Ff extension management is unusable for 5 or more extensions.

Need extensions to prevent sites from blocking select, copy, paste. I want an extension manager extension that let's me quick toggle extensions but ff apis don't currently support this from what I understand.


Is the another non chromium browser that can handle more than 5 extensions?

Ff extension management is terrible which i find unusable in an age where I need extensions to prevent sites from removing usability features like select, copy, and paste.

I'm using brave but I don't fully understand how it's related to chromium and if it's a true fork that they are going to be able to maintain independently. I have many many extensions in brave and an extension manager that let's me toggle them right from a drop down. Any suggestions?


This is about gmail, not chromium, but nevertheless: If you’re not willing to adapt your workflow to something other than chromium, maybe you don’t value your privacy as much as you think you do.


Correct I value basic usability (the ability to use many plug-ins in this case) over privacy. This is why I don't use proton, cause I can't actually get anything done with it.


In that case, I'd urge you to tone down your negative criticism on Firefox.

You've already decided that you are not willing to use it over issues you have with it: that choice is fine. Telling others in relevant discussions why you made that choise is, too.

No-one asked you why you chose not to use Firefox in a thread about Gmail. Yet you managed to inject your FUD here nonetheless: Firefox can handle 5+ addons just fine. But now some random passersby might get the impression that Firefox is a burning dumpsterfire based on random negative critiques that aren't even in the right place nor true at all. That helps exactly no-one.


Srsly, 12$.


Sorry for us being skeptical of 140 character claims...

I don't see how that url means Google is doing this, when none of us have been able to verify. There could be 100 different things touching your email doing this.

Pretty sure most hn wants this to be true as a reason to sharpen pitchforks.


Exactly and the OP has a strong past of making false and misleading claims before.


Because ff extension management is utter useless garbage and there are many missing but useful extensions.


Just like law enforcement has always done, it uses the tools at its disposal. There are many mechanisms that require elevation and precedence already like a subpoena. Further more pgp is already in the wild, this bill will just force liability over towards the platforms and make them open up.

A fundamental requirement of a free society is encrypted communication, always has been. Im amazed given how the police state has grown since 9/11 that there are 'poor police' arguments et all. Government always grows in scope. The secret fica courts that were intended for terrorism only ended up being 50% domestic drug cases.


The distinction between the parties is little more than an illusion.


There are soooo many regulations that add barriers to mobility in Germany. The weird employment recommendation coded letter, and the fact that you literally cannot fire anyone.


Top panels all have these "features" honey.. You can get a shit panel without ads or smarts...


"Top" seems pretty arbitrary it seems. Reminds me of people who call iPhone a Top phone despite lacking features and quality.

Price != performance


Can't get new tvs with normal remotes


Without numbers on?

Could replace the remote with a Old Person Remote perhaps.

Just looked for a random tv, it has a normal remote to me https://ao.com/product/vel50fo01uk-veltech-tv-black-66496-10... scroll right on the photos
