Ah, I see @Mastodon is now cargo-culting RDFa metadata on webpages. https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2024/07/highlighting-journalism-on-mastodon/
Context: https://www.ctrl.blog/entry/rdfa-socialmedia-metadata.html
This new tag should also have been a <link> and not a <meta> element. https://www.ctrl.blog/entry/html-link-metadata.html Posted on Vivaldi Social on -

“Please try and disable all your extensions,” might have to go on my gravestone at this point. Yes, all those symptoms can be caused by one or a combination of extensions. No, I’m not surprised the issue went away after you disabled your extensions. #browserLife #QA #ManifestV3Now Posted on Vivaldi Social on

🐧 Here are some documentation for Vivaldi’s new “Decryption failed: risk of data loss” dialog that might appear on startup for #Linux users. I might have forgotten to prepare the documentation page for this feature before it went live. https://forum.vivaldi.net/post/762768 Posted on Vivaldi Social on

I’m playing with 🐞 Ladybird browser this evening. It’s a very ambitious project that’s building a new independent browser engine. Respect. It has seen some real improvements since I looked at it a year ago. https://ladybird.dev/ Posted on Vivaldi Social on

I struggle to process it whenever I see Kevin Sorbo’s face in the news or social media associated with whatever the latest incredibly dumb thing he has said. To me, he was the last guardian of The Systems Commonwealth; a hero from another time. He was supposed to rekindle the light of civilization and reunite the galaxy…. Captain Dylan Hunt would have punched Kevin Sorbo’s face into a black hole. #AndromedaAscendant #2000sSciFi Posted on Vivaldi Social on

When did you last see a Wi-Fi network named _optout or _nomap? You can append either of these to your SSID to tell companies not to use your WiFi signal for geolocation. I don’t think I’ve ever seen one out in the world. Not sure why anyone but a military base would want this, though. Posted on Vivaldi Social on

Putting aside the question of whether all content everywhere should be a free-for-all for machine-learning, … is @Mojeek’s opt-out proposal workable?<meta name=robots value=noml> https://blog.mojeek.com/2023/10/noml-proposal-and-open-letter.htmlOkay, so you can’t put aside the fundamental question: Why should creators have to put in extra effort not to have their work exploited without their permission? Big tech should be required to license content for commercial exploitation like everyone else. Posted on Vivaldi Social on

I’ll want Corning’s new Gorilla Armor glass in my next smartphone. It’s anti-glare properties look amazing on the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra. I’m hoping we’ll see it in more affordable devices from other manufacturers soon! #betterLivingThroughChemestry Posted on Bluesky on

My employer, @jon, is celebrating his 30th anniversary of “working on web browsers.” My first online purchase was a paid license to the Opera web browser (his previous browser company). I don’t remember the exact year, but it must have been over two decades ago. Posted on Vivaldi Social on

Hate those pesky consent dialogs? Give #Consent-O-Matic a try! This is a better approach (causes less site-issues) than whichever ones you might have tried in the past. Available for most desktop browsers. #CMP #browserExtensions consentomatic.au.dk https://consentomatic.au.dk/ Posted on Bluesky on

My #Zstandard decompression browser test pages now actually works in Chromium and Firefox (with the right experimental flags enabled). Before today, the decompression test was accidentally double-compressed. Zstd is on the track to be enabled by default in Chromium. #WebDev https://www.daniel.priv.no/tools/zstd-browser-test/ Posted on Vivaldi Social on

@floccus Hi, the Getting Started guide does not say whether #Floccus can run at the same time as the browser’s built-in syncing service. Is this supported? How and why may it go wrong? Say, I wanted to install Floccus on Vivaldi and Firefox and also run Firefox Sync and Vivaldi Sync. I’m assuming this is a recipe for disaster, but the guide doesn’t say anything about it. 🙂 Posted on Vivaldi Social on

One of my home ISPs just enabled #IPv6. I’ve not had IPv6 at home in 6,5 years. Unfortunately, it was my slow non-symmetric backup provider and not my main symmetric-gigabit speeds provider. I’ll need to turn off IPv6 on my end to keep routing through the much faster IPv4-only provider. 🤷♂️ Posted on Bluesky on
