  • Looking for a Free All in One Messenger app
    I’m using Biscuit, perhaps worth a look. Source: over 1 year ago
  • connect to server on local network using ip address
    I tried to create a new service to access my router config but seems like Ferdi (i tried also with biscuit later, same result) doesn't works with regular ip addresses like 192.168.1.1. Beside my router, I have a couple of web services running in a box on my LAN, I'd love to have a drawer with those services that I access only from time to time. Is there any reason why this pages that I can browse in any... Source: over 1 year ago
  • Arc browser interview
    What's so special with Arc browser? We already have a lot of web app browsers like: Sidekick, Ferdi(um), Franz, Station, Biscuit, etc. And they are cross-platform unlike Arc. There is a lot of marketing buzz, but really having vertical tabs and including notepad in a browser is so revolutionary? You can do all of this with Firefox add-ons. Source: over 1 year ago
  • [Summary] Best alternatives now that Ferdi is gone r/getferdi
    Biscuit - Only free, but completely proprietary and looks a little unpolished. Didn't pass my "smell test." If I'm going to trust an app with something as sensitive as my email login credentials, then I want to know exactly how they make their money, or I want it to be completely open source.

  • Web Environment Integrity API
    Oh by "Web Environment" you mean "my machine" lol! I already got caught by this - a https://github.com/nativefier/nativefier app wrapping Youtube Music doesn't work, because Google detects somehow that you are not using a trusted browser and refuses to serve. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago
  • What is the most efficient way to run PWA (Progressive Web Apps), there are many browsers that do it (Chrome, Chromium, Vivaldi, Brave, Edge), which one will be the lightest and less resource usage in a Debian or Fedora? Are there other options apart from the browsers?
    AFAIK there's only nativefier and peppermintos' ice. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Create clean web apps for macOS
    Install Nativefier from Terminal using the command npm install -g nativefier. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Can I download Youtube (WebAPP) with Firefox? Or do I need Google Chrome/Chromium?
    It's still not quite the same as Chromium webapps, which are just isolated windows in the same core process -- FFPWA spins up entire other instances of Firefox -- and in effect operates more like Nativefier (with Firefox instead of Electron/Chromium). Source: about 1 year ago
  • Will there ever be a proper Windows app?
