Looks like I may finally be trying out Librewolf.

I like the out of the box experience of LibreWolf very much but it will not work well for all websites in my case. Luckily Firefox and LibreWolf can be installed and used at the same time without any issues.

Many people probably won’t be bothered by these things, but I am. I don’t want to pay full price for something that I don’t truly own. I miss the familiarity. I miss the reliability. I miss feeling like it’s mine. Dependable. Trustworthy.

Picking my old guitar up again has never looked so appealing. I think I want to go back to investing more time, money, and energy into things that aren’t connected to the internet

Upvoted.

Firefox ESR is like LTS. It would mean less work for LibreWolf maintainers and less upgrades for the users.

Yes. My point was that by using Firefox ESR as base the update cycle would be much slower which I would welcome.

I would not mind if LibreWolf would be based on Firefox ESR (Like Tor and Mullvad browser are). The speed of the amount of new features added to Firefox is something I can do without.

Muting posts and comments is possible with PieFed https://codeberg.org/rimu/pyfedi For Lemmy I guess you or others can check Lemmy's GitHub issues to see whether this feature has been requested already.

A much better choice in my opinion is the newer Soothing Noise Player : https://f-droid.org/en/packages/ie.delilahsthings.soothingloop/

Here's Noice in F-Droid which I stopped using after I saw it asked to make Internet connections :

Okay. Got a source for that ? I had the impression from the SerenityOS developer that the donations came because of the videos that Andreas is making but I could be wrong.

Yup.

Buy any domain name, doesn’t matter what.

Suggested to OP and others that self-hosting email is easy and reliable is a bad idea in my opinion.

Instead I suggest the OP to let go of the "free" requirement. There are at least three email providers that provide email for 1 Euro a month including a few email aliases. Another option is to find a web hosting company that also provides email with web hosting. For example Gandi used to do that though I read they made some changes with their hosting options.

Researchers have found two novel types of attacks that target the conditional branch predictor found in high-end Intel processors, which could be exploited to compromise billions of processors currently in use.

 

Trying to access this https://web.archive.org/web/https://www.dataguidance.com/news/czechia-%C3%BAoo%C3%BA-fines-avast-czk-351m-gdpr-violations got a 403. Never had that before with the WayBackMachine. Then I tried to load it directly and got a "You are blocked!". Does the WBM not really make a full copy ? Not very Tor friendly !!!

More than three years have passed since the last release of ngIRCd – a free, portable and lightweight Internet Relay Chat server for small or private networks – and more than 130 individual patches have accumulated in the Git “master branch” in the meantime. Some are cosmetic, some bring new functionality, others improve the documentation or fix bugs. All in all, it’s more than time for the next “big” release of ngIRCd!

And here it is, ngIRCd release 27! 🎉 https://github.com/ngircd/ngircd/releases/tag/rel-27
