Oh thanks, didn’t know there was a Qt counterpart, it looks pretty good!

Ah that’s annoying, so as I understand it should just be down to having persistent sink and routing right? Not sure if this what you want as I haven’t tried, but could this thread be helpful?

Great! I agree it’s a little rough for now, and it seems development is kinda slow, but it works for what it tries to achieve already

It’s probably the pulseaudio provided by the pipewire backend, it is there for compatibility with apps that still rely on it: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PipeWire#PulseAudio_clients

You can also use Helvum, it’s a patchbay native to Pipewire

Nick is a real one, I’d be lost without his tutorials!
It’s really telling of how much great software needs great people to showcase it for it to become more widespread, just like Blender for instance

It really should, no doubt, but this is not a perfect world

Wow, that’s egregious on so many levels!
This kind of browser apartheid should be illegal

I see, could the bug report have just been forgotten by now? Long time, lol

Anyway, use what works for you honestly, Firefox is cool, but it doesn’t have to be the only one

I mean you’d be running the server only when actually needed, but I understand it is a bit of a hassle to do every time as well

Yeah, it’s not really for normal browsing though

Just curious, does that only affect macOS?
I tried on Linux and saw no hanging nor any cores at 100% usage, bit slow on performance though, yes

Lol, still, you can have separate profiles no?

If that’s your only gripe with it, you can still access them by using one of the simple web servers available running inside Termux, that will also allow you to avoid CORS related problems, in fact it is the currently suggested method on MDN

Agreed, to actually convince anyone who uses it to switch over to another one I would have liked to see an objective comparison of how solid the privacy features are on both browsers, that’s the only relevant argument that matters to anyone regardless of their ethical beliefs, here the only thing that tarnished Brave’s reputation for privacy was the injected affiliate URL parameters, that’s pretty bad, but it has also been fixed since, doesn’t mean we can blindly trust Brave now, but it’s not as bad as it is made out to be. To make a counterpoint, I think it’s good that there is a privacy focused Chromium browser, because they can take a stance against proposed Chromium changes, like the handicapped ad blockers under manifest v3 or the most recent WEI, Chrome still goes ahead and implements those, but Brave remains and keeps their Chromium saner.
Personally I barely use it, but for what I have seen it has its ups and downs, if we also bring who’s behind the product into the picture then even Mozilla hasn’t always done good and good alone

Does changing user agent mitigate some of those issues?

Out of the box Firefox is definitely not very privacy conscious, better than Chrome no doubt, but worse than Brave. It can be configured to be better than both or one can use Librewolf/Mullvad browser

I’ve been loving it honestly, I used to mess up my systems pretty often in a way that upgrading to new releases had to be done from the command line because of random repositories I added, so things felt unstable.
Immutable systems on the other hand are dumbass (me) proof and I can still do what I used to do with those repos in safe environments or Flatpak now that it has become so ubiquitous for packaging.
Immutability is not a must, even though I really like the philosophy, in fact, if you’re comfortable with what you have, you might be fine just converting over your current OS to btrfs.

Good luck, whichever option you try!

You can try doing an in-place conversion, here’s a guide and the official documentation, remember to BACKUP and TEST your BACKUP at least twice, if things don’t go well, you’ll be able to fall back.
If you want to avoid all the setup headache, just reinstall with btrfs by default (I suggest Fedora Silverblue or openSUSE Tumbleweed for that) of course you’ll still have to backup, just your data though, to be restored on the new system

That sounds like a job for btrfs snapshots, they’re provided by default in openSUSE
