Mozilla is officially finally working on a tablet UI with tab strip, available now in Firefox Nightly!
  • Indeed, but tags are not available in Firefox for Android, if I'm not mistaken.

  • RTR#51 End of a short break
  • Welcome back!

    I'd like to know what is needed for the Interstellar app to support the kbin.social instance.
    Could you get in touch with the developer and/or enlighten us on that matter? I think app support would be a HUGE benefit to kbin.social.
    Thanks in advance!

  • Another Interstellar update: new icon, microblogging support, editing/deleting capabilities, youtube embedding, and more
  • @ernest When can we expect kbin.social to support the API and external logins?

    I really want to support Kbin and stay on your instance, but not having a mobile app is a serious deal-breaker. Supporting apps should get priority over introducing new kbin features IMHO. Kbin.social is the biggest instance, so I'd expect it to support all needed APIs?

    I hoped Artemis would deliver, but it didn't. Now Interstellar is my next resort. Today I even considered ... \ returning to Reddit \ for a brief moment.

  • New extensions you’ll love now available on Firefox for Android
  • Check out Simple Gestures. Not perfect, but works decently.

    Don't watch his video ... you don't want to reward such behavior with views.

  • Anyone else experiencing text being randomly selected on LinkedIn?
  • Seems like you have the technical background to further investigate this 🙃.

    Good to know it happens on Instagram as well.

  • Anyone else experiencing text being randomly selected on LinkedIn?
  • Thanks, maybe I will. It could be a problem on the side of LinkedIn too of course.

  • Anyone else experiencing text being randomly selected on LinkedIn?

    As the title says ... ever since Firefox v110, whenever I view a post (content, images or reactions) on LinkedIn and close it again by clicking outside the pop-up, text gets randomly selected. Still occurring in Firefox v120 on Windows 10.

    Interestingly, the problem doesn't occur if I close the pop-up using the "X" button.

    Really annoying. I wonder if other Firefox users encounter this problem as well? Please let me know!

    It's never been a better time to switch to Firefox on Android
  • Would be great if Firefox Translations are brought to Android.

    Please spread the word!

  • The lack of a mobile app doesn't help ... hope API support arrives soon.

  • /kbin Road to Release devlog series
  • Thanks for the updates, @ernest!

    Is support for third-party apps (through a Kbin API) something we may expect for this first version?

  • So, what's the status on the update?
  • Wishing you the best, Ernest. Take your time to get things sorted out. As I've said before, we can wait :)

  • Is Kbin dying? I wanted to address the deleted thread and provide some insight into the current situation.
  • Hi Ernest, just a little message to tell you that we can wait. Give your family issues priority. First things first. Thanks for all the work done.

  • Firefox 116.0 Release Notes
  • That was already possible for some time, actually. Glad you like it.

  • Time to ditch Twitter/X, what are you guys switching to?
  • Start following tags and people, even if you don't know them very well.

  • Microsoft removes functioning OneNote Web Clipper add-on from AMO, stating "people should use a modern browser like Edge"

    www.onenote.com OneNote Web Clipper Installation

    Quickly capture any webpage to OneNote where you can easily edit, annotate, or share it. Clip the full page, or clip only the article, recipe, or product information you really need.

    Web Clipper allows you to quickly capture any webpage to OneNote where you can easily edit, annotate, or share it.

    I still have the add-on installed and it is working just fine. If I remove it, I won't be able to re-install it. This feels like another dishonest statement pushing users towards Edge.

    Please, upvote this issue on their feedback portal and preferably, add a comment too. Spread the message to fellow Firefox users.

    The add-on should be brought back to Firefox!
