The template of this meme is that of the man who cheerfully points his hand at a butterfly, asking “Is this a pigeon”?. In this meme, the man has been covered with icons of the applications IntelliJ, VSCode, Chromium and Signal. The butterfly which he points to is overlaid with the caption “.config”. He asks “Is this a trash can?” At the bottom of the image, we see the command du -sh executed on the directories .config/chromium/ and .config/Code, yielding file sizes of 1016M and 83M respectively.

    I’m surprised. I haven’t had a website not work with Firefox for a long time. I haven’t even had to install chromium as a backup in almost two years now.

      I actually use chromium to do watch party’s. As you can disable hardware acceleration and for some reason the Netflix DRM doesn’t work anymore. (So I can stream the video to friends on dc)

      But otherwise I never had problems with Firefox.

      Proxmox, when connected to a host, will not see symbols and instead type the numbers instead (shift+1 etc). But it will still type a character, and it’s hidden from the user, so you end up screaming WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THIS MOTHERFUCKING PIECE OF SHIT until you try to sudo in fucking chrome and whoop works first try.

      Found that like 9 months ago. Still pissed as fuck. Like 2h of my life gone, thought I fucked my root account, fucking pissing myself trying to copy data off before I do anything in case I was fucked.

      PM needs to fix their shit.

      E: Oh, cpanel recently broke too. I can login, but am immediately logged out because lack of a security token. That one might be because I’m using librewolf, but it was working a month ago so…

      E2: synology, both nas and router, works sometimes in LW, but other times it loads the page but no content. This is regardless of if I am logged in and refresh, or if I’m just trying to login. Shit just doesn’t reliably work. Chrome, it’s fine.

      Just yesterday I had shadow.tech’s Cloudflare “vErIFY yOuR hUmAN” fail on me in Firefox. I had fucking paid for a month already otherwise that would have been enough to turn me off.

      I haven’t had a website not work with Firefox for a long time.

      Me too…mostly? But the cases I’ve seen or encountered are always government, financial, education, or medical websites with some super-bespoke “portal” that will simply act bizarre on Firefox.

      It really sucks that it seems so common to just glance at some “market-share” data and, not just assume everybody must use Chrome, but go so far as to force them to.

      They are out there. I also have it around for those occasions. More common that you’d expect. Almost always some shitty site needed for work that has problems.

        Oh yeah that reminds me, to use the Graphene web installer, you need chrome. To revert to factory, chrome.
