Well... I know it's chromium, but I have to admit Vivaldi is easily my favorite browser. It's got a bunch of fairly unique features that I just can't live without. It's got tabs within tabs, tab tiling, a whole side car for websites that you can display while working on whatever Web page you need (works great for social media, music, messaging). I don't have a link, but maybe worth checking it out.

tabs within tabs

I use the Firefox "Tab Groups" Extension to get a similar result and I have to agree, it is so nice to keep order

I prefer the Firefox "Tab Groups" Feature actually because I feel it's more comfortable / has a more clear separation AND:

It automatically freezes tabs and integrates with containers (kind of like browser profiles on Chromium but in the same Window)

is there a way to force dark mode like in chromium? #enable-force-dark has been a life saver for me. I have a TBI and white screens are physically painful. I keep trying to go back to FireFox, but none of the darkmode addons seem to have this kind of always on, no exceptions kind of feature

i have the same issue you have, bright screens are the worst (i hated visiting wikipedia). try this addon in firefox. instead of messing with the colors and the contrast of the page, it rather puts an dark overlay over the entire page, reducing the brightness and preserving the look.

well see now I am in a pickle. Do I go to the webpage that does not allow itself to be accessible and lose a day of my life to drugs and bed. or just keep using what I am using.

So, you haven't used the "Dark Reader" extension on Firefox. It has "automatic", "scheduled", "system default" options. Also you can disable or enable dark mode for specific websites.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I don't need the ability to disable I need it to be always on no matter what. This is exactly the extention I was complaining about. This one doesnt work on extentions.firefox.org

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago (2 children)

There are no addons at all that can change the look of the firefox extension page; it is protected by the browser.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

That is why I can't use firefox it is not accessible. My disability is not taken seriously by the Mozilla Foundation.

download Librewolf

Look inside

It's Firefox but with good defaults and configs

:3

[–] [email protected] -1 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (2 children)

Qutebrowser and (maybe, haven't tried) Falkon can use qtwebkit as a backend

luakit, surf, otter, epiphany, badwolf, vimb use gtkwebkit

lynx, links, elinks, w3m, netsurf use their own browser engines

there's also 😒 f*refox 😒 and its forks, if you need cancer like css, js, webrtc, or wasm

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 months ago

I can understand the objections to wasm and even JS, but CSS? c’mon bro…

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

cancer like css and js

what kind of websites are you visiting that don't use either of those?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Likely some old web tier stuff...

If you're not a fan of Firefox right now, with the few odd decisions they've been making, try Floorp or Zen. They're quite good forks of Firefox and don't seem to have any of the recent Firefox oddness in them.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

Someone mentioned Zen on the endeavor forums the other day. I've switched to Zen Optimized as my daily driver and I've been pleasantly surprised by how much I like it. I'm not a keyboard shortcuts kinda guy but you do need to learn the tab manipulation shortcuts or it'll drain your sanity right clicking on the icons to close tabs.

I shall not stoop so low as to using a browser named ""floorp"".
