huh... couldn't you already get those through gstreamer or vaapi?

i know i've wanted something like this for a while. i really didn't want to have to figure out how to get the existing keyman keyboard layout to work on linux, because fcitx works fine for all my other input needs, and i already knew how fcitx worked as i made an addon to get on-screen keyboards to work with it a while back...

as i know not many people would dare venture in the world of fcitx addons, due to the quite horrendous state the documentation is in... so if i wasn't gonna do it, likely no-one else was, so i did it! and shared it with everyone, because the worse that could happen is that someone helps me make it better!

i have yet to see a single anti-adblock pop-up on youtube lmao

This is why they're losing advertisers left right and center.

ftfy

sfc /scannow

mac is bsd in the same way android is linux. while technically true, they both diverged a lot from their base and most functions are now provided by closed-source software...

how is that not anti-competitive behaviour?

wait, isn't undo C-/?

i'm not saying that you should use a VM if everything on your PC requires windows... only if one specific app you sometimes need doesn't work on linux!

as someone studying foreign languages for example, i know that if i want to do translation, i'll have to use windows for some specific proprietary cat software. but i don't spend my whole time in a cat software! i would also need to work with email, and some projects would require me to use a browser-based tao software, and in those cases, i'd much prefer being on linux to use things like a better japanese input, tiling window management if on a laptop, and generally, not having to deal with advertisments!

oh my god, this looks like the note app i've wanted for so long on linux!!

it's still missing some text formatting features imo, but maybe i could hack those in a submit a patch… definitely keeping on my radar! thank you!

they're talking about a VM, not wine. if you have a powerful enough computer to spare some resources, and don't have a graphically-intensive application, a VM is probably a good choice if you like/need linux for most of your workflow!

my list of cool features:

Gradually rolling out in Fx119, Firefox now allows you to edit PDFs by adding images and alt text, in addition to text and drawings.

If you're migrating your data from Chrome, Firefox now offers the ability to import some of your extensions as well.

As part of Total Cookie Protection, Firefox now supports the partitioning of Blob URLs, this mitigates a potential tracking vector that third-party agents could use to track an individual.

The visibility of fonts to websites has been restricted to system fonts and language pack fonts in Enhanced Tracking Protection strict mode to mitigate font fingerprinting.

Encrypted Client Hello (ECH) is now available to Firefox users, delivering a more private browsing experience. ECH extends the encryption used in TLS connections to cover more of the handshake and better protect sensitive fields.

Firefox is now available in the Santali (sat) language.

Several enhancements have been made to the Inactive CSS styles feature. This feature assists in identifying CSS properties that have no effect on an element. Pseudo-elements such as ::first-letter, ::cue, and ::placeholder are now fully supported.

The JSON viewer is particularly useful for debugging REST APIs, as it displays formatted JSON responses. Now, if the JSON is invalid or broken, it automatically switches to a raw data view, improving the user experience.

Grouping of items in an array (and iterables) is now easier by using the methods Object.groupBy or Map.groupBy.

honestly, from a business point of view, this makes some sense, but yeah, a bit out-of-touch with the community

if it's actually true that is!

oh. my. god. tysm- this is awesome!!!

welp, i'll bookmark this. if i have some time in the future, i'll look into porting it to recent gnome! thank you~!

seems like it's made for X11… forgot to mention i'm using wayland :c

though brave has 2 issues you can't turn off:

• it's chromium-based, and strenghtens the browser engine monopoly
• the company behind it seems quite shady, and afaik the ceo/leader/founder/... is homophobic

using squeekboard from gnome's phosh project!

i switched my desktop to wayland a few months ago due to weird performance issues in some 3D applications

it went mostly flawlessly, i haven't had much if any issues in terms of app support, as long as your wayland compositor supports xwayland, everything should work pretty great!
the application ecosystem isn't as widely developped though, so you may run into issues if you try to use standalone window managers/compositors like sway, hyperland, etc… but besides that, everything's been great for me!
