It's not like they'd develop a new engine for iOS. They already have one which can now be used for iOS as well -- but not everywhere.

It's not in the linked article, but it was part of it in the beta release notes. Now it's on the dedicated Android release notes page (https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/android/122.0/releasenotes/):

  • Firefox for Android can now be set as the default PDF reader.
  • Firefox for Android now supports enabling Global Privacy Control. With this feature, Firefox informs websites that the user doesn’t want their data to be shared or sold. This feature is enabled by default in private browsing mode and can be enabled in normal browsing in Settings → Enhanced Tracking Protection -> Tell websites not to share & sell data toggle.
  • To reduce user fingerprinting information and the risk of some website compatibility issues, the OS version is now always reported as "Android 10" in Firefox for Android's User-Agent string.

Maybe a bit patience will do, since Thunderbird is planning to...

a) make an iOS app b) add support for sync to you can sync your settings and account conifgurations between devices

I don't know of any good solution that works right now however. :-/

Side note: in recent versions of Firefox you can use right clickCopy Link Without Site Tracking to get a clean version of the link without any tracking paramters.

I second the recommendation for Tree Style Tabs, however Sideberry did work better for me (don't recall why, sorry).

One downside is that they don't hide the horizontal tab bar on the top. AFAIK you can manually hide it by editing the userstyle css file.

Oh, I didn't know that. Can you point me to some relevant documentation by any chance? Would love to sort that one out.

[–] 0xCAFE@feddit.de 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Hm, thanks for sharing. Maybe a clean install will sort out the issue. Should try that when I'll have some time.

Should I approach the team about this?

Yes, certainly. It sounds like some/most members of the team don't understand the stylesheet architecture of your project and it's vital to sort that out ASAP. The more time passes, the harder it will get to get everything back on track.

Try to avoid finger-pointing and this shouldn't be a very hard conversation (assuming they aren't super stubborn).


As a side note, the fact that you first address this issue on the Fediverse and not in your team makes me think that maybe there are some underlying issues regarding trust and open communication. You might want to further look into that. Take it with a large grain of salt though. I don't really know anything about your team so it's likely that I overdramatize the situation.

Personally, I'm not interested in the type of posts you mention. However, I don't mind it. In general I think it's great to tell the world if you ditch Windows for Linux, because it shows other (Windows) users that they can do it, too.

Though I have to agree that for a dedicated Linux community, it doesn't add too much value. If I think a post is a bad fit for the community, I vote it down.

Maybe not exactly what you're looking for, but Marginalia (https://search.marginalia.nu/) focuses on non-commercial and text-based content.

I'm not aware of any functionality which allows to block messages from unknown users. I think blocking them might be your only option right now.

Easier said than done (and already too late for you), I know, but: in general, be careful where you leave your number...

Thanks for not only posting your issue, but also updating with newly discovered information. I wasn't aware that uBlock can prevent caching.
