@ruckus What does zscaler do?
@ruckus
You do the same, this is Firefox tweak, not OS dependant
@supernova But yes, its regarding Chrome sabotaging other browsers.
@supernova
This article is new, but I saw post on Twitter more than half year ago how to fix this in about:config. Todays toot by @BurungHantu reminded me to share this tweak.
@BurungHantu
Invidio.us is even better, because it can bypass country/age restriction of video being played
@Mayana
So you can make their experience faster, as good friend/family member.
@Mayana
Yes, thats even better alternative. This is for people that have friends/family that use same computer and only know for YouTube.
@Wetrix
Its true, too many distros. I would be happy if they made them compatible with any Linux distro, I guess popular Debian based like Ubuntu or Linux Mint should be a good start.
Old Youtube layout should be loaded, much faster. This is what it looks like with Stylus addon for dark theme:
If you are using Firefox and YouTube seems slow to load you can speed it up (up to 5x) with this tweak in about:config.
-Open new tab and enter about:config (accept if prompted for warranty risk)
-Right click on any preference and go New>String
>As preference name copy/paste:
general.useragent.override.youtube.com
As preference value copy/paste:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:41.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/41.0
For darkmode you can install Stylus addon and pick theme you like.

Yes, I tried also foss CAD software, they have a long way to go to compete with AutoCAD. I agree with everything you said, I guess we have to wait for larger user base, which I think is growing steadily.
@blacklight447
Yes, I buy what I support, why whould I buy something I don't support? Don't see your point.
@blacklight447
Sorry, I don't get it. What do you mean by "vote with your wallet"?
What annoys me most is that engineering software companies are not interested enough in making compatible software with Linux. My brother as electrical, some of my friends as mechanical and me as civil engineer are stuck with Windows for any kind of work, and people call Windows alive only because of gameing. Why is that the case I have no idea, maybe user base is not large enough for them to make money. And I'm willing to pay for some work software that is compatible with Linux.
@Mayana Everything @one said and also:
->250GB total encrypted storage (personal, team)
-Proven identities are anchored on bitcoin blockchain, and your device names
-Public folder which can be used to host static site, or other files
-Stellar cryptocurrency wallet which is used to send/receive coins
-Encrypted personal/team git repository
A little rant about Signal
@canony You can use this with your old sim card to be sure noone registers other phone with it.

A little rant about Signal
@canony As I said, Signal works with number you registered your phone with. That means that you can use your first sim card to register your phone with, and insert other sim card without registering Signal with it. Signal will use phone number of your old sim card for IM (not SMS) and you can use your new sim card for calls, sms etc. Would that solve your problem? No need to tell your friends your new phone number.
