Soderle, es ist so weit.
#Google #Chrome hat #uBlockOrigin endgültig gekillt.
Abgesehen davon, dass dieses Vorgehen den Browser bei mir ebenfalls killt, was ist jetzt die bevorzugte Lösung?
Außer FireFuchs noch ein anderer Browser?
Oder diesen DNS-Blocker auf #Raspberry? Wie hieß der nochmal?
(edit) Ergänzung:
Ich habe Vivaldi und Brave getestet. Die basieren auf Firefox und blocken die Werbung weg. Aber was, wenn FF die Blocker nicht mehr unterstützen würde?
A friend likes to watch TV/VIdeos on her Windows laptop, but using the speakers, not ear phones.
Now: Some films and series (especially on Netflix) are not loud enough to understand the dialogues properly.
She was desperate.
However: I quickly checked for browser plugins to boost volume and there are (for #Firefox for sure, but most certainly for #Chrome, too).
Worked perfectly, and now all her friends (wrongly) think, I am kind of a tech wizard.
Becoming "famous" made easy.

OpenAI is reportedly about to launch its own AI-powered web browser — a direct challenge to Google Chrome’s reign.
Unlike traditional browsers, this one’s expected to have ChatGPT at its core — handling bookings, forms, and even navigating the web on your behalf.
If it delivers, this could seriously disrupt Google’s ad empire and reshape how we use the internet.

Great news everybody
Instead of Google suctioning up all of your personal info, now people can eagerly rush to have all of their personal info suctioned up by an #enshittification manipulation hallucination #AI interface
Personally, I'm waiting for #Thiel's #Palantir #web #browser! Woo hoo! (/s)
Google and Microsoft Trusted Them. 2.3 Million Users Installed Them. They Were Malware.
A coordinated campaign of 18 malicious browser extensions infected 2.3 million users across Chrome and Edge. These extensions, including a color picker tool, appeared legitimate with verified badges and high install counts. The RedDirection campaign implemented sophisticated browser hijacking mechanisms, capturing users' browsing data and potentially redirecting them to malicious sites. The malware was introduced through version updates of previously clean extensions, exploiting the auto-update feature of browsers. The campaign demonstrates systemic failures in marketplace security, verification processes, and trust signals, turning productivity tools into surveillance malware. Users are advised to remove affected extensions and monitor their accounts for suspicious activity.

Denne gjelder fortsatt; det hadde vært fint om de store browserene hadde innebygget oppdaging av feeds med en dedikert knapp eller meny.
Litt på samme måte som Firefox nå kan oppdate OpenGraph-headere for forhåndsvisning av lenker.

Apropos RSS/Atom-feed, så bruker jeg https://netnewswire.com som gir en slik feed-ikon i Safari. Denne indikerer om websida har en eller flere feeds i HTML-headeren.
Når en klikker på denne så åpnes den i NetNewsWire.
F.eks. #Vivaldi har en innbygget feed-leser som indikerer at nettsida har feeds og man kan lese/abonnere på den i browseren, men hva bruker folk i #Chrome og eller #Firefox? Utvalget av verktøy virker litt hummer og kanari i Firefox' Add-ons og Chrome Nettmarked.

Der Vivaldi-Browser hat ein kleines E-Mail Programm dabei und auch einen RSS-Reader (abonierbare Nachrichten von Webseiten).
Beides funktioniert ausgesprochen gut und vor allem in Kombination mit dem Mail-Anbieter mailbox.org macht der Browser richtig Laune. Und da er Chrome/Chromium kompatibel ist, funktionieren auch die allermeisten Erweiterungen, wie etwa #ublocklight …
