I’ve been using Consent-O-Matic which works pretty well but built into the browser? Wow.

    @Atemu This is why, for me, Firefox is unreplaceable on Android. Just the fact that’s not Chromium + also supports extensions is what makes it superior.
    I wish that it’ll come pre-installed in phones instead of Chrome, so more people can give it a try. But is Android and Google would never allow that.

        The question is, did they get your comment? You didn’t @ them. Does Mastodon know how to interpret and exchange replies from Lemmy if it doesn’t use @ tagging?

          @deweydecibel @Sekoia Yes, I got your reply without @ me. ActivityPub works in mysterious ways.
          For example: I can create new posts on Lemmy/Kbin, but those posts can be only text. I still haven’t figured out how to post images.

      Too bad the sandboxing is not working. I use Vanadium right now but Firefox on desktop. I would switch instantly if they beefed up security.

    Firefox bringing an actual useful feature? Not removing one? Not bringing in more telemetry and reporting? Not doing more restrictions? Not copying Chrome?

    Am I dead?

    It’s so unfortunate that Firefox on Android, for some reason, never worked well with password managers (as I understand it, it doesn’t support the APIs that Android has for them). Sometimes it’ll trigger the manager, more often, it won’t. Infuriating and a deal breaker for me.

    I’ll give it another go, maybe this has been improved recently.

    Edit gave it another crack, gosh, it actually works now!

      I use the firefox password manager personally. Not sure if that makes me an idiot or not but it works well and I trust mozilla.

        It doesn’t make you an idiot. It is a free service that offers every service a premium password manager does. The real idiots are the people paying mothly for the same thing…

      Found out about this literally three days ago and it has been such a blessing. I am a little unsure though with regards to what settings are applied from blocking the banners. I would assume it should enforce a minimal amount of cookies due to the lack of acceptance.

        Unless they have US specific behavior. The US doesn’t even require a notice, some devs just included it because they were too lazy to add geolocation.

          Or because geolocation can be flaky. I’d assume management would rather comply with the GDPR requirements than risk ever getting into a lawsuit because they relied on IP geolocation.
