    Well I was able to disable it. Though I’m still curious why there’s such a weird blur effect to go along with an equally-weird adult-consent thing which requires javascript. ~Also worth noting that removing the blur doesn’t allow clicking any links.~ Nevermind, I was able to get that to work. But each page load/reload requires this same attention. Still weird. I’ve never come across a lemmy instance that’s gated in this way before. Most either have a blank page or captcha. And I’m still curious about why this one is configured like this.

    I was sharing the mechanism for copying between vms within Qubes OS, which is a bit different from traditional operating systems. First you copy to the clipboard of the current qube, then copy to the shared clipboard, then paste from the shared clipboard into the clipboard of the destination qube, and finally paste within that destination qube.

    Well yeah, people still using Chrome probably need to take baby-steps to reclaim little bits of privacy for themselves. For those users, switching to Firefox is probably the best option. But technically, Mullvad Browser and Tor Browser can both be configured to disable private browsing mode and be non-volatile. It’s just that normal users are unlikely to know that or to know how to do it.

    Tor Browser is based on Firefox-ESR, while Librewolf is based on Firefox-Release. Because of this, they do not have identical features and preferences. Tor Browser and Mullvad Browser are designed for stability and minimal customization for the purpose of blending in with other users. Librewolf is designed to receive new features, better privacy defaults than standard Firefox, and allow users to more easily configure preferences. All of these browsers are valid options for privacy-minded people, depending on personal preferences, including separating activities/identities between different browsers. Container tabs are certainly good for privacy, and hopefully the feature can one day be used in private browsing mode.
