If anyone is looking for a browser extension that does essentially the same thing as youtube-dl for YouTube then YouTube Video and Audio Downloader (WebEx) is what you're looking for. I would use youtube-dl otherwise but having something with the same functionality that works in Firefox itself is too useful to pass up. Granted it's only built to work on YouTube but that's about all that I'd need a video downloader for anyway.

Gorilla Salad posted:Youtube has started to play up for me recently. I can play videos no problem, but the frame on the left hand side where all my subscriptions are will no longer scroll, so most of my subs are out of reach. The rest of the page scrolls down fine, just not the bit on the left. I'm not sure about ESR, but it can be fixed on 57+ by installing Stylish and then this custom script that adds the feature back. You can apparently browse the most recent uploads from your subscriptions by going here, but it's not even close to being a replacement in any way. I kinda suspect that Google is trying something here to see how many people just give up and go to Chrome in the time it takes for this "problem" to be fixed. zetamind2000 fucked around with this message at 08:23 on Mar 28, 2018 |

Gorilla Salad posted:Holy poo poo - for once it's not just me! No problem. From what I could find Google has said that this is a bug that they were working on fixing but the fact that the script itself is so tiny for what it does shows that the functionality is still there but is being deliberately held back. Google is loving terrible. FRINGE posted:Yeah but they are very dedicated to making sure all the important stuff keeps working. Really, really loving terrible. There's an add-on to block block bitcoin miners but it doesn't seem to be updated fast enough to stop the big ones. I recommend supplementing it with adblock filters like these, although it's recommended to also install the uBlock Origin-specific filter provided. zetamind2000 fucked around with this message at 19:34 on Mar 28, 2018 |

Fangs404 posted:What YouTube extension(s) are you guys using these days? I've been using YouTube High Definition for a long time now, which I love because it's simple and does exactly what I need (auto-HD, auto-expand video area, etc.), but it hasn't been updated in about a year and occasionally acts funky due to YT layout changes. I'm worried it's been abandoned or something happened to the dev, so I'd like to find a replacement. YouTube Video and Audio Downloader is probably the best extension of its type if you download a lot of videos and/or convert them into different formats.

Abandoning Gecko for Blink means Mozilla would have to abandon Rust as well, and I can't see them leaving behind their seemingly long-term goal of writing the entire thing in Rust.

Has anyone else been having the problem where firefox nightly randomly corrupts its own profile every three or four days? I have no idea if my update settings (automatically install updates using a background service) are causing something to go wrong and corrupt everything or if this is just the intended nightly experience. Assuming that I'm loving something up here, how do I fix it?

loving yikes, at this point they should just spin off the non-business parts of Mozilla into something similar to The Document Foundation. There's no way the community could possibly gently caress this up any worse than Mozilla already has.

Does anyone know how to turn off the translucent toolbar overlay in 89? It lights up every theme I have and ruins most of them aside from the default themes (which is likely intentional) I've turned off proton in about:config and while this unfucks most of the ui problems it doesn't fix this

Neophyte posted:Well, not only did 91.0 remove the ability to disable the lovely Proton UI, but now in my settings none of the checkboxes show a check or not. That was a fun thing to discover when I was checking my preferences during my migration to waterfox earlier today. I had to make some guesses because I didn't know what the gently caress was going on and I'm not about to start firefox again to check. I was a user of firefox since 2008 and was largely apathetic to every downgrade they've made but proton is too much, holy gently caress the ui is awful and for whatever reason it messes up the only theme I use by adding a visible bar that's above an annoying barely-translucent foreground that I can't remove I saw a post on reddit a while ago saying that mozilla hasn't added any new browser customization features in years, they've only taken them away. I've been a huge firefox apologist for over a decade but gently caress this, waterfox or nothing zetamind2000 fucked around with this message at 05:43 on Aug 11, 2021 |
