Double click to select text not working (lemmy.world)

Just switched from Librewolf Flatpak to the rpm. Now double click to select text doesn't work. To select text, I need to drag my cursor over the text to be selected while holding left click. Is there any way to fix this?

Strange sudden issue rendering pages (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

submitted 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

2 comments fedilink

Two days ago, LW started behaving very oddly. It suddenly stopped rendering pages - but only on some sites. For example, the default Lemmy skin is fine but the Alexandrite skin is not. The BBC website doesn't work either. A few others seemingly totally random.

The domain resolves and it makes the initial connection and then it takes up to a minute of doing nothing and then just craps out, unable to render the page. Checking the Inspector reveals no errors or warnings and the network inspector is making a connection but not loading anything other than headers and basic tags.

The page presents no errors it just shows a blank screen. <html> <head> and <body> tags load but nothing else.

All these pages work fine in all other browsers I've tested in (floorp, Mullvad, vanilla FFox and Brave).

Details: LibreWolf 128.0-2 (flatpak) on LMDE (Faye).

Any clues, pointers or advice very gratefully received. I love the browser and have it set up just how I like it so don't really want to switch to another.

@librewolf Cannot login to sncf-connect.com

I'm using LibreWolf since a few days, and I love it ! But when I try to login to sncf-connect.com I get bloqued. I've added this domain to the exceptions, as well as monidentifiant.sncf. When I login, I get a captcha, and after solving it, I a bloqued... Am I missing an option to allow this website to work ? Thanks !

Thank you! ALSA works again without pulseaudio in 129.0.1-1 (lemmy.world)

I almost gave up and uninstalled Librewolf. For a full month but now I just want to say thank you for restoring ALSA again. For some reason it was disabled in version 128 and required Pulseaudio in order to work. which requires sudo in my case, and that caused me huge grief.

It's weird that the default homepage doesn't have the LibreWolf logo. It would make sense, right?

Hello I use librewolf on arch. I have installed it from flatpak. The sounds does not play when I play a music or video in LW. The laptop does not have any software or hardware problem because I can open musics or videos with any problem in other apps. What could be the problem?

Librewolf Caps Lock Treated Like Shift - Keyboard Shortcuts Not Working (lemmy.ml)

submitted 1 month ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

5 comments fedilink

I'm new here and am not sure if this is the right place to post a question about Librewolf. I found this area from the Librewolf site when trying to find a support forum of sorts. If this is not the place then I apologize and will know for in future.

I've found that my custom shortcuts on a website I built, no longer work as expected. For some reason, when I type "s" with the caps lock key on, it is treated as if I had typed "shift" + "s" to give the capital "S". This would normally be fine, but my site has shift + s treated as my "save" shortcut in Javascript, because ctrl + s triggers the browsers save page functionality. My custom shortcut works in traditional Firefox, but not Librewolf. Is there a reason that the caps-lock key converts the key events to as if we were holding down shift? Is there a way to disable this?

I foggily remember that I didn't like it displaying 'Manage bookmarks' when there were no bookmarks. I guess I feel that way because I hadn't had enough sleep.

Why are ctrl+alt+ shortcuts blocked in librewolf (rfp) (lemmy.ml)

submitted 1 month ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

4 comments fedilink

I've written a web app that uses ctrl+alt+ shortcuts because they don't interfere with the many expected ctrl- shortcuts. Librewolf blocks these shortcuts because of RFP, apparently. As a result I have to disable RFP for my site (or just be annoyed all the time), and I guess I'll have to advise my users to do the same.

I haven't found any doc that explicitly discusses the justification for disabling alt shortcuts. There is a bug about how ctrl- was broken for a while. This page doesn't mention alt either, that I can find.

I can guess that it probably allows identifying some keyboards somehow. Just would like to read up on it so I can at least understand what the issues are with the alt key.

How to set timezone without disabling ResistFingerprinting (lemmy.ca)

submitted 1 month ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

5 comments fedilink

I recently migrated to Librewolf from Firefox due to Mozilla's recent blunder of covertly adding adware to their browser.

I like the ResistFingerprinting feature for added privacy, but enabling it seems to set my browser time to GMT instead of ET, with most times on webpages (which refer to browser time) ahead by several hours as a result.

Can I define my desired timezone in the browser settings so I don't have to pick one or the other between a correct browser time and better privacy? TIA :D!

How to make LibreWolf keep history indefinitely? (mander.xyz)

submitted 1 month ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

3 comments fedilink

Is there a setting that can allow me to keep browsing history on LibreWolf "forever", i.e. without it expiring and getting dumped after some time?

It's not in the settings, but I'm willing to dive into about:config to do it.

Hi!

I was wondering if there is a way to update LibreWolf settings (those you can override) from LibreWolf itself, or I have to wait until a new release.

Thanks!
