    • Due to server slowness, downtime, and other issues, Eclipse will be moving to a more stable and efficient platform that should result in much better stability. There is no timeline for this yet, just want you to know what's happening with all the downtime and I have a plan to fix it.

    Greetings.
    Is there any Artificial Intelligence in r3dfox 148 like Firefox 148?
    And if yes, how can we enable / disable it?

    The AI preferences are disabled and blocked by default in the config.cfg file:
    Code: Select all
    // These usually get set by the new AI Controls
lockPref("browser.ai.control.default", "blocked");
lockPref("browser.ai.control.linkPreviewKeyPoints", "blocked");
lockPref("browser.ai.control.pdfjsAltText", "blocked");
lockPref("browser.ai.control.sidebarChatbot", "blocked");
lockPref("browser.ai.control.smartTabGroups", "blocked");
lockPref("browser.ai.control.translations", "blocked");

    About this issue report: https://github.com/Eclipse-Community/r3dfox/issues/115

    I don't have any problems when downloading files BUT on Github where the download speed is often low, like 150 KB/s or less, sometimes very low 20-30 KB/s. If I stop the download with the X and restart it then I get full speed.

    AFAIK this occurs on Github only, any repo. This does not happen with Firefox 115.32 ESR.
    I've just noticed something else about downloading files with R3dfox. Sometimes I can't download 2 files or more at the same time from the same site, I have to wait for the first download to complete.

    Example:
    https://www.xmedia-recode.de/download/XMediaRecode3627_setup.exe
    https://www.xmedia-recode.de/download/XMediaRecode3627_x64_setup.exe
    https://www.xmedia-recode.de/download/XMediaRecode3627_x64.zip

    If I click on the links it's ok. But if I copy the links one by one and paste and open each one in a new window then nothing happens for the second and third download while the first one is downloading.
    It's working fine with Firefox 115.33 ESR, all files can be downloaded at the same time.

    I have no download issues on my system. I've even downloaded hundreds of files one right after another, and it's been fine. I don't know why or how this would happen.

    For some reason it doesn't happen when you click on the links but only when you copy them (right click → Copy Link Location) and then paste them in the address bar of a new window (not tab) + Enter.
    And only with some sites, not all of them. A good example with the links I gave in my previous post, it always happens with this site.

    I always either just middle click to open new tab or right click and open in new window. I guess that's why I've never seen it. That's such a weird issue, and I highly doubt any r3dfox change would make it happen but also idk.

    Hello.
    I'm using win 7 with r3dfox (actual 148.0 (64-bit) because discord added some encrypted voice (E2EE ? ) calls and desktop app cant use calls anymore.
    I can call, i can see mac and probably android streams, but i cant see video stream from windows (error 2012) but i can hear the sound.
    Also nobody see my streams.
    Checked also on another totally different pc with win7
    I also tested supermium and there everything works fine. I'm feeling so bad using chrome based browser... Thats why i'm here and saying about all this stuff. :)

    There is a (closed) issue about that:
    https://github.com/Eclipse-Community/r3dfox/issues/135

    Hopefully it will be fixed in the upcoming version 149 ?

    R3dfox b149.0 BETA:
    https://github.com/Eclipse-Community/r3dfox/releases/tag/b149.0

    Bear in mind it's a BETA version. So backup at least your profile, or more, before you update to b149. ;)

    R3dfox b149.0 BETA:
    About v149, according to this article:
    https://blog.mozilla.org/en/firefox/firefox-148-149-new-features/

    Version 149 is supposed to have a free built-in VPN:
    Quote:
    A free built-in VPN is coming to Firefox.
    Users will have 50 gigabytes of data monthly in the U.S., France, Germany and U.K. to start. Available in Firefox 149 starting March 24.
    But I don't see it anywhere in the settings. Is it intentional ?

    Ugh !!!
    I HATE these types of forced-upon "new features" !!!

    Absolutely hate, hate, hate !!!

    Tell me, is this feature able to be turned OFF ???
    What happens a mere THREE TO FIVE DAYS into every "month" that my daily video streaming pushes me over the "monthly limit" ???

    Modern r3dfox follows most Librewolf changes, and from Librewolf, I remember disabling one or two preferences related to a Mozilla VPN, so this should just be disabled by default.

    Personally, speaking solely for myself and my own "safe hexing" practices that have kept me virus-free and malware-free for FORTY YEARS and the last thirty of which was outright AGAINST bottle-knecking anti-virus and anti-malware real-time scanning CRAP slowing down my machine (but have voluntarily installed them over those thirty years and discussed their performance-killing aspects on forums like this, lol, sure, there are some good ones, but few and far between and uninstalling them becomes such a nightmare at times that you are better off with a format/reinstall which is the same result you would have had if you were infected with what it was to safeguard against) and even AGAINST *self-induced* *man-in-the-middle* Tor Network EXIT POINTS, I would NEVER "trust" a VPN that is "IN BED WITH" Mozilla and all of its on-by-default telemetry and data collection mechanisms (which Chrome has also, but the end user in one versus the other has always boiled down to making yourself a needle in the haystack 2-miles high or a needle in the haystack 70-miles high).

    This is nothing more than a DESPERATE play on "VPN Myths" and getting Firefox users to PAY FOR their "free" web browser.

    There is no "logging or selling" of data, any Firefox user that "enables" this feature is simply HANDING OVER the data that Firefox by itself doesn't collect but WILL collect through its VPN.

    No, you don't have to pay for the browser itself but only for the full version of the Mozilla VPN.
    The free version of the VPN remains free but it's limited to 50 GB a month and it requires a Mozilla account.

    What is the source page of your screenshots ?

    I didn't bookmark and I have no plans to hunt them down for you.
    Perform some searches and you can find them just as easily.
    Likely even believe them more because you found them yourself. :mrgreen:

    You can activate the feature manually by setting via about:config the option browser.ipProtection.enabled to true .

    Not really my problem. Believe the content or don't believe the content. Again, not really my problem. :mrgreen:

    It was never intended to be a Doctorate Thesis where every one paragraph has six footnote references.

    Yes, OFFICIAL!

    DOZENS of links to "Mozilla Support". Next time I try to be helpful, I'll *FLOOD* the SHIT out of the website and screencRap all *dozens* of "Mozilla Support" snippets and footnote the Hell Out Of It.

    I'm done... Stick a fork in me...

    Considering Librewolf sets trr to 5, that's probably just the best course of action anyways though.
    Differences between network.trr.mode values:
    Quote:
    0 - Off (default). use standard native resolving only (don't use TRR at all)
    1 - Reserved (used to be Race mode)
    2 - First. Use TRR first, and only if the name resolve fails use the native resolver as a fallback.
    3 - Only. Only use TRR, never use the native resolver.
    4 - Reserved (used to be Shadow mode)
    5 - Off by choice. This is the same as 0 but marks it as done by choice and not done by default.

    FYI Windows_NT 5.2 3790 is Windows Server 2003, not XP:

    Almost the same from the R3dfox point of view anyway. ;)
