What’s wrong with open in Microsoft edge and no tabs?
Its hard to put “bad Addons” from cringe to wtf to evil-corp into one pot.
Why would you do that. This would 1. mean you are using Windows 2. Use this browser that is not more secure than Firefox Flatpak and tracks users.
If you want Videocalls, simply use an unhardened Firefox profile. “What is a profile?” If you dont know that, you dont need them as EVERYTHING will just work (WebGL, WebRTC, no fingerprinting resistance).
And normal websites should ALL work even on Arkenfox + Noscript.
This is so much how the Windows Explorer feels after using a capable File Manager like basically every on Linux.
MAYBE your OS has some fancy way its way better having several windows open that having a few small rectangle carts at the top. But I dont think that.
Haha okay, until recently I had 949 Tabs open.
But anyways. Autodeleting tabs for minimalism? I get that. Not using tabs at all?? The “Windows way”?? No damn way. Even Microsoft got it now in their damn slow Explorer.
These are just functionality you don’t want which they also say they do, nothing seems to be wrong with the addons themselves… I could say the both for a bee theme on the marketplace and put it in cursed if that’s really the reason
No they dont offer functionality I dont want. Security? Privacy? Of course! They do false promises and trick users that… you know have an Antivirus program on their system.
How do these extensions do that? I’m not sure what you mean, I tried it and later uninstalled it a few days ago and saw nothing wrong… The open in edge extension literally just adds the edge protocol in front of the link
Haha I guess the open in edge addon has nothing wrong in its code.
open in microsoft edge could technically be used to open in any chromium browser…
I use an extension in edge for opening things in Firefox, by the same guy. It can technically run any command on your system, but requires a daemon on your computer to do so
