Ddreamyuki Firefox

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:02 PM

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:03 PM

dreamyukiOP•6/30/24, 10:03 PM

Google Chrome is fine

Janier•6/30/24, 10:03 PM

Edge :clueless:

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:04 PM

all 3 suggestions would work as alternatives

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:04 PM

so, true

JJanier Edge :clueless:

Crono•6/30/24, 10:04 PM

This but unironically

dreamyukiOP•6/30/24, 10:04 PM

Edge is worse than Chrome tbf
first time launch you will meet ads and news

Crono•6/30/24, 10:05 PM

Just disable them

Crono•6/30/24, 10:06 PM

I'd pick Brave, Ungoogled Chromium and Edge over Chrome in that order

dreamyukiOP•6/30/24, 10:08 PM

i rather use Chrome which have better experience ootb than Edge

Janier•6/30/24, 10:08 PM

I would like to not use chromium web browser but oh well,I hope is just for a short time

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:10 PM

there is 2 other options

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:10 PM

both allow you to still use firefox

CCrono I'd pick Brave, Ungoogled Chromium and Edge over Chrome in that order

not_leader•6/30/24, 10:10 PM

i would recommend brave a total of never

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:10 PM

stay on X11 or set the permissions in Flatseal for Firefox to put it in Xwayland mode

not_leader•6/30/24, 10:10 PM

does webkit work on nvidia?

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:11 PM

at least until the issue with firefox and the 555 drivers are fixed

Nnot_leader does webkit work on nvidia?

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:11 PM

id assume so

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:11 PM

i dont have nvidia hardware but im sure epiphany works

not_leader•6/30/24, 10:11 PM

so i guess midori's also an option

not_leader•6/30/24, 10:12 PM

wait midori's gecko?

not_leader•6/30/24, 10:12 PM

okay my info is 5 years out of date

Oddr•6/30/24, 10:18 PM

The Flatseal approach works nicely

Eggman•6/30/24, 10:22 PM

floorp is good too

Shacruel•6/30/24, 10:22 PM

These settings in Flatpak Permissions work for me

Blaire•6/30/24, 10:25 PM

oh cool i can just do that for my retroarch! i was using an environment variable to make it use xwayland but this is more clear

Blaire•6/30/24, 10:26 PM

should I have access to the Exhibit program after updating? im not seeing it installed or is it only for new installations?

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:28 PM

yeah kyle seems to have made it for new installations only

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:29 PM

thats interesting

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:29 PM

i can PR a fix

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:29 PM

then it just needs to be reviewed and pushed to main and built again and you'll have it

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/30/24, 10:29 PM

if you want it now then you can install it in Discover/GNOME Software

SShacruel These settings in Flatpak Permissions work for me

Janier•6/30/24, 10:30 PM

I'm pretty noob what this means? I can install something and told it to execute it on x11?
