Is switching out from chrome to brave easy? Doesn it maintain all my settings and extension settings? I have a really autistically customized extension setup.

If you care just go to ungoogled chromium instead.

I've been testing Vivaldi for the past few weeks. It's very snappy and I like the built-in features, but it still uses the same amount of RAM as Chrome, if not more. Since it's running on Chromium, that's not really surprising.

can you open tabs in the background by now? I remember that feature missing just a few years back and when looking into it only found constant screeching and "not like opera reee" whenever someone mentioned it on the forums, which completely turned me off from it.

also, chromium still has no support for bookmark tags (I know there are extensions for it, but when firefox has it ootb for years it's no excuse).

You mean like with the right-click menu? Yes, you can.

My biggest issue with Vivaldi so far is that when I middle click on a link, it opens in a background tab instead of automatically switching to the new tab. I'm sure it's just a configuration issue, but I can't figure out where to change that (if it's at all possible).
 
ESR the self styled libertarian who shits on socialism at every opportunity has started e-begging.

I’ve finally gotten validated by SubscribeStar, which means I can get payouts through it, which means those of you who want nothing to do with Patreon can contribute through it: https://www.subscribestar.com/esr

If you’re not contributing, and you’re a regular here, please chip in. While I’ve had some research grants in the past, right now nobody is subsidizing the infrastructure work I do and I’m burning my savings.

There’s NTPsec, of course – secure time synchronization is critical to the Internet. There are the 40 or so other projects I maintain. Recently I’m working on improving the tools ecosystem for the Go language, because to reduce defect rates we have got to lift infrastructure like NTPsec out of C and Go looks like the most plausible path. Right now I’m modifying Flex so it can be be retargetable to emit Go (and other languages); I expect to do Go support for Bison next.

I’m not the only person deserving of your support – I’ve founded the Loadsharers network for people who want to help with the more general infrastructure-support problem – but if you’re a regular on this blog I hope I’m personally relatively high on your priority list. I’m not utterly broke yet, but the prospect is looming over me and my house needs a new roof.

Even $10 a month is helpful if enough of you match it. For $20 a month you get to be credited as a supporter when I ship a release of one of my personal projects. From $50 a month I can buy my long-suffering wife a nice dinner and afford an occasional trip to the shooting range.

I live a simple life, trying to be of service to my civilization. Please help that continue.

As usual with ESR, he's not making a terribly unreasonable point, he just can't help the autism leaking out at the end. "Free stuff plox for my wife and hobbies" doesn't seem very libertarianish to me.

If you enable gestures you should be able to open new tabs by right clicking and dragging down

Yeah though, there doesn't seem to be a setting to change middle click behavior, I guess you could suggest it to them, I can't imagine it'd be that difficult of an addition

Honestly, at this point, specialized browsers have made choosing a primary browser redundant, since Chrome, Tor Browser, Firefox, and Vivaldi all have their cons and pros and should be utilized on their strength instead of a swiss army tool.


I'm not entire sure if this fits the bill, found it randomly by looking after "controversies" of suckless.org:

Oh, that guy. A YouTuber who makes a lot of videos about Linux and other FOSS and usually puts meme characters into his thumbnails. I've come across his videos once or twice and they've been pretty helpful. I guess the fact that he recognizes Pepe and Hide the Pain Harold exist make him a literal nazi though.

lol that subreddit, though.

Personally I think Luke is a lolcow, but he's somewhat good at hiding his powerlevel, so he flys by.

That subreddit is a gold mine (especially that thread).
