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.
Well dont use chrom*
I use ungoogled chromium, but only for sites that absolutelly don’y wanna work on firefox.
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’m taking an online based college that makes heavy use of some heavier apps like web based virtual machines that function as ‘lab environments’ for development assignments. These refuse to function unless I’m in chromium of some kind. Same with the online based proctoring tools the school uses when you take tests n stuff - chrome is the only browser that can be used, and I have to specifically use a windows device 🤢
Always fun to see what I’ve been “missing out on” in the chrome experience, when I’m forced to use it. Man, the Firefox UX is a dream compared to chrome!
Really hoping on that FOSS browser that’s on the horizon! Ladybird, I think it’s called? Hopefully it won’t be shit! 🤞
The signal community should band together and write a signal client that doesn’t use the waste of space called electron. There is a rust library for signal and slint for cross platform UIs. Slint is even working (slowly) on mobile targets

There already is one called Flare. It uses rust IIRC.

What’s wrong with Flatpak? I like the separation of system packages with the system package manager, and user-level random apps on Flatpak.
If you like it then use it, but let’s not pretend everyone else likes it and link to Flathub instead if project site.
Yeah 100% agree you should link to the project site, not Flathub.
Well you do use files named chrome.css, as Firefox based browsers have their style css in that.
Fun fact: Unrelated to the browser of the same name, it’s the “window chrome” of the browser
