Klyith posted:It's insanely annoying if you use uBlock in "3rd-party scripts blocked unless whitelisted" mode, because now even resources that used to count as first-party are now revealed to be on some CDN edge network and thus blocked. At the very least it helps to set a shortcut to the 'relax blocking mode' option in the uBlock Origin dashboard, since you can then try a key combination which automatically reloads the page and might make it work.

On the main settings page, on the line "I am an advanced user" there's a little gears icon. Click that. Then find cnameUncloak in that list and set it to false.

Is there something wrong with the "Autoplay" setting in Firefox? I have it set to "Block Audio" as a default and I have nobody whitelisted. Yet, when I visited this news site and I scrolled a bit down on the page, some stupid video started playing with audio on. Firefox says I didn't give any special permissions to the website and I don't think I clicked play on the video. Did people find a way to break it? I'm only running ublock origin.

It's not a blocker, the FF component that plays video is supposed to just not play anything. But as soon as you interact with the page with clicks or keys it allows video to play. FF doesn't know what stuff on the page might be controls for the video player, so they just enable video after anything. So: Volguus posted:Yet, when I visited this news site and I scrolled a bit down on the page 1. Load page, click on the page, scroll down 2.

Now there's an obnoxious shaking icon in the bar even though I've disabled notifications from anywhere and set it to not allow sites to request them in both normal settings and about :config. I loving hate it so much.

I do like to click/highlight poo poo as I'm reading, so that's what makes the videos play. Hmm, ok, is there a solution for this? To only record media player interactions as actual actions to let it play? Or do I have to just walk on glass with any website?

You could block jwplayer universally by setting this stuff:  to blocked global, then allowed local for sites you want to play video.

I would love to see videos only playing due to interacting with protected controls. I don't know what they were thinking allowing sites to bind it to page-scrolling keys.

Is there an extension that will search using multiple search engines whenever I search via that address bar? Doing this via 1 tab per selected search engine would be fine.

I don't know about easiest, but https://github.com/Aris-t2/CustomCSSforFx/releases is what I use. You do need to flip through the code and turn stuff on/off though. But I only really bother to update it when something breaks, which works out to every couple of months.

Since the child designers at mozilla mostly just move buttons and css around this is the only reliable way. Having a more skilled unpaid volunteer do it.

Sorry if this has been asked before, but is there a plugin (or even standard included hotkey in FF/Windows) that can tell me where highlighted text from a <ctrl-f> find is? For example, let's say I clicked on the smilies link when composing a post here. and want to find a smiley that contains the phrase "duck" So I <ctrl-f>, type "duck" It says I get 4 matches, and I can select next/previous, and the screen shifts, but the highlighted text is not readily visible. I still have to painfully hunt for it. Is there a way/toggle something, like a cursor or animation, that shows where it is? Thanks slidebite fucked around with this message at 18:02 on Mar 7, 2020 |

Try out about :config -> findbar.modalHighlight set to true that darkens the page to make highlights more visible and makes a "bounce" effect when you ctrl+g OTOH it's buggy and not very well implemented, definitely a thing that moz got bored of and stopped working on before finishing rip findbar tweak

Speaking of Firefox Preview, I was wondering if it was in a state to replace my current use cases for regular Firefox for Android and Firefox Focus: 1) Regular browser, remembering state. If opened fresh, show a home page (my home intranet page). The former works out of the box, but I can't figure out how to set a home page. 2) Focus-like mode, where all state from links opened externally is destroyed automatically. Not sure how to achieve this with the new focus.
