Hey @delta! Reading this https://delta.chat/en/2025-05-22-browser-edition got me thinking. I live in Firefox but miss Chrome’s one-click “Install PWA as app”. What about a Tauri-based helper + a Firefox extension that wraps a PWA into a desktop app in one step? Hosting stays light: the PWA is cached; relays/self-hosted instances can serve the client. Keeps control with admins. Interested? 👍🏻

edit: i cannot vouch for the extension i linked and no longer recommend it. when i extract it and look at its background.js, there's a lot of stuff that i can't explain and i am not comfortable with. sigh... but it seems like a good concept.
one of the things that concerns me about private windows / incognito windows is that you only get one session at a time. this is a downgrade from the isolation that firefox-based browsers offer you with container tabs, especially if you have a tracker-licious website open alongside something else in your private session.
Temporary Containers Plus is an interesting idea - with Automatic Mode, you get a new container per tab: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/temporary-containers-plus

came across a nice browser add-on that disables the generation of AI overviews in search engines like duckduckgo: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/disable-ai/
super useful if you don't keep site data across sessions or if you mostly browse in private windows.
for firefox / librewolf / whatever.

What the fucking fuck that #Chrome doesn't support `background.scripts` in its Manifest v3 for #WebExtensions.
That is stupid.
If you wanna know why I haven't released BlogCat for Google Chrome and by consequence for Vivaldi, Edge and the other Chromiums, it is because of that.

I'm developing a Chrome extension#Chrome only? I thought the whole idea of this #WebExtensions ordeal was to make addons work across browsers. At the very least it would make sense to target the free software version of #Chromium rather than picking the proprietary binary-only release of Chrome.
I'll invite you to the private GitHub repositoryNothing on that proprietary platform is "private", its just not indexable by the paupers. If you want data to be private, don't share it with a proprietary mega corpo known for plagiarizing anything they can get their hands on to "train" their LLM.

Any browser extension gurus able to help me figure this out?
I have an extension and I'm creating two context menu items via two separate calls to the 'chrome.contextMenus.create' method and by default it will stick those two items under a top level menu and I have not been able to find an easy way to say "don't do that" and keep both items as top level choices in the context menu.
I'm doing this in Firefox but using chrome to be cross-browser compatible.

Let's not forget that the #web is made for people, not website owners and companies. Browser extensions should help people.
The #Chromium update that drops #WebExtensions v2 is finally here. A sad day for the open Internet.
Is there a user CSS styles extension like Stylus that does not request access to all websites but allows opting in on case-by-case basis? #Stylus #UserStyles #web #CSS #WebExtensions
Ok. Just culled ~20,000 of 25,000 #tumblr posts accumulated via #RSS over a month. I've gotta get to work on my own project applying basic statistics to this stuff. Think "reverse chronological + $all_your_own_filtering_and_sorting_and_bucketing". Not sure if I should do that within the confines of a #thunderbird add-on, or try some other approach. I really, really want to be able to use #sql for this stuff. It's a natural fit. But #sqlite seems to be a no-go for #WebExtensions. There is only #IndexedDB, which, in my limited experience with it, is absolute garbage to work with.

Поддержка webextensions под Андроид, вторая серия
Очень добрый день! Меня зовут Тимур и я программист. Сегодня я хочу продолжить разговор о поддержке расширений браузера (хромиум) на Андроид. В прошлой своей статье я рассказал о том что у меня получилось завести расширения но народ так занят стенаниями по поводу закрытия проекта Kiwi что никто особо на это внимания не обратил, поэтому буду краток, это скорее промежуточный отчет чем анонс.
Lots of great #WebExtensions features and fixes just went out with #Safari 18.4 for #macOS 15.4, #iOS 18.4, and #visionOS 2.4 — including new WebKit APIs, temporary installs on macOS, and support for Developer ID–signed apps.
