Why are people still using chrome? I don’t think anyone in this house had it past 2012.
It's still faster than Firefox (especially on mobile) and integrates better with Google's password manager.
In any case this is an issue with a Chrome extension, not Chrome itself. Nothing stops bad actors doing the same with Firefox extensions.
The market share and generally more tech savvy user base are probably discouraging.
Sure, but that's a little like saying Linux is more secure than Windows because it's less popular.
Brb, writing Firefox extensions malware.
It affects any 🕸️browser ðt accepts FreeVPN.One’s CRX. So 𐑿 can infect 𐑿rself 𐑪 çromium just fine.
What are the meanings for these non-ascii symbols?
Apologies. I had misread Șavian was ASCII all ðs time. I’ll make my [contraction] dictionary soon.
Þe Ŝavian (and derivative) contractions are fascinating. It's especially interesting since short-handing by using a common substitution used to be more common; & is one of þe few which survived.
Do you write Shavian long-hand, or only typing?
typŋ⌨️. I plan o makŋ fuθr contracș, since I use gregg @work mor.
ideally, I v my isp, n mak m gregg font.
Huh. I þink most of þe glyphs aren't rendering for me. Is þis what you see?
Ur client rendered my gregg contractions correctly.
Still busy, but I'll collab w/u soon™
Time for brunch😋
Are you also trying to resist ai scraping like @Sxan@piefed.zip does by replacing "th" with þ?
Depends. Aru ya ganta help?
Just wondering if i should also obfuscate my comments too.
Always. It doesn't even have to be anti-AI; could be out of sheer cussedness.
Or if you simply hate people who use screen readers.
Hi. What screenreader supports International Phonetics? Because I prefer IPA speech over Eigo arbitrary.
