Auto cookie delete isn’t really necessary since total cookie protection.

I mostly agree with @shadejinx. I would add that when editing the same note on two separate devices syncthing will at least fail kind of gracefully in that you’ll whatever.md will still be there but you’ll see an additional whatever-conflict-hash.md along side it so you can easily fix it up. Synctrayzor for windows will give you a nice notification and UI with which to resolve.

Nextcloud is great but it’s a real behemoth. Loads of stuff you don’t need.

IDK what you mean exactly but I sync between computers and devices just fine.

I think it’s a combination of things, a basic approach of removing the query string (after the question mark) with exceptions for different sites that might need some of the query string.

Generally a link tells a browser where to find something on the Web, but you can stuff it with additional information so that when a server receives a request for that something, it will know how the browser got that link.

This feature strip’s out that additional information.

Well yeah but building in privacy-enhancing features like this is a great strategy for FF.

It doesn’t.

If you think about it though, you’ve already visited that link so why clean it now.

What do you mean?

Oh. Ok. Should I undo it then?

The vast majority of people would have no clue what to download.

IDK how else it could work.

Anyone who understands what a private window actually does, would expect it to work this way.

Nah, what if you drag a tab from one window to another.

I think they pretty much are?

Out of curiosity, can I ask what it was that made mastodon click?

I had two or three goes before realising that choosing the right instance can give you an engaging “local” feed. That seems dramatically less important on lemmy though.

Personally… I wouldn’t switch to something chrome based but you could take a look at bromite or ungoogled.

I doubt FF forks are going to solve the problem.

What’s it doing all day? Does closing tabs make any difference?

No, although there’s probably a culture or convention around that.

Originally the idea was that it’s a format which can contain fonts and other things so it will be rendered the same way on different devices even if those devices don’t have those fonts installed. The only reason it’s not commonly editable that I’m aware of is that it’s a fairly arcane proprietary spec.

Now we have the openspec odt which can embed all the things, so pdf editing just doesn’t really seem to have any support.

The established conventions around pdfs do kind of amaze me. Like contracts get emailed for printing & signing all the time. In many cases it would be trivial to edit the pdf and return your edited copy which the author is unlikely to ever read.

Acrobat Reader is actually great for filling out forms.

Even if the “pdf” is actually just a potato quality photo of what was at some time a form, you can still fill it out in Acrobat Reader.

Generally in windows I prefer sumatra pdf as a reader, but I keep acrobat around for this purpose.

think of it as though pdf is the container - it can contain all sorts of different data. I’d say you got real lucky being able to edit one with Writer without issues.

Shame about the name. Imagine volunteering loads of hours for a cool project and then calling it floorp. Maybe it means something cool in Japanese.

I’ve heard something similar but wonder how true that is.

This fork kinda disproves it to some extent?

I’ve never had anything to do with code for native apps, but it just seems odd. Why would the rendering engine be tightly coupled with the window decorations? If they can be changed between versions I imagine they can be changed between forks?

Like I said, I’m no authority, just curious about this aspect.

Yeah this. Really stoked about this project, looks really great, I wish them all the users, just that I’m not going to use it.
