Not really a firefox answer, but you can try Adguard or Aha DNS Blitz. i also recently discovered Orion browser, which allows you to install FF extensions like uBO.

Does the lack of back support not cause issues? I feel like I’ll go into a slouch position if I have nothing to lean on.

Orion browser for IOS allows you to install FF extensions like uBlock Origin.

What if solving interstellar travel isn't about figuring out faster than light propulsion, but how to extend our own lives? in c/askscience

[–] spacedancer 5 points 2 years ago

That, and figuring out how to travel even just a significant fraction of the speed of light.

What steps can I take to be more secure on the internet? in c/[email protected]

[–] spacedancer 3 points 2 years ago

It would be a good idea to explore Linux if you care about all the telemetry Windows collects. There are distros out there that are so user friendly that someone using Windows their entire life can hit the ground running, like Linux Mint.

Discord Shouldn’t Be Your Main Messenger. in c/discordapp

Security issues aside, it’s not designed to be a messenger app anyway.

I looked it up in google maps and there’s a freakin’ LDS church there of all places.

Tutanota vs Proton Mail in c/[email protected]

[–] spacedancer 7 points 2 years ago

Protonmail’s interface and mobile app is more refined and faster than Tutanota’s, and PM has more features on their free tier than what Tutanota provides on their free tier. Having said that, both are great email providers. I have accounts on both but I tend to use PM more at this point in time.

What Reddit client did you use before the API changes? in c/[email protected]

[–] spacedancer 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I went Alien Blue > Antenna > Narwhal. I think the latter 2 were similar to the original AB. Apollo just felt too cluttered and “extra” to me. I just wanted a minimalist app.

Apollo would be proud of both in c/[email protected]

I just want to say I love the friendly "competition" between you guys. It just results in better and better products. I have both and I use them equally. Great work on Mlem, and thanks for opening up the beta signup when I asked a couple of days ago. lol

How about participating in /r/Place and promoting the fediverse? in c/[email protected]

I think they're doing fine as is. We'll just drive more traffic to reddit if people on here who haven't joined yet start participating. The fact that they also force you to use the official app and new.reddit to see it (and probably participate too) makes it worse. I only browse the site using old.reddit so that's already a no for me.

I have both Memmy and Mlem and I switch between them every time one releases an update to see who's better.
