in Firefox shows me the exact same content as when I use Chromium. > A news site, I think the New Yorker, would only show the first two paragraphs of an article but in other browsers, would show the full article.Ĭan't reproduce. Didn't try a second browser yet but I'm not sure I am that persistent.Ĭan't reproduce, I was able to buy a CD Key ("Garfield Kart - Furious Racing PC") at, 16:51:52 BST using Firefox 100.0.2 and a debit card. > This morning, I couldn't buy a key off - tried two totally different methods, email addresses, credit cards. I attempted to reproduce the issue myself, but HomeDepot block visitors from my location. I checked for webcompat issues matching this description and couldn't find anyone reporting that adding items to the cart didn't work. The past couple months it has been working again, but there were a few months where I couldn't. > often won't let me add things to cart. Our only hope is Mozilla takes their head out of their arse and start working on their browser instead of faffing about and making small, meaningless changes every release, but I don't see that happening any time soon. The Web is such a complicated nightmare "protesting" won't change anything, and forking neither, because it's too bloody complex. Eich, if you're around here, please please fix syncing tabs in your browser, it's the only thing stopping me from switching honestly.ġ: I quite like Firefox, but it's in a dying spiral, and I'm starting to see broken sites. Impossible to do with Chromium.įirefox can send tabs to all my machines, and I use that feature multiple times daily, such as finding a cool article while I'm sitting on the couch and sending it to my desktop so I can read it later. I skip Chrome and Edge for privacy reasons, Brave have a crappy and buggy sync feature that I don't know what OSes it supports, but not my combination. I honestly want to ditch Firefox and try a Chromium browser for a minute, but I'm stuck on Firefox because it's the only one with a killer feature: send a tab to/from iOS and my Linux desktop. If you need privacy (and to actually hide your IP), then use Tor. If you don't have the patience to set up a VPS yourself, you can even use something like Outline ( ) which automates that (and it has a mobile client app as well). for torrenting, every torrent client under the sun supports a SOCKS5 proxy). It's an application level technology (e.g. If you need to proxy traffic and "hide" your IP, just use a flipping proxy. You can proxy traffic through a VPN, but the only scenario I can think of in which it makes sense is if you are an OSINT researcher and you need a safe system on which to conduct your research. There are several types of network topologies you can set up, when I was learning about this I found this article which is quite nice. The actual use of VPN technology is to create virtual networks that are private (hence the name). It's not just that they're suspect or unreliable. Annoying, you can only download the audit reports if you Login then click Reports in the menu (Granted I've not look that deeply at this) I actually find it kinda interesting that while they've all had audits regarding privacy on the server side, only ExpressVPN has had a security audit of server side components. And they run their own bug bounty program. ProtonVPN, audits of the no-log policy in April, and clients in 2020. Has no bug bounty, but they do still have a vulnerability disclosure program. Mullvad has been audited (Client security and Infrastructure (for privacy)) by Cure53 through 2020, and first was in 2018. ĮxpressVPN - Windows Client was just audited by F-Secure in March, and server side audits by Cure54, and PwC in 20 respectively. NordVPN had the clients audited by VerSprite last year, and their No-log policy audited by PwC in 20. I find Chrome's address bar has been way less reliable and much more frequently just gives me Google autocomplete suggestions - even when I know that I visited a URL recently that should match!įunnily, both ExpressVPN and NordVPN which you call out have been externally audited. That vague API I can never remember the parameters to? Just type "/query.json?" And I get all my previous requests as examples! The spreadsheet I made about user languages? "sheets lang". I vaguely recall an article I read months ago on CSS grid? I type "grid guide" and bam it's the first suggestion. It's usually only a few characters before it finds exactly what I want.Įg I type in "Ed"? It shows the URL to my "editions in solr" GitHub issues I've been working on recently. It's become my primary second brain for finding Google docs, or articles I've read, or GitHub issues. I can type just a snippet of a URL or a web page title and it'll instantly show me all matching URLs I've visited, whether on my desktop or on my phone. One unique Firefox feature I love that I don't see talked about often is how awesome Firefox's address bar suggestions are.
