    Now trying out Firefox latest build on my PC - so far, so good, and because I’m so used to Chrome, I’ve made it look similar at the very least 🙂

    I’ve hit a snag. The development (F12) tools on Firefox really aren’t that great and it doesn’t behave in the same way as every other WebKit based browser does.

    The ability to highlight specific elements is missing, and you cannot click vars which would typically be a link to the value. Nothing happens when you do click then, and that’s going to completely change the way I develop.

    Not good. Going to check to see if there’s anything I can do about that. If not, goodbye Firefox…

    After much deliberation, I’ve stopped using Firefox. Just too many things I dislike - in fact, way more than I’d care to list. I’ve gone back to using Edge - both on my desktop, and mobile. I think the thing that really put me off was the stock developer tools in Firefox. They are simply awful in my view and not a great experience at all.

    In fairness, there is this

    However, having checked, the F12 developer console is exactly the same??

    Personnaly, I don’t use firefox since 2 or 3 years for Vivaldi for so many reasons but I still recommend Firefox to those who have basic use of the web.

    I love the console of Vivaldi on Desktop

    Vivaldi uses the same WebKit engine as Edge

    Tried this browser again this evening. It’s an acquired taste in my view. Not something I’d specifically choose. Reminds me somehow of how Opera used to be.

    @JAC yes, same here. A lot of that functionality made it’s way into Vivaldi so you will probably feel at home.

    @JAC yes, for a short time. It’s quite good but I’m no Firefox fan which is what this is based on.

    @phenomlab I mainly use Brave & Vivaldi myself, the lack of android platform is definitely a turn off.

    You have Floorp too. It’s a firefox Fork with several functionnality of Vivaldi 🙂
    Given the twist that Firefox is taking, this should be taken into consideration.

    Here an article on my forum (in french --> Use traduction)

    @DownPW the favicon won’t work because of the settings (security headers) you have in CF - they are probably origin only meaning the proxy gets access denied.

    @phenomlab

    hmmm strange Mark, I have change it. We should look at this together if you want.

    I meant that they don’t work in Google results either. OK, I understand about OG Proxy.

    The favicon works randomly in the browser but I would like them to work correctly.
    I have found that NodeBB works strangely on this.

    @crazycells I did see something similar to that article, yes. I never fully understood why anyone would want to give unfettered and complete access to AI without first understanding exactly what it had control of, and what it intended to do with that access. This isn’t the first “horror story” and it won’t be the last.

    @phenomlab LOL yep that is right, because there was a huge stack of them, I remember and it seemed like it took forever to go through the whole stack. Then you had to install drivers for each device. Oh the good ole days haha

    @phenomlab I think I am going to switch to this theme eventually. The one I have is ok, but the price for this theme and what you get with it is really good. The business has broken even and is actually making some money now. We will see what the future holds. I am hoping to start getting enough business so I am behind 2 to 3 months. So we will see. My Arch web server has been working great! No issues with it so far. The only thing lately was the mail server software being updated, and they broke everything. I was able to make the required changes and get it back working and it has been working amazingly so far. I am still really happy I switched to Arch Linux Server and I haven’t had to reinstall the whole operating system due to this switch.

    @Sala Yes, I personally use Edge. Hated Internet Exploder (misspell intentional) but seeing as Edge is Chromium and Webkit backed, it works for me.
