FYI, the repo is not DMCAd yet, only the download URL which moved to gitflic.

Make sure jnn-pa.googleapis.com isn't blocked anywhere in your network. It may perhaps be blocked in a filter list you have activated in uBO, DNS, VPN, Firewall, anti-virus, Firefox enhanced tracking protection, etc.

&& flatpak update

You can also include && flatpak uninstall --unused in your alias to clean up more space.

Appending (intext:“modlog” & “instances” & “docs” & “code” & “join lemmy”) to your search query will search most instances. Works with Google, Startpage, SearXNG afaik.

celluloid, pix, hexchat, hypnotix, rhythmbox, LibreOffice

Those applications uninstalled just fine without any dependency issues last time I tried Mint.

If you're unsure, make a snapshot of your current VM state (if your VM software supports it). Then just uninstall the junk you don't need until Mint breaks. Restore snapshot, test some more, and so on. Those on real hardware should use Timeshift to create snapshots.

Tip: Run sudo apt autoremove package in the terminal so you can see which dependencies that are removed.

You shouldn't have to install any flatpak dependency manually. Flatpak should handle it for you automatically when you install your programs. (In most cases.)

Just Firefox/Librewolf with uBlock Origin is enough. The more extensions you add, the larger the attack surface and chance of site breakage. A common mistake many do is to add multiple blockers on top of uBO which will decrease uBO's ability to defuse various anti-adblocks. This also includes addons like Privacy Badger, Ghostery, DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials, etc. uBO have good enough privacy protection enabled by default. If you want more, enable some other privacy filter lists. And if you know what you're doing, enable hard mode by blocking all 3rd party requests and JavaScript.

If you want to feel more secure when adding more extensions to your browser, then only use Firefox addons that are recommended by Mozilla. Those extensions have gone through a review process to make sure they don't contain anything malicious.

If you're like me and don't care about recommendations and being able to comment, then use Freetube with sponsorblock enabled.

The performance issues are because of Adblock and Adblock Plus: https://nitter.net/gorhill/status/1746263759495077919#m

It affects more sites than just YouTube.

Only if there would be one casting a shadow of spinning blades on my face every day. Otherwise I don't mind them.

Adblockers will still be allowed, they will just be crippled a lot. It will probably be the same as the adblocking situation on Safari.

If any 3rd party browser vendor wants to maintain a Chromium fork with Manifest V2, they can do so, but with the risk of code maintenance hell. They would also need an extension store for Manifest V2 extensions. Otherwise V2 extensions needs to be installed manually.

Browser vendors can also create their own separate ad blockers that aren't affected by the changes. For example Brave Shields, Vivaldi adblock, Opera adblock, etc.

By doing that you're wasting bandwidth on all the CDNs that hosts ALL your filter lists. Updating the Quick fixes list should be enough. (Which updates every 5 hours automatically on uBO 1.54).

How to manually update Quick Fixes (Manual updates push back automatic updates.)

  • Click 🛡️ uBO's icon
  • the ⚙ Dashboard button
  • the Filter lists pane
  • the 🕘 clock icon next to the uBlock filters – Quick fixes list
  • the 🔃 Update now button.

If you want to remove parameters from urls you can use the removeparam filter in uBlock Origin. Documentation: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Static-filter-syntax#removeparam

For example: /?igshid=$removeparam=igshid,domain=instagram.com

For the best performance it's recommended to make sure the parameter is included in the filter as seen above with /?igshid, and with the domain it originated from.

Filters for the examples in OPs post:

/?igshid=$removeparam=igshid,domain=instagram.com
?is_from_webapp$removeparam=is_from_webapp,domain=tiktok.com
&t=$removeparam=/^amp;/,domain=x.com

There's also a filter that removes a lot of known params: https://github.com/DandelionSprout/adfilt/blob/master/LegitimateURLShortener.txt

 

This is a style I primarily made for myself, but why not share it. It's inspired by some of the old subreddit styles and the old youtube design.

  • Should work with litely and darkly plus compact variants.
  • Uses rounded thumbnails to external links.
  • Uses square thumbnails to internal images.
  • Colored proprietary social media thumbs with their brand colors. (So you don't accidentally click on a youtube link for example).

There still are some things I have to fix in the dark theme, like buttons and card headers for example.

 

I'm currently using const prefersDarkTheme = window.matchMedia('(prefers-color-scheme: dark)').matches; but it doesn't take into consideration users that use a light system with a dark website.

EDIT: Solved with the following:

const element = document.getElementById("app");
const themeVariant = element.getAttribute("data-bs-theme");
if (themeVariant === "light") {
    var primaryBackground = "#f0f0f0";
} else {
    var primaryBackground = "#121317";
}
 

I do like myself a good Japanese game every once in a while, but right now I'm looking for other PS1 games made outside of Japan that are still very fun to play.
