I am not sure how embedded media inside HTTPS websites use HTTP. But using HTTPS exclusively is very possible today, nearly no websites not supporting it. So I see no reason here.
But this is just an example and that is also GUI configurable.
I see that Safari and different Browsers are an issue, but do you need OS info for that? Especially fine grained info?
I mentioned Brave because they integrated something that is not ads, but I think it is ads anyways? So not using the browser, but pro anything with direct payment
Would be important to add where you live.
I never heard of 3rd party shipping insurance companies.
Really interesting tips but I have some questions.
Do you use paid "dont sell under minimum price" blocks?
Do you use paid pushing of articles to the top? Or do you reinsert it again? Is deleting and reinserting a bad thing?
Did you sell products massively under the wanted price with your strategy?
I mean the HTTPS-only toggle. It still allows HTTP but after a warning. HTTP sites still work, so this should be opt-out.
Safari only works on 2/3 Platforms, so I dont think a UA containing the OS, let alone a detailed "Lubuntu" etc. detail
I heard about Peter Thiel I think in very different contexts? I wouldnt support Brave at all, I use a mix or hardened Firefox, Mull and Vanadium.
What distro?
On Fedora Atomic Desktops:
If you deleted /etc then you can copy it from /usr/etc
Your fstab, shadow, crypttab, gpasswd and quite some other files are gone though, which is problematic.
Yes, that was it
There is a big variety of browsers there, and as I said, the UA is simply one of the many tracking points.
Websites often dont support users, they live off ads because we didnt find any internet model that can live without ads, which are a horrible concept.
I was in a supermarket today where card payment was broken. There was a huge sign in the middle of the entrance about that, but a lot of people still didnt read it and had to bring back their groceries.
I think this is in part due to ads. Ads train us to not concentrate, zoom out and be passive. Otherwise, looking at all that manipulative garbage would make us insane.
So I am curious to why Websites would need to support users. Normal web standards work the same. There is a trend towards not supporting Firefox or maybe platforms with worse DRM, like Linux (where you can screencast any DRM browser anyways). So I think Netflix uses the Linux user agent to limit you to 1080p (as a laptop user and pirate I have no idea how this is an issue though)
You are lucky here with your generic UA. maybe this is also outdated, but I read this was a thing at least on some distro packaged Firefoxes.
Also that the search engines preconfigured would always get the info about what OS you are using.
Yes these things may not be critical, and Firefox does a ton of awesome things like cookie isolation and containers, to limit the creepy stuff.
But
- having HTTPS off by default
- being on "default" privacy level
- keeping all cookies
Is simply not okay. HTTP is still possible, I only know a single popup-ads-riddled site that doesnt work with Firefoxes most private setting. And deleting all cookies and making exceptions work kinda fine.
There was a button to save cookies for a site, but it is gone? No idea why.
Improving good private UX helps. Being too shy to implement it harms its reputation I think.
I also like Brave with their model for monetization via crypto. I would be happy to tip a few cents for every website click, but micro transactions just dont really work.
But as a sensitive person, I will absolutely always block every ad possible, as ads are horrible.
You could mirror your android phone using scrcpy but I never used it.
There is a Qt version for it on Linux
Waydroid has no camera passthrough
BlissOS is a continued version of Androidx86
They are useful to differentiate mobile from PC devices. That is not needed as many Websites are dynamic, but useful for some.
As all browsers also support the common web standards, it is also not necessary for determining supported features or something.
The only other use I find is having download links targeting the platform, but especially on Linux that is not really useful
RethinkDNS is unique and basically Android magic.
It combines the possibility for Orbot, multiple Wireguard VPNs with different apps and killswitch, firewall rules (like blocking mobile network or HTTP traffic)
Could you list what exactly is necessary to have a good user experience?
It adds one factor for Fingerprinting that is simply not needed
Stop harrassing me please. Just because you are fine with something, you cant say anyone else is talking shit.
Firefox is really modular, and that makes it different from the other browers.
A lot of these are privacy invasive. Senseful telemitry is fine, but I dont see how they do that.
If you dont care about Ad search engines, Studies, Pocket, Google Safebrowsing, search suggestions, a start page with ads, weak privacy settings, all cookies saved forever, no adblocking, a unique canvas fingerprint, a user agent containing your Linux Distro,...
I went through the arkenfox user.js and literally all of it minus 20 or so settings just make sense. The rest are kinda overkill, but really, Firefox is horrible out of the box.
It is really modular luckily

KDEs baloo might suit that.
- runs in background
- indexes
- index probably kept?
- can exclude directories
I dont know what tool uses Baloo to search, kfind doesnt.
Librewolf is just a usable Firefox
Firefox honestly got many really good editing features, to fulfill the needs of many people.
Stuff that PDFArranger and maybe Okular do is missing.
