Technology
A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Browser: Firefox, gonna name stuff i don't see mentioned yet
'Multi Account Containers' + 'Container Tabs Sidebar' + 'Switch Container' + 'Temporary Containers' + ~~'don't care about cookies'~~ 'Consent-o-matic'
basically allows you to easily have multiple accounts on websites while also making sure everything stays contained to its own bubble, and anything I don't have a dedicated container for gets a temporary container that deletes the cookies after a bit ~~in order for me to both not care about cookies and also not get any cookies.~~ at this point mostly because I don't like accidentally having an account on a non-contained instance
ff2mpv - easily launch videos in mpv, requires a bit of setup
Image Search Options - finding the source of most drawings, spotting which anime a clip is from etc
Yomichan for quick access to locally installed dictionaries (for Japanese in this case)
Toggle Clipboard
I use Firefox and the arkenfox user.js, which is not an extension, but helps with privacy. For the extensions, though, they are as follows:
- uBlock Origin // on medium mode (Check out what blocking modes are if you don't know them already)
- LibRedirect // to redirect to more privacy respecting frontends
- Skip Redirect // for increased privacy in terms of redirects
- Smart Referer // on strict mode. I use this as I have set network.http.referer.XOriginPolicy to 0 as 2 was a little too strict for me
I think more extensions than these would probably hurt my setup. I have followed the advice from the arkenfox wiki. Check it out if you want to look into a more private and secure Firefox configuration. Also feel free to criticize or ask questions about my setup :)
- uBlock Origin
Important. I've added the Bypass Paywalls-filter as well, which makes browsing a lot more pleasant.
- SponsorBlock
I will not watch ads, not even one.
- I still don't care about cookies
This removes most of the annoyance of cookie banners and consent dialogs
- Redirect AMP to HTML
AMP sucks, rather not even see it
- Libredirect
A recent favorite - I started using this as Twitter on web was becoming increasingly unusable, and Nitter is a fine alternative. Now I use it for Twitter, TikTok, Imgur, Medium and Reddit.

The only one I use that wasn't mentioned yet is unpaywall, for finding scientific articles in open databases.
Vinegar on safari for iOS / macOS is probably the extension I find the most useful day to day. It replaces the usual YouTube video player with a standard html5 player. So no ads, and support for PiP.
