@grmpyoldman That newspaper doesn't want me to read their news on this javascrippled computer that I'm using. Fortunately #Firefox has its "Reader view" that removes the big "YOU NEED TO WHITELIST US" blob.
@lnxw48 @strypey #IceCat (and presumably #Firefox) has a setting to disallow that behaviour: "Edit, Preferences, Content, Enable Javascript Advanced, Disable or replace context menus" (uncheck to prevent sites from disabling copy'n'paste). But #NoScript is a better solution.

Temporary MarjoleinWorking to reorganise my #bookmarks a bit. The bookmark manager in #Firefox is actually very nice, but has one *major* flaw: if you do a search, there is no way to highlight a result and from there go to its parent folder. So there is no way to find out where - in the folder tree - something is stored. Which means you have to work hard to keep that tree well-organised otherwise you'll likely "lose" things that you know are there - but not where (and it's that much harder to gather things together that have become distributed over several trees) --- I've been reorganising for an hour or more, but *still* haven't found where those firewall-related bookmarks are that I need to put all in one place!
In Firefox this setting is called network.http.fast-fallback-to-IPv4 (was set to default boolean true). I set it to FALSE but that doesn't seem to change the test result :( #networking #IPv6 #firefox #fastfallback
After correcting that, and testing again, I get: "Your browser has real working IPv6 address - but is avoiding using it. We're concerned about this." Seems to be related to another setting, for "fast fallback" (Chrome/Chromium has this mechanism, too): test both connections, if IPv4 is faster, comntinue with that... #networking IPv6 #firefox #chrome #chromium #fastfallback
@einebiene I subscribe to all my RSS feeds in #Firefox ("smart bookmarks" or whatever they're called). As mentioned by others a podcast is just ordinary RSS with a media file attached, so it should work fine for that too.
