Linux Is Best128 GB of Ram means, yes, I can disable Windows page file. The only app that acts a little funny is Vivaldi's splash screen takes a second longer to dismiss itself. But that only happens when you 1st open the app, which is easy enough to ignore. <a href="https://mk.absturztau.be/tags/Vivaldi" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Vivaldi</a> <a href="https://mk.absturztau.be/tags/Windows" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Windows</a> <a href="https://mk.absturztau.be/tags/Ram" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ram</a>

Manu :leon: :firefox: :opensuse:Si existe una version libre y comunitaria del navegador de Google llamada Chromium ¿pq su uso no se generaliza en Linux y se recomiendan otras opciones como Brave, Vivaldi, Opera,...? La mayoria de los forks de chromium son personalizaciones y extensiones nativas a cambio de aceptar las condiciones de uso en cada caso, es decir, metemos en la cadena de nuestros datos un eslabon mas que es la empresa que esta detras del fork de chromium que hayamos elegido. He estado haciendo pruebas en el ultimo mes con forks de chromium y ninguno aporta una mejor experiencia de navegacion que chromium + ublock, estando la diferencia en la sincronizacion de cuentas que ofrecen los forks con el correspondiente riesgo que supone para la seguridad y privacidad de nuestros datos. ¿No creeis que la mayoria de estos forks de chromium se reducen a emplear la privacidad como una forma de marketing para incentivar el uso de su navegador sin que aporten nada extra en relacion a chromium + ublock? Y a colaccion de esta pregunta me viene la siguiente, ¿cuales son las motivaciones de las empresas que estan detras del desarrollo de los forks de Chromium y Firefox? Pq una empresa busca capitalizar el desarrollo del navegador de alguna manera y si el producto es gratis es que el producto eres tu.<a href="https://masto.es/tags/Firefox" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Firefox</a> <a href="https://masto.es/tags/Chromium" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Chromium</a> <a href="https://masto.es/tags/Brave" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Brave</a> <a href="https://masto.es/tags/Vivaldi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Vivaldi</a> <a href="https://masto.es/tags/Browser" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Browser</a> <a href="https://masto.es/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Linux</a>

David ChartierOh interesting, looks like the <a href="https://toot.cafe/tags/Vivaldi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Vivaldi</a> browser has introduced a blog feature, built on <a href="https://toot.cafe/tags/WordPress" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WordPress</a>.Seems free for now.

BadgerScot 🦡🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿Vivaldi and Proton VPN A couple of days ago Vivaldi 7.3 brought with it small surprise: the inclusion of a new toolbar button that would set you up with a Proton VPN account (using your Vivaldi credentials). There was mixed reaction to this in the Fedi. Some lauded the inclusion of VPN from a known and trusted company, while others reacted in horror because of an incident that Proton's CEO, Andy Yen, was involved with in January of this year. where he seemingly publicly praised one President Donald Trump. When hearing of the furore for the first time I asked for information and was provided a link that I read and quick-fire reacted to, but I knew I'd need to take a deeper look to settle the issue to my satisfaction. Fedi, I don't think he's a Trump Supporter. If he's guilty of anything it's naivety. I'm not sure he sees the threat Trump or the GOP represent. Have a read of <a href="https://medium.com/@ovenplayer/does-proton-really-support-trump-a-deeper-analysis-and-surprising-findings-aed4fee4305e" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Medium.com's piece analysing the situation</a>. I agree with their points and certainly can't dispute their findings. Proton do seem to be Good Guys, folks who are on Our Side as much as they can be. I think using Proton's email or VPN is fine IF you are using these services carefully, e.g. <a href="https://cyberinsider.com/protonmail-discloses-user-data-leading-to-arrest-in-spain/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">don't give Proton recovery email addresses that can then be used to reveal your identity</a>. They do hand over data, although this is whatever metadata you've given them - your content is always secure, as advertised. Not ideal, but then what is in this crazy, complicated world? I'll also point out that they actively fight back against unlawful requests, and particularly any from the US. I also don't think this is any reflection on Vivaldi the company or Browser, so I will be forcefully rejecting calls by anyone to boycott company or browser on this basis. Vivaldi simply need money, and this partnership is another way they're trying to keep themselves afloat. Both companies have excellent, evidenced track records that speak to who they are. Both companies have excellent staffing, of the kind we on Fedi should at the very least have no issue with. I personally will not be using Proton's VPN; I already have one I've been using since 2016, though I am shopping for a new one. I've also taken Proton's Vivaldi offering out for a wee test drive because <a href="https://kitty.social/tags/SoftwareGeek" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SoftwareGeek</a>. My rejection of their service is no comment on the company or software itself. Vivaldi is still a top-tier browser. I 100% believe you can use it safely and ethically. Their politics are YOUR politics (unless you skew extreme). The Fedi is wonderful but the Fedi is also VERY Black and White at times. Sometimes critical thinking is missed in lieu of solidarity with the trending winds. But back to here and now I'm rejecting this VPN brouhaha as a storm in a tea-cup. <a href="https://kitty.social/tags/Vivaldi" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Vivaldi</a> <a href="https://kitty.social/tags/ProtonVPN" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ProtonVPN</a>

A Hard Man to Like™ 🇦🇺<a href="https://mastodon.social/@dhry" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@dhry</a> Why do I care?The <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Chrome" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Chrome</a>-flavored settings page in <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Vivaldi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Vivaldi</a> immediately shows where to delete browsing history, in Privacy and Security. I needed to delete all saved passwords for sites today.I can't find delete all history ANYWHERE in the Vivaldi-flavored Privacy and Security page. Keywords like "delete" and "clear" bring back NOTHING useful.Is this a defect?

A Hard Man to Like™ 🇦🇺Something interesting about <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Vivaldi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Vivaldi</a>. if you go to Settings you get the Vivaldi UI for settings (duh). vivaldi://settings/general shows in the URL field.NOW manually enter chrome:settings in the URL field. A different settings page shows up but the URL changes to vivaldi://settingsClick "Privacy and security" and you get a completely different page than clicking the same thing in the first settings layout.
