Rules
While we are not an official Mozilla community, we have adopted the Mozilla Community Participation Guidelines as far as it can be applied to a bin.
Rules
-
Always be civil and respectful
Don't be toxic, hostile, or a troll, especially towards Mozilla employees. This includes gratuitous use of profanity. -
Don't be a bigot
No form of bigotry will be tolerated. -
Don't post security compromising suggestions
If you do, include an obvious and clear warning. -
Don't post conspiracy theories
Especially ones about nefarious intentions or funding. If you're concerned: Ask. Please don’t fuel conspiracy thinking here. Don’t try to spread FUD, especially against reliable privacy-enhancing software. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Show credible sources. -
Don't accuse others of shilling
Send honest concerns to the moderators and/or admins, and we will investigate. -
Do not remove your help posts after they receive replies
Half the point of asking questions in a public sub is so that everyone can benefit from the answers—which is impossible if you go deleting everything behind yourself once you've gotten yours.

@[email protected] Yeah. I get it. But to turn off the feature entirely in the browser to even do that is pretty annoying.
I should have the freedom to choose to have dark themes on.
Fair, and this is why I hesitate to recommend LibreWolf as a true alternative to Firefox. It wasn’t meant to be the common man’s general browser. It was flavored with a privacy goal in mind and that’s what it does.
It’s a half-step toward recommending someone use Tor browser as a daily driver. Which wouldn’t work out very well. But it’s quite private and anonymous!
There just wasn’t a need/enough funding or drive for another “good enough” browser like Firefox, the answer for that was Firefox. Everyone else is off one deep end or another.
@[email protected] Also, what I am doing is probably even worse for security. I am literally installing add-ons just to get dark theme back because I don't want to be uncomfortable reading my screen.
So much theory crafting that ends up being just annoying and useless. Reminds me of that guy who said sorry for forcing symbols and special characters on passwords because he didn't understand probability theory.
