NoScript for Dillo makes no sense as it doesn't support JS anyway. uBlock... yeah, a little, but most annoyances will be blocked by the lack of JS support anyway.

Plus there are plugins for dillo... https://dillo-browser.github.io/#plugins

The plugins for Dillo are only protocol plugins; there are no file format plugins and no other kinds of plugins. However, I mentioned they should implement file format plugins too; other people also wanted this, and it does seem to be wanted enough that they might do it. (Other plugins will be more complicated to consider how to support it)

Exactly. I need 1Password and a vim mode plugin for me to be productive on the web.

Same, bitwarden is essential, as are ublock origin and privacy guard.

I second Bitwarden, ublock origin and privacy guard.

Also: how will you handle bookmarks? IMHO only Chrome does a good job with bookmarks — please copy them instead of reinventing the wheel.

What does Chrome do better than FF with bookmarks?
Re:Welcome to Ladybird, a truly independent web browser by dotcoma on Wednesday July 03, 2024 @02:39PM (#40868829)
The interface to move them around, create and move folders etc.

If I had to use bookmarks on FF, I would simply not use them at all.

I tried the bookmark bar and could find no difference. The bookmark manager for FF seems far more advanced, with Chrome going the simplicity, beauty, and lack of information route.

I use bookmarks heavily.

Really ?

Here are bookmarks on FF-based Mullvad Browser

(I stopped using FF proper a long time ago)

Here are bookmarks on Chromium-based Iridium browser

Where does it look easier to manage bookmarks ?

As I said, style over substance is indeed what chrome offers. Can’t even see the damn URLs at a glance.

So, on what "substance" does FF beat Chrome on bookmarks ?

You keep not reading my comments, why ask questions?
