  • On nautilus you can’t even click the address bar. On dolphin it still works as you say.

    I didn’t even realize this until you wrote it down. That is bad. It’s the same on mobile. Consistent behavior is good. At first you select the box and then write into it. It’s good that it selects everything, otherwise you would have to select everything in order to be able to use it as the search box. It would be very annoying if it were differently.

    That leads me to the question: why aren’t we using the path box to search stuff like on browsers? Dolphin even opens firefox and searches for “http://test” when I type just “test” into it. Why is http the default protocol?


  • Because the Firefox browser is open-source, we know Firefox inside and out

    Ok

    Tip: you will still need to restart Firefox for the latest version.

    That shows who the target group is

    1. To state that firefox is fully compatible with flatpak is great! That is a reason to use the flatpak version of it.
    2. Nice
    3. It’s nice to see better performance but you could’ve just told distro maintainers what to do
    4. Updates are fast even if you use the flatpak or distro build.

    I use firefox btw

    Edit: I compeltely forgot that ubuntu replaced firefox with the snap version. Is this the reason why they do it?

    And, I don’t like that ubuntu replaced the distro firefox with snap but at the same time I don’t like that fedora still sticks with the distro firefox and not the flatpak version on atomics. I am nuts.

    Edit2: I am not nuts! Ubuntu let’s you believe you install the apt version of firefox. Fedora shall replsce firefox with flatpak but it shall not pretend that it’s installed via rpm-ostree / dnf.
