From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Not sure if you can use rust to write browser plugins, but I really want a plugin that when you right click a link, you have to option to open the link with javascript disabled. Chrome or Firefox.
Extensions are in Javascript.
Well damn. Isn't that just ripe.
Opening a link in Firefox reader mode would be pretty cool!
I'll try looking to see how easy it is to create an extension

Edit: maybe this extension can be used https://webextension.org/listing/chrome-reader-view.html
I will take a look, thanks! And I got a huge ad right at the top of the page, how apropos.
