Okay, so elementary OS 8.1 is installed on my laptop and I'm gonna try and see if I can use the web browser the web browser that comes with elementary, which is Epiphany, aka GNOME Web, as my main. I have a feeling it's gonna be rather complicated but I want to give it a real shot.
If @elementary or anyone else has any piece of advice to give, I'd love to hear it. :abunhdhappy:
Hierophanies / Ierofanie ✨🍁💫
✨Hierophany = Epiphany

The sacred transcends the profane.

Quand on ouvre Gnome web, on peut être visuellement agressé par une page blanche alors qu'on est en mode sombre.
Idem quand on ouvre un nouvel onglet.
Le problème vient a priori du css dans la page web, le schéma de couleurs est déclaré dans le <body> alors qu'il devrait l'être dans l'élément racine (<html>)

Donc oui aujourd'hui j'utilise des forks de #Firefox ( @librewolf et @zenbrowser ) je regarde du côté des projets qui se sont éloignés de Mozilla il y a un moment (@Waterfox et @palemoon )
J'utilise de + en + #Epiphany #GnomeWeb (webkit).
Et oui, c'est la PREMIÈRE FOIS EN 25 ANS de « vie informatique » que je lorgne vers une application privatrice ( @Vivaldi )
"Epiphany" by J.V. Gachs is a mystery featuring a pregnant woman whose attempt to investigate her dead wife's hanging leads her to an unbelievable conclusion. #bookrecommendations #tbrlist #thriller #mystery #epiphany #jvgachs
Another thing ive noticed is holy fucking shit #GNOME Web (or #epiphany ) thats bundled is SO much better then the Flatpak and Arch version I tried.
Websites load more or less as quick as Firefox, Youtube works (and ads are properly blocked!) and ive not had any rendering issues thus far (on my Nvidia 3060Ti).
Since Mozilla is shitting the bed, GNOME Web might actually be my new home after a year of trying it on and off
Opinión impopular: #Midori (el viejo, que venía por defecto en Elementary) #Epiphany y #Konqueror, están en la cúspide del diseño sencillo y utilidad. Sin pretensiones.
Cumplen con los criterios platónicos de Verdad, Belleza y Bondad. Y cumplen con la filosofía UNIX: haz una cosa y hazla bien.
No #Christmas prayers from me, I'm afraid, due to illness. But I have posted prayers for the Sunday after Christmas and (a bit early), prayers for #Epiphany, which will be useful if the Wise Men are a focus for Christmas #worship

Opening Prayers for Epiphany of the Lord, Years A, B and C
Part of a series of opening prayers for Sundays in the Revised Common Lectionary. They take their inspiration from the Scripture readings in the Lectionary. Worship leaders are welcome to use them for worship, but if you print or display any part of them, please credit the author. Comments welcome.
The following prayers are for based on the readings for the Epiphany of the Lord Year A, where the Gospel is the story of the Wise Men. Where this is not a Sunday you may wish to transfer it to the previous Sunday or the next Sunday. Alternatively, you might wish to preach on the passage during the Christmas season. You could also use these prayers for the First Sunday after Christmas Day in Year A, when the Gospel passage is the second half of Matthew 2 (see here for other prayers for Christmas 1 Year A).
The prayers are based on Isaiah 60:1-6, Psalm 72:1-7, 10-14, Ephesians 3:1-12 and Matthew 2:1-12. The readings are the same for all three years.
Call to worship
Lift up your eyes, and look around!
God’s people are gathering.
cf Psalm 60.4
So let us worship God.
Prayer of Approach
Lord of light,
we praise you,
for you are the one who casts away the darkness
which covers our lives, and our world.
Yours is the light which illuminates that which is good
in all the nations of the world.
In this time of worship
we lift our eyes to your light.
We rejoice in your glory
and in the mystery of the salvation of the world
you have brought through Jesus Christ.
As the Wise Men came seeking the Christ Child
kindle within us a desire to seek him anew
and to make new discoveries
of his truth and his glory.
May the Star of Bethlehem
lead us to worship the Light of the World.
As the Wise Men came seeking the Christ Child
kindle within us a desire to seek him anew
and to make new discoveries
of his truth and his glory.
May the Star of Bethlehem
lead us to worship the Light of the World.
Confession
God of infinite grace,
in the gift you gave us at Bethlehem
you offer us the boundless riches of Christ.
Yet we are slow to offer all that we have.
The Wise Men left home to seek the truth;
but we are too often content to stay where we are comfortable.
King Herod claimed he wanted to worship the child;
and too often, we are taken in by plausible lies.
We ask for your forgiveness
for all the ways we fall short
in generosity,
in courage,
and in failing to seek and to heed your truth.
Give us time to amend our lives
and may your Spirit to enable us
to live more fully
in the light of your Word made flesh.
silence
Supplication
What shall we give you, O Lord
for all that you have given us in Jesus Christ?
The wealth of all nations would not be sufficient!
In the bleak midwinter,
the Wise Men brought their gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
So what may we bring you, poor as we are?
What else, but a heart to follow Jesus!
So grant us boldness and confidence
in our faith in the promises of Jesus.
Give us the courage to take another road
if that is where you are leading us on our journey of life.
And may we thrill and rejoice
as your light dawns on us anew every day.
We pray this in the name of Jesus Christ,
the Light of the World. Amen.
Dismissal and Blessing
Go in peace,
and may Christ be a bright flame before you,
a guiding star above you,
a kindly shepherd behind you,
and supporting strength beneath you;
based on a blessing attributed to St Columba of Iona
The blessing of God,
Father, Son and Holy Spirit,
be with you all.

Epiphany: The Moment of Realization in Storytelling.

#bugReport #Epiphany #webBrowser
The out of the box browser crashes some times while having several tabs open, writing answers and trying to change the language.
Also:
The bad preset by #mastodon and or the browser to reload the page is not only disturbing but might interfere, as well as the more than questionable intent to set the language some how by the software.
Work around as of now is to be stubborn, click away the crash message "wait, close cancel or go on" and work on until settings are solved and message is sent. Open a new tab in the same window of any other message or link inside the website and close the "broken" tab.
Recommendation as of now:
* Don't open several tabs.
* Be stubborn and concentrated.
* Find out how to get rid of annoying and hurtful programing like page updates and automatic language settings.
Screens saved and ready for review.

Noise is borrowed. Signal is lived. Force bends us to others’ rules; power flows when we trust our own.
Reflecting today, I noticed how often we listen to noise — the judgments of others — instead of the quiet signal of intuition.
A parent posted here that their child said they “use the embarrassed smile emoji wrong,” and mention they overuse it. But is that true reflection, or just force disguised as feedback?
David Hawkins, in *Power vs. Force*, reminds us that force is external, demanding conformity, while power arises from authenticity.
Even an “overused emoji” isn’t wrong — it’s simply expression. When we stop policing ourselves through borrowed judgments, we reclaim power.
Noise fades. Signal endures. Listen inward.

@SiRrogueKnight@noauthority.social @fkq1q2r2@noauthority.social @Vox@noauthority.social Consider that all "realists" are brainwashed fools and perhaps you will wise up. #epiphany
Oh wow, #groundbreaking #epiphany here: building agents is messy! 🤔 Who would've guessed that in 2025, #coding #tools still collapse like a house of cards and caching isn't a one-size-fits-all solution? 🚀 But hey, at least we learned that #shared #state isn't a totally useless relic. Keep fighting the good fight, Armin! 🧙♂️
