I think you meant uBlock Origin? Also, if you use Firefox on Android, it does support extensions so you can use uBlock Origin too.

The entire Fiasco is mostly US only. Rest of the World have different apps that dominate in individual regions like WhatsApp, WeChat, Viber etc.

From 2018, I have been using fake emails for signup on websites that I am sure I wouldn't be using again.

In rare occasion that I do keep using the website, I change it to one of my 'useful' mails. This has kept so much spam at bay for me.

I remember seeing a GitHub Issue regarding this year or two ago. IDK what happened after that since they moved to BugZilla.

~~If you know the BugZilla Link to the issue, then please do share with me, so that I can subscribe to it. I tried looking for it but maybe I wasn't framing it right? This type of issue should not even exist at this point tbh.~~

Nice to see FF doing the work and opening doors to so many extensions. The few things I have encountered on FF that are still a major PITA for me:

Sometimes tabs gets corrupted in sense that they just wont load any data and show data of the tab that was shown previously. navigating to other domain and stuff wont work. (Encountered it in Private mode)
Downloads may sometimes stop in middle.
I feel the app consumes more battery

I would have preferred Hot Chips.

I'm amazed that Android doesn't have a built in way to connect to a network drive like iOS/iPadOS has in c/android@lemdro.id

MiXplorer, Folder Sync Pro and more

My PDF reader REALLY HAD to add a permanent "AI assistant" button that floats on every single file i open in c/mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world

Yup. Monkrus is the best place

I would also recommend to use CCStopper and use the Add to Hosts option to further block out any attempts to check for genuine.
