FIREFOX SLOWING
Mastodon Post

The Firefox update before the latest caused my browser use to slow tremendously. Mozilla must program with Fortran or Pascal. Firefox has since fixed the problem only up to a point. YouTube may not be the best example since it is said that Google is warring against Firefox. But I am still having much trouble with Amazon, Mastodon (C.IM server), Facebook, Bandcamp and others. I have cut down on use of Tabs and I've checked whether drivers are up-to-date. Problems persist. Are other people having similar trouble? Chrome and Microsoft Edge performed even worse. I am inexpert at working out Chrome problems so I just quit it.

Es mag schwer verständlich sein, aber #Mozilla und andere verstoßen gegen geltendes Recht, auch wenn sie »nur« anonymisierte Telemetriedaten sammeln. Nach dem #TDDDG ist es unerheblich, ob die Daten anonym, pseudonym oder personenbezogen sind. Entscheidend ist, ob Informationen auf dem Endgerät gespeichert oder daraus ausgelesen werden. Beides erfordert nach § 25 Abs. 1 TDDDG eine Einwilligung, sofern es nicht »technisch erforderlich« ist. Sorry Folks. 👇

uBlock Origin Lite maker ends Firefox store support, slams Mozilla for hostile reviews

The maker of the uBlock Origin Lite extension has ended its support in the Firefox Add-ons Store, citing a "nonsensical and hostile" review process.

#Mozilla later admitted in an email that they had made a #mistake regarding the #extension, but Hill has ultimately decided to cease development of the uBlock Origin Lite add-on for Firefox.

Due to a conflict with Mozilla, the add-on's developer has taken it off the Firefox Marketplace.

The complaint is good. But since this exists already since version 128.0.0 it would be helpful to tell the people how they can disable it:
1. Click the menu button and select Settings.
2. In the Privacy & Security panel, find the Website Advertising Preferences section.
3. Uncheck the box labeled "Allow websites to perform privacy-preserving ad measurement".
After disabling it, it stays disabled for further versions.

Really love how GNOME Settings links to this excellent page on Mozilla’s privacy policy for location data.
