the updater:
user_pref(“dom.private-attribution.submission.enabled”, false); // Disable Privacy-Preserving Attribution
This is correct AFAICT.
EDIT EDIT: Also, possibly naive question: Why can’t Mozilla/Firefox just ask for donations like Wikipedia does instead of sneaking around, which they sort of seem to do once in a while?
That’s what I thought, but thanks for your response. Is the Fediverse/ActivityPub going to address this at some point? Maybe there should be a flowchart of some kind that shows which Fediverse platforms can interact with others (and how).
Hi ulkesh, looks like you might be responding to a comment I deleted because I felt like I was bragging and being too preachy. Anyway, do you use any other flavors of Linux besides Garuda (I had to look it up, I hadn’t heard of it!)? How do you like it? And your DE environment of choice is, I guess, KDE?
As far as InDesign alternatives go, do people know about VivaDesigner or even LaTeX for that matter?

Time to switch to Linux 😁👍 (there are plenty of Adobe alternatives for it, although they don’t necessarily offer 100% replacements). I’m convinced that Adobe is one of the major reasons that people stick with windows. If worse comes to worse you can run windows on Linux using a virtual machine (and believe you me, if I can do it then you can too).
Ah, I see, thank you. May I ask where you found that?
🙂👍

Thanks! Will give it a try (but may have more questions as I try to set it up).
While we’re on the topic of search engines, does anyone know how to install your own private Whoogle instance? I’ve been a little confused by the instructions I’ve found; do I need my own server to set this up?
Seems like most search engines these days are primarily Google-based or Bing-based. Mojeek has its own crawler, I think…
Real number! Maybe should have tried fake one, but I’ve given up on them at this point.
