1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  • 5. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.

    The template of this meme is that of the man who cheerfully points his hand at a butterfly, asking "Is this a pigeon"?. In this meme, the man has been covered with icons of the applications IntelliJ, VSCode, Chromium and Signal. The butterfly which he points to is overlaid with the caption ".config". He asks "Is this a trash can?" At the bottom of the image, we see the command du -sh executed on the directories .config/chromium/ and .config/Code, yielding file sizes of 1016M and 83M respectively.

    I use ungoogled chromium, but only for sites that absolutelly don'y wanna work on firefox.

    [–] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 27 points 16 hours ago (6 children)

    I'm surprised. I haven't had a website not work with Firefox for a long time. I haven't even had to install chromium as a backup in almost two years now.

    I actually use chromium to do watch party’s. As you can disable hardware acceleration and for some reason the Netflix DRM doesn’t work anymore. (So I can stream the video to friends on dc)

    But otherwise I never had problems with Firefox.

    Proxmox, when connected to a host, will not see symbols and instead type the numbers instead (shift+1 etc). But it will still type a character, and it's hidden from the user, so you end up screaming WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THIS MOTHERFUCKING PIECE OF SHIT until you try to sudo in fucking chrome and whoop works first try.

    Found that like 9 months ago. Still pissed as fuck. Like 2h of my life gone, thought I fucked my root account, fucking pissing myself trying to copy data off before I do anything in case I was fucked.

    PM needs to fix their shit.

    E: Oh, cpanel recently broke too. I can login, but am immediately logged out because lack of a security token. That one might be because I'm using librewolf, but it was working a month ago so...

    E2: synology, both nas and router, works sometimes in LW, but other times it loads the page but no content. This is regardless of if I am logged in and refresh, or if I'm just trying to login. Shit just doesn't reliably work. Chrome, it's fine.

    I don't want to be that guy but it works for me. I use Proxmox all the time in Librewolf.

    With symbols in your VMs passwords?

    [–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 1 points 4 minutes ago

    You guys are doing passwords?

    Anyway I've never had issues with symbols but I also don't have a international keyboard. (Mine is US layout)

    Just yesterday I had shadow.tech's Cloudflare "vErIFY yOuR hUmAN" fail on me in Firefox. I had fucking paid for a month already otherwise that would have been enough to turn me off.

    [–] toebhi@slrpnk.net 1 points 9 minutes ago

    This always happens to me. How can one get around that (without using chrom*)

    [–] MonkeMischief@lemmy.today 3 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 10 hours ago)

    I haven't had a website not work with Firefox for a long time.

    Me too...mostly? But the cases I've seen or encountered are always government, financial, education, or medical websites with some super-bespoke "portal" that will simply act bizarre on Firefox.

    It really sucks that it seems so common to just glance at some "market-share" data and, not just assume everybody must use Chrome, but go so far as to force them to.

    [–] devfuuu@lemmy.world 7 points 15 hours ago

    They are out there. I also have it around for those occasions. More common that you'd expect. Almost always some shitty site needed for work that has problems.

    [–] Estebiu@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

    Firefox doesnt support web serial.

    [–] wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world 2 points 6 hours ago

    Oh yeah that reminds me, to use the Graphene web installer, you need chrome. To revert to factory, chrome.

    [–] Mwa@lemm.ee 6 points 20 hours ago

    Same but I use Cromite or i try using a electron app (like heroic) on my pc.
