G'day :)
Just a query. I use both WhatsApp and Messenger via the PWAs for Firefox extension. Both offer to install their own native apps on Windows, but I don't trust that this is safe since I assume they could then monitor anything else going on on my computer.
Would that be a fair assumption?
Have been using this for occasional outside broadcasts. It stopped working today. Downgrading to version 7.0.4 fixed it for now. Unfortunately Rustdesk doesn't support reverse tunnels so I'll have to hunt for an alternative method.
Finally migrated back to Firefox today after a multi year user of Chrome.
What pushed me over the edge? Most of my app icons (keep, pulse, calender, whatsapp) stopped opening in their own windows again.
I had to install the PWA extension in Firefox to get that working again, and it's going to be a slight hassle having to copy and paste URLs from all those windows, but I'm tired of fixing the task bar icons.
Could've gone to Edge since it would work out of the box, but I like Firefox. (except for no native PWA support.)
Edit: found I can right click links in the PWA instances and use the send to other device option to open them in my main Firefox window.
If you're on kbin and getting an invalid csrf error, can't log in; use your email address instead of your username and you might be able to get in.
If not, try another browser.
G'day :)
I notice that recently, imgur images no longer appear even if 'auto load media' is turned on. I'm guessing this is because Imgur replaces just the image with something like an iframe that tries to get you to go to their site as well as showing the image?
If you're like me and have auto load media turned on, you may find that when you go 'back' you end up at the end of the page since the images aren't cached.
An easy workaround is to get in the habit of long pressing and choosing 'open in Chrome'
When you click back, the Chrome session ends and you're back in the PWA where you were before.
