You know those websites that load a little bit of the page as you scroll, I want to search the whole thing ! First it would be something that autoscrolls the page without needing me to keep the page down button pressed down for the entire duration, which can be a lot. I want to do other things while this happens Second, some websites, like facebook, actually UNLOAD from memory the data as you scroll further, defeating the simple scroll down. So, once the first one is done, I would like something that aggregates the entire page and loads it in a static second tab and/or saves it to a single file ? Is there anything like that, yet ?

 BTW this is on gigabit internet It is quite annoyting, it prevents some other addons like close duplicates from running at all, as it does not run as long as there is something loading Fortunately, "Stop all" does work to shut them off https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/98152847-4f2b-4391-92c1-f146e755c54c.png This is a new behaviour from today, possibly ? I just gave it a try, openned 3 tabs and waited 60 seconds, they didn't finish loading. I tried turning off ublock, no effect NOTE : Issue has resolved itself after a reboot. This is a system with a amd 5950x and 64gb ram.

Hi, Once in a while I try to clean up my tabs. First thing I do is use "merge all windows" to put all tabs into one window. This often causes a memory clog and firefox get stuck in this state for 10-20 minutes I have recorded one such instance. I have tried using the "discard all tabs" addon, unfortunately, it is also getting frozen by the memory clog. Sometimes I will just reboot my PC as that is faster. Unfortunately, killing firefox this way, does not save the new tab order, so when I start firefox again, it will have 20+ windows open, which I again, merge all pages and then it clogs again ! So far the only solution I have found is just wait the 20 minutes. Once the "memory clog" is passed, it runs just fine. I would like better control over tab discard. and maybe some way of limitting bloat. For instance, I would rather keep a lower number of undiscarded youtube that as they seem to be insanely bloated. In other cases, for most website I would like to never discard the contents. In my ideal world, I would like the tabs to get frozen and saved to disk permanently, rather than assuming discard tabs can be reloaded. As if the websites were going to exist forever and discarding a tab is like cleaning a cache.

It is extremely frustrating. I just wanted to evaluate the whole list one by one and not miss one. But no, it makes you click "more" every 10 items and then it wipes itself when you scroll back up. You win steam, I give up and won't buy anything, happy ?

Firefox interdimensionalmeme • 4 months ago • 81%

I don't like it when I go back to a tab and it reloads. For whatever reason, I want tabs to stop changing. I don't want the to reload from their javascript and I don't want the tab content to be deleted by the automatic discard (to save memory) If firefox decides to free memory, it should dump tab data and tab state to disk, not delete and reload from the website later. Sometimes the website won't exist later. Somewhat related but this one is hard : Some website dynamically delete content after you've scroll past it (firefox) this means even if you scroll to the "true" bottom, you can't ctrl+f search and you can't freeze the page and read it all at your leisure and preserve it for later. Currently my solution is to video screen capture the whole tab while scrolling slowly, this is quite a ridiculous step to take but apparently the only option to keep our data !?

And I really mean move, not copy. The difference between copy and move is that copy... copies, but move dies copy->verify->delete original, in a single operation of the user. Preferably, that is reliable. Meaning it checks the bookmarks have been successfully created before closing the related tab. Also it should be clear what bookmark folder it is going to put the tabs in. Because the current bookmark manager, it is easy to end up dumping all your tabs in the parent folder of tge destination you indented. Or end up creating an extra child folder inside your intended destination bookmark folder Would also be nice to have quality of life features, such as a default bookmark folder. The option to put the bookmarks in a folder named with today's date. Maybe an option to specify a default destination bookmarks folder on a per site domain basis

The select-after-closing-current addon is a way to pullout a random tab out of a window, which will not change the tab that was visible in that window. However, what it does is any closed tab, it will select the previously seen tab no matter what. The reason for my question, I would like to know if it is possible for the add-on to have a different behaviour for closed tabs from pulled out tabs. I wish, when I close a tab, to always select the tab to the right. But when I pullout a tab, I wish to always see the tab that was visible before the pullout.

There used to be an addon, "Open tabs from clipboard URLs" but I can't seem to find it anymore. The best I find now is, an addon that opens a box, then you paste your URLs in it, then you press a button. That's not what I want. I want a toolbar button, I press it, the tabs open. So that I can opens large blocks of URLs. Also, I would like another addon which opens large blocks of URLs but does not load them immediately. I have LoadOnSelect3 for this, but the problem with that one, is that it opens special moz:// pages until you load the tab. And that breaks searching and filtering tabs because the tab title and URL are not the real ones.

Tab Manager Plus Set to "Open in own tab by default" Set to "Dark mode" Set to "Vertical view" -- very important You can live search your tab titles to select them You can open all selected tabs in their own window You can close selected tabs You can "discard" tab contents (different from close, the tab is there but content is gone) You can highlight/select duplicate tabs You can hide not selected tabs You can pin selected tabs (unfortunately, they still only appear on the one window they are pinned to, they just get pinned to the left of the tab bar) You can drag and drop selected tabs to another window of your choice, both the representation of that window in the TMP tab, but also into the other firefox window itself. That means, drag and drop from here, is the same as pulling out a tab out of a normal firefox window ! Cannot search text inside of tabs, especially not sleeping tabs Sometimes I press the TMP button and I just get a bluegreen screen, doesn't work until I close many windows and tabs I would prefer real dark mode with my preferred colours I would like to easily drop&close tabs into bookmark folders reliably !

