Knusper, in I use Brave to test whether my websites work on Chromium browsers, but their scummy actions lately make me want to find a new Chromium browser to test with. What's the best Chromium based browser?

I tend to use Falkon, which is developed by the KDE community…

hperrin,

I don’t see a Mac build. Are they planning to support Mac?

Knusper,

Oh, I rather doubt it.

It is built on top of Qt, so I assume, theoretically, it wouldn’t be terribly difficult to do the port, but you need someone who regularly tests+fixes it under macOS. And well, it’s a non-commercial project, so you need someone who volunteers to do that…

hperrin,

The KDE team is awesome, and they already have Mac devs. So maybe if people show support for it, they’d do it. :)

Knusper,

Possible, yeah. Falkon was previously an independent project (QupZilla). I don’t know how much they’ve intermingled with the other KDE devs yet, but that’s certainly no insurmountable problem either.

Ours is Loretta cause that’s what she looks like. My mom named hers Mavis for similar reasons.

Kreacher because it alerts for no reason and doesn’t do a good job at the one thing it was made for.

I use Vivaldi because of it’s tab management.

I have it configured to put the tabs in a bar on the right side of the screen. That way you have full tab titles no matter how many you have open.

It’s also got a tiling window manager. So you can select two tabs and tell it to split screen them within the single window of Vivaldi. Or select 3, or 4, or whatever and put them in a grid. All sorts of options.

I’ve got big 4k monitors, so I’ve grouped up some pinned tabs to always be tiled (like my email and calendar)

It’s got lots of other nice tab features and just regular features, but those are the main selling ports for me personally.

MagneticFusion,

I love Vivaldi, if only it were not Chromium based. But even then, if Firefox were to ever die (assuming Vivaldi is still alive and well) I am switching to Vivaldi

KammicRelief,

Yess! Came here to recommend Vivaldi too. I switched from Brave for same reason as OP, and looked at a few options… Vivaldi won. It’s been a couple months and I haven’t looked back.

BEDE,

plus 1 for Vivaldi. No complaints here.

I hate quiche. She thought I love quiche and was so proud of herself every time she would make it. Never told her otherwise.

disconnectikacio, in Tech workers - what did your IT Security team do that made your life hell and had no practical benefit?

Very short screensaver timeouts, useless proxy, short timeouts from intranet pages, disabled browser extensions, to make impossible to automatize our very repetitive work, daily DB access requests for work, etc.

AstralWeekends,

Screensaver?

AstralWeekends, in Tech workers - what did your IT Security team do that made your life hell and had no practical benefit?

Made me write SQL updates that had to be run by someone in a different state with pretty much no knowledge of SQL.

My secret is that I know I’m actually the only real human, and everybody else are aliens posing as humans to study my behavior. That’s why I purposefully make random decisions and actions from time to time, to throw them off.

I still have to figure out if I’m the last human alive, if every remaining human is being studied like me, or if there is a real human society somewhere.

WeLoveCastingSpellz,

Woooo I am gonna lay my eggs in your stomach woooo 🛸

partial_accumen,

I suppose we should tell them now.

You’re not actual a “real human.” You’re an alien just like us, but we convinced you that you were human so we could study “human behavior”. One behavior we’ve identified is paranoia.

sjpwarren,

Who said they are paranoid?

Piecemakers3Dprints,
@Piecemakers3Dprints@lemmy.world avatar

By definition, it’s not paranoia if they’re actually after you.

afraid_of_zombies,

No it’s not. Paranoia refers to your emotions not your situation. Just because you are paranoid doesn’t mean you do not have enemies.

afraid_of_zombies,

Reminds me so much of a particular Philip K. Dick story. A solider’s tour in Korea is over and returning home he notices that everything is fake. Artificial sweetener, instant coffee, faux leather shoes, hair styles, etc. He gets the idea that the aliens took over the US and setup a few fake burbs for the soldiers returning home, to isolate them and eventually pick them off one by one.

AccidentalLemming,

That’s why I purposefully make random decisions and actions from time to time, to their them off.

It’s working… we’ve successfully tricked him into thinking he has free will.
