@elzen @gee Oh peut-être pas, elle est trop centré sur Firefox comparé au meme originel. Et puis j'aime bien l'unité qu'a Framameme avec que les dessin de Gee pour le moment. Je voudrai pas casser cette unité. Mais par contre, je suis curieux du code de Framameme, pour voir si il y aurait moyen de l'utiliser pour redialoguer ou faire de la trad de BD courte comme les miniFantasyTheatre. C'est canon comme petit logiciel en ligne tout ça.

@[email protected] @[email protected] Les premiers paragraphes "Histoire" de https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/LibreOffice te donneront une version bien plus détaillé que ce que j'avais en tête pour te répondre. 😆
C'était un sacré truc !

@[email protected] Merci. Sur mobile jusque là c'était Firefox sur un Android dégooglisé... enfin au mieu possible car c'est quasi impossible de faire un 100%.
Mais là je teste la semaine prochaine https://iode.tech/ , c'est du https://lineageos.org/ mélangé avec de la revente de matos reconditionné. Je donnerai des news sur le blog si ça fait bien le taf, surtout si au niveau photo/video ça arrive à suivre. ☺️

@[email protected] Oui 😁 Mais faudrait commencer cette fondation avec un sacré budget pour avoir déjà une grosse poignée de dev à plein temps dessus.
Je verrai bien la Wikipedia fondation dessus. Il me semble que leur trésorerie et leur moyen technique et leur familiarité avec le publique ferait que si ils entraient dans ce game, ça ferait un acteur de poids très rapidement.

@[email protected] For Waterfox, I read their webpage, and the Wikipedia page only. The chapter about vulnerabilities was enough for me to not get motivated to explore more. Also a business model based on search result. Meh. But cool name.

@bigTanuki :blobcatheart: Thank you, but don't worry, I'm making many errors too, and I'll keep doing them as I often experiment with many new things.
I just hope I'll get comments helping me if I go accidentally on questionable territories and I'll have the brightness of mind to study them and readjust.

@[email protected] Totalement! C'est même pour ça que dans ma métaphore, je voulais vraiment montrer que le petit renard reste un renard , tant bien même recouvert de cendre. Ca ressemble donc plutôt a une "community curated edition" de Firefox, mais je crois que c'est ce que je cherche là. Je commence à me méfier de Mozilla. Ils dérapent trop souvent ces derniers temps, et ça c'est que la partie publique...

@technikhil @louischance Yes, Zen Browser was on my list when I tested, beautiful interface and screenshot on their website.
I'm wondering if those forks are actually viable if Firefox dies one day...
Louis: yes, this THE central real question about all these forks. I personally don't think any forks around could survive that.

@[email protected] That's a good solution! My initiation to LibreWolf made me aware of many settings I never thought existing in Firefox (because suddenly all were turned on by default). It was really educative, and I'll probably benefit a lot of it if I'm going back to Firefox.

@[email protected] "[...] not going to sell with the Plebs"
😆 I don't think LibreWolf has view for market share and plebs. As far as I know it's a community initiative, not a company. Yes, it require time to install and setup, and understand the implication of what security and privacy setting one decide to lower. But I'm happy I took this time, I feel I understand even more how the web of 2025 is broken and how web browser interacts with it to try to ease the experience.

@[email protected] That's exactly where I found it educative to have to be personally facing this dilemma and having to choose.
Here I decided to allow fingerprinting, because mainly I really like when a blog or website switch to dark mode automatically. Without that, all website were in light theme, and it felt very difficult to me to browse the web like that now...

@[email protected] But Vivaldi is not free/libre and open source software... This is even not an option on my operating system as it is really impossible to know what Vivaldi dev are doing with your data.

@praveen @darkbeth Thank you Elizabeth.
LibreWolf is just a layer of community reviewing in case Mozilla pushes something bad to their audience. My metaphor about the layer of ash on top of a fox works for this reason.
I also worry for the future of Firefox. I hope their executives will see larger community forming around forks, and it will make them find back their focus to privacy, and security. I'll be back to Firefox if they do that.

@[email protected] Thanks! Oh yes it's not easy to find the time and do a change and walk the path of frustration of changing habit and studying settings.
Thanks for the video, I'm already subscribed to this animator artist, James Lee.
He recently announced moving to GNU/Linux. It's not the best period to do this for artists, with Wayland, all container war etc...I don't remember I saw an update of them about how they succeed to make it. Certainly hard time ^ ^ I hope he found my blog post about it.

@[email protected] Haha, I typed in a search engine for "furryfox" before realizing it was your way of naming Firefox. 😆
Catchy name.
Yes, I'll keep my Firefox too in background. Right now mainly to compare when I have an issue with LibreWolf, and also to test my blog and peppercarrot website. 😉

@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] I'm not sure how official the account you linked here is, the branding feels off and it's not really noted in the bio this is their official new account.
Before December, Mozilla had their instance, and decided to remove it ( src. https://techcrunch.com/2024/09/17/mozilla-exits-the-fediverse-and-will-shutter-its-mastodon-server-in-december/ )
Proton also really manage their PR like rotten potatoes imo ( https://theintercept.com/2025/01/28/proton-mail-andy-yen-trump-republicans/ )
... both company also abuse marketing bs wording and praise AI. Not surprising they are criticized here.

@[email protected] Well, I visited their webpage and read their Wikipedia. But only checking they are still active on X was a red flag to me so far to get interested in.

@[email protected] @nightrose @europeanOSacademy @[email protected] Congratulations! 👍

@marsik Wow! That's really cool and thank you for the info and sharing your code under GPL.
I tried to search Github prior making my article, but with the keyword ACK05 ; I see you use ACT05, do you think it is a slightly different device?
I'll test and note to update my article and include your user space remapping software. 👍

@[email protected] Oh yes, I have this one https://www.davidrevoy.com/article989/how-to-customise-a-usb-numeric-keypad-under-gnulinux , and also a 8bit do zero gamepad (mini).
But I just saw this Xppen ACK05 was now the default with all newer XpPen tablet and started to think it should probably get a better support. A fun rabbit hole 🐰
