  • Yeah it was good for a while. But now a few important websites for me just don’t work anymore, like a page for paying my loan. It only worked in chromium browsers. I know that chromium will work everywhere because they’re the first to implement the newest standards and are the most supported by developers due to it having a huge market share. I can’t rely on knowing firefox will work anymore. I’ve lost faith in it as a product.

    Yes they are. They are agreed upon standards set for future development from a host of different companies. Chrome is just always the first to implement them. It’s not that firefox will never have them, they just develop slow.

    And I won’t switch from brave bc it’s the one browser that just works and has good adblock

    The only problem is it isn’t based on Chromium tho. That just doesn’t suffice anymore.

    I was an avid Firefox user for years and librewolf user for a year after that, but unfortunately, FF hasn’t been able to keep up in terms of web standards.

    More and more I kept having pages just not work. I ended up having to install a backup Chromium-based browser bc critical websites like my banking and loan sites only worked on Chromium-based browsers. Eventually, I caved. If I had to have a second,Chromium-based browser anyway, I might as well just use that for everything.

    I wanted to not use Chromium, but FF has lost the war. Chromium runs the show now. No more fighting back. Google owns the internet.

    So now I’m on Brave, and honestly it’s way better than Librewolf these days. I would recommend any librewolf user switch over to that.



  • Should be just trash not trash-rm, but it’s like the other person said, when you go to rm, it moves it to trash now, instead of deleting, since usually I don’t want to truly delete things (i.e., I don’t raw delete when using a GUI, so I’m bringing that behavior to CLI as well)

    You can ofc still use the old rm and do full deletion. Either sudo rm (unless root also has rm aliased) or /bin/rm

    But also you can do rm then trash-empty for the same behavior.

    I’m actually trying a new alias alias del=/bin/rm so that I have a quick way to get the old behavior.
