  • It’s probably related to this: https://gitlab.com/relan/fennecbuild/-/merge_requests/63

    F-droid Fennec had build problems lately due to google removing big dependencies from its android package repo or whatever, so it’s well out of date for now. The latest version there has at least that one well-known security problem that was in the news a few weeks ago. I don’t know why you’re getting notified about it now, I have it installed and didn’t see that. But if you’re risk-averse then you probably shouldn’t currently be using it to visit websites that might be malicious.

    Recent comments over there suggest that progress is being made at last.














  • The discourse about Mozilla is ridiculous, here and most everywhere. You’ve got people taking every perceived opportunity to attack them for things they do, things they didn’t do, and things it’s imagined they might’ve done. And then another crowd of equally determined people doggedly defending them for every idiotic blunder they make, such as this one.

    Meanwhile Mozilla itself has nothing substantial to say. This is not the first time a prominent extension has mysteriously gone missing from amo with Mozilla telling us nothing about its role in the incident. @mozilla@mozilla.social needs to be in the discussion giving us a real explanation of what happened, why they got it wrong, and what they’re doing to improve things.

    Maybe some day after we’re done replacing X11 people will collectively find the will to do something about systemd before it gets too much worse. I wonder which will be easier: Throw it all out and start again, or split it up into parts of more manageable size with well-defined interfaces between them.
