   My good friend @janethemotherfucker recently nudged me to try out LibreWolf, and I must say, I rather like it:

   https://librewolf.net/

   I built it from source on my Debian Bookworm machine, which was somewhat inconvenient; for example, I also had to manually updated rustc/cargo.

   I must say again, I do quite like LibreWolf. It's basically Firefox but with all the telemetry/spyware crap removed, and with lots of security hardening enabled by default.

   It also comes with Ublock Origin by default.

   But I just found myself blown away by how much he assumed that I must have certain beliefs and life ways in common, simply by default.

   It must be a hell of a thing to walk through life with those assumptions.

   I've had a few folks ask me how I make https://www.thestopbits.net load so quickly.

   It's a boring answer: it's tiny.

   There's almost nothing you download when you visit. There's no JavaScript and we use whatever font you have as the default.

   It's not a trick, it's just how things used to be. It has to load on a 28.8 modem, so on your modern machine it's going to feel zippy.

   Modern websites can feel zippy too.

   Rationing out the space is both ableist and car-centrist. It says that disabled people's needs are "special" and must be rationed & policed by the university's Disabled Students Center & Disability Management Services and UC Davis TAPS...not that UC has multiple legal and moral obligations to make things accessible by default.

   It also says that space must be maximized for drivers - 7/?

   Just checked and yes, the screen reader is still broken in Fedora 40. (Cannot be controlled; keyboard shortcuts/modifier key doesn’t work.)

   So this is yet another release where the screen reader is broken by default.

   It’s amazing to be that this is not a showstopper.

   @pkal that discussion about clojure-mode on Emacs mail list, was truly surprising.

   The suggestion, to include clojure-mode by default, made no sense.

   What was shocking is that Emacs core devs were shocked that nobody (who writes Clojure) wanted the mode bundled in Emacs by default.

   It seems to me that there is a whole world of Emacs out there, that Emacs core is unaware of.

   With Emacs “distros”*, people aren’t only unaware but they don’t care about Emacs defaults.
