#OpenSource #FreeSoftware

Whether Matt Mullenweg likes it or not, #Wpengine does not owe #Wordpress *any percentage of money. Being that Wordpress is opensource.

Apparently there was a time himself where Mullenweg himself even acknowledged that this was true. What has come of the #CEO of Wordpress in these modern times.

Apparently, he wants Wpengine to contribute to Wordpress, but if Wordpress is opensource, they don't *have to contribute, but they can. That's the point of opensource. If you want paid that badly it shouldn't be an opensource project. Or find another way to get paid. Like he could try #ads or something it doesn't have to be like this.

Imagine if #Mozilla #Firefox asked every single browser #fork to pay them, and to contribute, and that they had to do so. Or every #google #Chromium fork.

What he is asking for is anti opensource. If he wants capitalism, he should be maintaining software with that type of licensing.

Solution: I just needed to disable Firefox Color in about:addons.

I set a theme with Firefox Color, I tried changing the theme in settings to light or dark but neither work. I'm wondering if there are other ways to do so in Firefox that I could try. I'm on zen browser which is why it may not have worked.

Les infos sur le nouveau #gouvernement vous gonflent…?
Vous frôlez l'indigestion médiatique…?

Nos bénévoles ont mis à jour #Proutify, l'extension #firefox (et #chrome) qui met des prouts dans les noms des puissants.
(oui, c'est du vent, mais ça soulage !)

Solved: It turns out I needed to add https:// to the redirect URL. I now edited the redirect to be this:

{
    "createdBy": "Redirector v3.5.3",
    "createdAt": "2024-12-25T00:25:04.487Z",
    "redirects": [
        {
            "description": "sh.reddit.com submission page",
            "exampleUrl": "https://old.reddit.com/r/firefox/submit?selftext=true",
            "exampleResult": "https://sh.reddit.com/r/firefox/submit?selftext=true",
            "error": null,
            "includePattern": "https://.*?reddit.com/((r|u|user)/.*?/submit.*)",
            "excludePattern": "",
            "patternDesc": "",
            "redirectUrl": "https://sh.reddit.com/$1",
            "patternType": "R",
            "processMatches": "noProcessing",
            "disabled": false,
            "grouped": false,
            "appliesTo": [
                "main_frame"
            ]
        }, 
    ]
}

Using the Redirector addon, I wrote a redirect from a Reddit submit page to the new new Reddit submit page but it doesn't work when I go to https://old.reddit.com/r/firefox/ and click "submit text", it just takes me to https://old.reddit.com/r/firefox/submit?selftext=true despite the link working in the example box.

Reproduction: Install the addon, save the following as a json file, click on addon icons and select "edit redirects", then click import to select the json file.

{
"createdBy": "Redirector v3.5.3",
"createdAt": "2024-12-22T15:43:42.356Z",
"redirects": [
{
"description": "sh.reddit.com submission page",
"exampleUrl": "https://old.reddit.com/r/tds_roblox/submit",
"exampleResult": "sh.reddit.com/r/tds_roblox/submit",
"error": null,
"includePattern": "[a-z]+?:\\/\\/.+?reddit.com\\/((r|u|user)\\/.+?\\/submit.*?$)",
"excludePattern": "",
"patternDesc": "",
"redirectUrl": "sh.reddit.com/$1",
"patternType": "R",
"processMatches": "noProcessing",
"disabled": false,
"grouped": false,
"appliesTo": [
"main_frame"
]
},
{
"description": "Old Reddit",
"exampleUrl": "https://www.reddit.com/r/reddit",
"exampleResult": "https://old.reddit.com/r/reddit",
"error": null,
"includePattern": "[a-z]+?:\\/\\/.*?\\.reddit\\.com\\/(((r|u|user)\\/.*)|$)",
"excludePattern": "[a-z]+?:\\/\\/.+?reddit.com\\/((r|u|user)\\/.+?\\/submit.*?$)",
"patternDesc": "",
"redirectUrl": "https://old.reddit.com/$1",
"patternType": "R",
"processMatches": "noProcessing",
"disabled": false,
"grouped": false,
"appliesTo": [
"main_frame"
]
}
]
}

Tab Groups is getting enabled in desktop nightly by default. No news on mobile yet, but it's a step in the right direction.

Illustration of overlapping browser windows with Ecosia's logo, a tree graphic, Firefox's logo, and the text "Together for a better web," alongside a search bar with a green cursor.

Your tech choices matter more than ever. That’s why at Mozilla, we believe in empowering users to make informed decisions that align with their values. In that spirit, we’re excited to announce our partnership with Ecosia, a search engine that prioritizes sustainability, and social impact.

Did you know you could choose the search engine of your choice right from your Firefox URL bar? Whether you prioritize privacy, climate protection, or simply want a search experience tailored to your preferences, we’ve got you covered.

Ecosia goes beyond data protection by addressing environmental concerns. Every search made through the search engine contributes to tree-planting projects worldwide, helping to combat deforestation and regenerate the planet. Ecosia planted over 215 million trees, across the planet biodiversity hotspots, making a tangible difference in the fight against climate change. Just like Mozilla, they are committed to creating a better internet, and world, for everyone.

Together, Mozilla, Firefox and Ecosia are contributing to a web that is more open and inclusive, but above all — one where you can make an informed choice about what tech you use and why. Your tech choices make a difference.

As Firefox and Mozilla continue to champion user empowerment and innovation, we invite you to join us in shaping a web that makes the world better. Together, let’s make a positive impact — one search at a time.

I don't want text to be unloaded from pages because then I can't see all the results on the CTRL F box. This happens on Discourse forums and New New Reddit (its too bad they removed the 2018 redesign).

For instance, you can go to chrome://browser/content/places/places.xhtml in a browser tab to see the bookmarks and history manager. That link opens the bookmarks, I wonder if there's a URL that opens the history manager directly instead.

I was going to post one myself but searched and found this one.

It would be very very handy to have a simple search bar at the top of the extension dropdown menu, because over time people add a lof of different extensions to their firefox and it becomes very very very tedious to always manually search for the one that I need right now.
So just a simple searchbar at the top that filters extension in the dropdown menu by name would be awesome to have, so that I can quickly find and access its specific extension window.
Also make it so that the search bar is instantly focused when the extension menu pops up, so that the user can immediately start typing and the filtering begins. Then the user can just press enter to launch the extension window of the first element in the list. This would allow for a easy mouse-free keyboard-only navigation.
And before somebody asks: I do not want pin every extension to the toolbar just to quickly access it, it would like to hide away most of them in the dropdown menu instead, so this is not a viable option.

Mozilla isn’t just another tech company — we’re a global crew of activists, technologists and builders, all working to keep the internet free, open and accessible. For over 25 years, we’ve championed the idea that the web should be for everyone, no matter who you are or where you’re from. Now, with a brand refresh, we’re looking ahead to the next 25 years (and beyond), building on our work and developing new tools to give more people the control to shape their online experiences.
