• XUL Layout has been removed from Firefox

  The Palemoon browser [0] also still uses XUL, and is in many ways a continuation of XUL browsers (was originally forked from FF 29, updated with various components from FF 50+, and with many other tweaks). [0] https://palemoon.org. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• All computers are garbage!

  The Pale Moon browser https://palemoon.org/ strikes a pretty good balance, IMO. They forked it from Firefox 24 and focused development narrowly on fixing Firefox's massive backlog of bugs and keeping up with core web standards. Source: over 1 year ago

• Browser sync—what are the risks of turning it on?

  Or use a browser that unlike Chromezilla browsers just uses a local encryption key for sync that's your responsibility to not forget, so even if their sync server is hacked no one can read your synced data. Source: about 2 years ago

• Tampermonkey: Dev Mode will become mandatory for running userscripts in Chromium

  I would assume surf[0], I don't know if suckless has any other browser. [0]: https://surf.suckless.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Kera Desktop: open-source, cross-platform, web-based desktop environment

  This is a wonderful project! I've been thinking a lot about making such a unified desktop stack for a while now; web technology has matured to the point where I think it's feasible to build a complete environment a la Smalltalk/Symbolics but with a modern feature set. Obviously this has deficiencies but like it or not the web _is_ computing for the vast majority of people and exploring/pushing its limits of user... - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago
