You can turn them off, but good luck keeping firefox up to date.

Yeah but at this point you're fighting against the OS, might as well switch to a distro that already works the way you want.

[-] cevn@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Yea… switching requires work though. I got enough of that already :D

Sure, that's why I endured Canonical's BS for almost a year, but when I started my new job I just installed Arch even though Ubuntu was the "safe" choice.

[-] nottheengineer@feddit.de 9 points 1 year ago

Ah yes, vendor lock-in in desktop linux.

I don't get why anyone thinks this is acceptable in any way.

[-] cevn@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I kinda hate it, but I’m also too lazy to switch on my main desktop. Every new install gets Fedora though.

Or just use Waterfox or LibreWolf?

Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!
