Would love to know if there's anything like Firefox Containers in other browsers, particularly @Vivaldi@social.vivaldi.net . @samuelsantaella@masto.nyc @lauren@mastodon.laurenweinstein.org @Vivaldi@social.vivaldi.net @Vivaldi@social.vivaldi.net is a very good browser, i love it

However, there are three that seem to kill most of the AI activity at the UI level, but what's going on in the background I of course can't see. By the way, Firefox is also hiding http: and https:, a terrible decision that Google tried and reversed years ago. You can disable this in Firefox about:config as well. To cripple Firefox AI:</p><p>Go to URL about:config</p><p>Set these to "false":</p><p>browser.ml.chat.enabled<br />extensions.ml.enabled</p><p>These stop Firefox from attempting to create link preview "key points" AI garbage from reading your page. Also:</p><p>Setting to false:</p><p>browser.ml.linkPreview.enabled</p><p>Will turn off the annoying link preview behavior entirely.</p><p>I will note that this behavior by Mozilla is actually far more invasive than what Chrome currently does.</p><p>Hey Mozilla: Take your damned AI and shove it where the sun doesn't shine.</p><p>L</p> @lauren@mastodon.laurenweinstein.org simple, don't use Firefox anymore, with the fall of Mozilla as a benchmark for an egalitarian website, Firefox has also been falling, which has gone from being the best browser to one of the worst these days
