    Why I should make a guide is because I forget things like this. This cargo works for me.

    Also, I did just push this, since your OS is Windows Vista, maybe you're interested.

    bug r3dfox 127

    On some sites the fonts are gray and make it difficult to read

    126 is ok correct
    [ img ]

    127 and 127.0.1 is not correct
    [ img ]


    tested on this site https://sempreupdate.com.br/
    Why are the fonts funny in version 127 and the font colors instead of being black get this horrible gray color?
    Is it only 1 or another site that this happens, 90% works perfect

    Not sure what the issue is here. I tried Mypal 68 and Firefox 115 ESR and they both have the same issue. I assume this is a site problem. Would be curious what upstream 127 looks like though.

    Do you use just stock Rust 1.77.2 right now or build it in some custom way?

    I don't have access to the computer which I would be building this right now, just asking

    It's basically stock for release 128. I built it myself so I wouldn't need to use a nightly for -Z compile flags. You can use 2024-02-04 nightly but it is a bit slower to build.

    Tip for going back to the old Clear History dialog box: in about:config set privacy.sanitize.useOldClearHistoryDialog to true.
    You can also check the privacy.clearOnShutdown_v2.* options.


    On a side note, with any version number above 115 you shouldn't use anymore an user agent with "Windows NT 6.1" in it, it must be "Windows NT 10.0" like this:
    Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:128.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/128.0

    Because recent versions are not suppposed to run on Windows 7 and 8, some sites are checking that and will deny access if the user agent is not valid ;)

    r3dfox starting with 128 has it's own useragent that includes r3dfox/(version). If any site is pissy about it, tell me and I can give it an override.

    In R3dfox 128.0-2 the Website Advertising Preferences section is missing in Privacy & Security:
    https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/privacy-preserving-attribution

    If you intentionally removed it then set dom.private-attribution.submission.enabled to false by default ;-)

    I didn't intentionally remove it, it's just not there. I'll make the pref change, but I might wait for 128.0.1 to make a new build.

    very cool these themes because there is more useful screen for those who have 900p monitor, leaving more screen for pages


    [ img ]

    Small bug found the "Standard" option does not work can press 100x that it does not put r3dfox as the default browser
    Next Version if you can solve this

    It works on my VM. I wonder if uninstalling and reinstalling would fix.

    Hmm, it might need the installer to make the associations for making default. Maybe install it to your preferred directory, make a file named pmundprt.mod in (r3dfox dir)/browser, and see if it works.

    This does remove most of the invasive behaviour of modern Firefox versions, such as the fact modern FF versions log every single mouse movement you make in the settings menu to Mozilla these days, right? I wish I wasn't joking about this - FF logs so much shit, and hell, Waterfox is pretty much just as bad if not worse (and tbh Waterfox was basically made redundant after FF started offering official x64 builds anyway)... Only LibreWolf to my knowledge actually strips things out properly AFAIK. Not sure about floorp, I heard it's better than Waterfox/Firefox but worse than LibreWolf/GNU IceCat, though doesn't break some sites as much, to even things out.

    (Amusingly, GNU IceCat makes an exemption for third-party tracking to Reddit, but nowhere else.)

    Something not even Google Chrome does, yet Mozilla claims to 'protect your privacy' whilst selling data to un-named advertisers. At least we all know Google's privacy policy is basically the laughing/skull emoji, so something like this would almost be a non-surprise, but Mozilla's shadiness over the years points to them being more like controlled opposition with their actions, despite their claims.

    If Librewolf fixes it and has a patch for it, I probably fixed it too since I used a few of their patches.

    Nice :) might give this a spin if I ever use Windows 7 on anything, then.

    for now, on this trusty inspiron 1545, mypal68 is more than serviceable :)

    r3dfox starting with 128 has it's own useragent that includes r3dfox/(version).
    Quoting you from Github:

    I'm sorry but you don't have the choice. Any official version above 115 requires at least Windows 10. So an user agent with Windows 6.1 is not valid, is not coherent, it can NOT exist in real life.
    Not to mention it's making finger printing so much easier.

    Maybe your source code is incomplete idk. I do build with ac_add_options --disable-tests though, so that might be required idk.

    I downloaded 128.0.3 now (zip this time not tar, so maybe that made the difference) and nothing is missing.

    But there is a different error this time:

    Ok, so for Vista stuff I had to make my own Rust.

    You extract this, rename it to whatever, do rustup toolchain link (whatever) (full path to extracted rust), then go to r3dfox source and rustup override set (whatever), then clobber and it should work.