However, I will keep you guys around, for now ...

Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ interdimensionalmeme • 9 months ago • 100%

I remember there were websites specialized in app cracks over 10 years ago, but I fail to remember any of their names ! I've switched almost every software I use to open source and it's been a very long time since I've needed to look for a crack. In this case I actually bought this software. But when you start it, it confirms your right to the software via patreon. That really rubs me the wrong way. I don't mind staying subscribed and getting updates and new features. But these subscription deals allow the publisher to jack up the price to anything and take features away unilaterally. That's a big no for me. So, even if it's an older version, I rather run a cracked version (in a VM) than use this !

Hi, So, I wipe all cookies on every restart of firefox by default. However, there are a very very few cookies I would like to restore. And only to certain multi-account containers They are the session cookie to the few websites I login to. Because I'm annoyed to have to login again on every reboot. But I still want to wipe every other cookies they store. I tried to make a bookmarklet that can save the session cookie Example this javascript:(function() { function getCookie(name) { var value = "; " + document.cookie; var parts = value.split("; " + name + "="); if (parts.length == 2) return parts.pop().split(";").shift(); } var cookieValue = getCookie('session_id'); if (cookieValue) { var data = new Blob([`session_id=${cookieValue}`], {type: 'text/plain'}); var a = document.createElement('a'); a.style.display = 'none'; document.body.appendChild(a); var url = window.URL.createObjectURL(data); a.href = url; a.download = 'session_id.txt'; a.click(); window.URL.revokeObjectURL(url); } else { alert('Cookie "session_id" does not exist.'); } })(); Unfortunately, unlike regular cookies, this doesn't work and it returns the cookie doesn't exist. I would have made another bookmarklet which create a cookie from the file. What I really need is an addon that lets me specify which cookies to save and restory, in which multi-account container

So, I have a pretty big games collection on steam and the majority of these games are offline single player games. And sometimes I fear just losing access to all of them ! I had quit piracy entirely in the 2010s during the golden age of streaming, but now I'm increasingly alienated from it all. I could hunt down the crack for each and every single game I own but I would like to know, is there a better way ? Could I just crack my offline steam library and play my games offline forever ?

A user checking out one of these URLs does not want to filter only local post on that instance. On all instances, this url should mean "show me all /c/piracy on all federated instances" If you really mean /c/piracy only on that instance, then add something to the url. The current convention breaks the most important aspect of federation and makes its vestigial appendage. The current way has user asking question /c/piracy, but on which instance ? So now they'll all join the same instance . You wouldn't post anywhere else since no one would every see it. It's a recipe for centralization. I think this is obvious to most users, were deal with "voat with extra steps" here

For example, let's take the website github.com If you don't want to have to log in everytime you restart the browser, you have to whitelist the entire website as follows  But you would only need to whitelist the following cookies to do so. ``` on .github.com logged_in on github.com _device_id user_session __Host-user_session_same_site _gh_sess ``` I found an add-on called "Cookie Quick Manager" which is a great way to consult your cookies on a per-site basis, is container aware, it's great. In that add-on there was a "protect cookie" function  Unfortunately, it would only only protect cookies from getting deleted by "Cookie Quick Manager" and not firefox's "delete data when Firefox is closed" but that would have been a fantastically convenient way to handle this I think what would make sense would be the ability to append cookie name and container names to the "delete data when Firefox is closed" exception list So instead of just https://github.com You might be able to specify containername!cookiename@https://github.com With both the containername part and the cookiename part being optional limits to the whitelisting Here is a mockup of what that might look like

This is a big problem. It creates the illusion that /c/cats on one particular instance is the real /c/cats. This is the root of re-centralization and it must be pulled out.

Jerboa interdimensionalmeme • 1 year ago • 97%

Hi, If you're like me, your probably seeing a lot of stuff you've already seen in jerboa On Reddit this didn't happen because the site takes into account how many times a post was printed and the more you've seen it, the quicker it would disappear from your version of the front page. Now of course jerboa could and should do this, But I think there's two opportunities to make this better than Reddit. On one part, putting the squarely in control of the content discovery algorithm, next, solicit user input and ask him to lend a hand in the social sorting algorithm that is voting. So, a user voting sounds be a way to tell jerboa that "I've seen this" and it shouldn't show it anymore on my feed. To prevent bias, the neutral vote should be added. Next is giving the user more explicit control of the algorithm. When you vote up or down, you're sorting for the community but also for yourself. Jerboa should take into account user's voting pattern and recommend current based on what the user likes. These voting patterns should be publicly exchanged in "out of band" communication. Jerboa could then use these voting patterns to further help with content discovery in the following way. "My user likes X,Y,Z, after consulting public voting patterns, we can see that most users who like X,Y,Z often also like A,B,C and dislike I,J,K" This is how Netflix, YouTube and other algorithms find stuff you like. The difference is now, this runs on your computer. You can see your algorithm weights and edit them. Place extra filters on them and most important, swap , export, import algorithm sorting weights and exchange them with others users, craft them for specific usage and etc. Plus of course, basic function like chronological view that doesn't cheat or insert ads. Algorithmic content discovery under user control is going to be the biggest user benefit of switching to Lemmy versus a private commercial centralized platform. Our data will finally serve us !

example lemmy.ml/c/pics Would it be something like lemmy.ml/c/pics!all lemmy.ml/c/all/pics lemmy.ml/all/pics lemmy.ml/all/c/pics All.lemmy.ml/c/pics ?
