Solar flares and even the occasional random neutron particle hitting your equipment can cause some weird issues. If its just a one time occurrence and it doesn’t happen again, I wouldn’t worry too much about it.

Talking to Mozilla is work, but you can also keep talking to me as well.

Ive chosen the route of using Tor Browser or Mullvad Browser instead. They are fantastic browsers that probably have the best web browser fingerprint protection available, next to Vanadium Browser.

No, but somebody has to try.

Not once did I say I want people to stop discussing this.

You don’t need authority if its your own code, technically. Just commit and build.

If you’re wanting it as the default for everyone who uses that browser, Lemmy is not the place to request it. Hit up Mozilla, ask them to change it, or change it yourself and ask them to review your pull request. They authorize and approve from outside contributors quite often, so don’t sell yourself short.

But also, yes, i love the cliche because people just moan on lemmy about things instead of actively addressing the issue with the appropriate people on the appropriate mediums.

Airing your grievances out here is fun though. I get it. but asking the people upset about it to do some work is also fun.

Submit that pull request, my dude

Its been a known issue for a while, yes.

No. There are 30+ there.

Search “fingerprint” on the issues page. Read the “closed” issues as well, because all they did was close the issue and direct them to a discussion page.

Ah well I wish you luck with the fingerprint issues with those two browsers. Weird to care about AI being in your browser but not about that, but I guess its better than Chrome.

• Download source
• Delete ai commits
• Install deps per Firefox and OS docs
• Build per Firefox and OS docs

Now you won’t ever have to worry about it.

Better yet, install Tor Browser or Mullvad browser and save yourself from typing 3 command lines.

The source code is there. Why reinvent the wheel. Its like 2 or 3 commands to build it.

Feel free to make the pull request, dawg

Better yet, just make a pull request. Its open source. Can build your own Firefox.

Like I said, then use a fork.

Tor and Mullvad made some excellent browsers.

Bro, just turn it off if you don’t want it.

Or use Tor Browser or Mullvad Browser if you don’t wanna deal with it.

Yeah but 0.5.21 was never released on Arch

Holy. Shit.

I only see two? And they are just upstream updates.
