I got tired of constantly tweaking and fiddling with Ungoogled Chromium, which I've been using for years, so I finally switched to @brave@mastodon.social. Here, Incognito mode uses Tor, and vertical tabs work perfectly with full hiding. @Vivaldi@social.vivaldi.net would otherwise be my top choice, but it has some weird edge-case bugs, like the fact that not all extensions work in incognito mode. There are many good, minimal and private browsers available, but Google Meet or Netflix don't work on them (because of DRM and Widevine...)
The sad truth is that most browsers are bloated crap. As a CSS person, I'm just not interested in the slow progress of Firefox-based browsers, I need latest web standards and something Chrome-based to use the modern web. Project Ladybird sounds interesting. They are writing the entire browser from the ground up, including the engine... pretty crazy stuff. I wish them luck and success.

👋 Hi, I’m @thesaigoneer , our man in Danang. 🌱 No-coder +, perpetually between DE and WM 📫 Adjusted a gazillion of dots and still drinks beer. Since I've tried them all I've landed on KDE, dwm and a slew of other window managers. Quintessential distro-hopper, but running Slackware for over 3 years now. And counting. No issues with FreeBSD, Gentoo or Arch either. Prefer bare bones rolling. Into atomics and init systems as well. 👋 Don't blame yourself, learn feng shui & blame the furniture

Yep. Done. Version Beta v1.91.135 of Brave Origin for Slackware is available at:
https://codeberg.org/thesaigoneer/Brave-Origin
Plus some additional tweaking tips by me. Happy browsing!

Brave browser adds option to block YouTube Playables in settings:
https://alternativeto.net/news/2026/1/brave-browser-adds-option-to-block-youtube-playables-in-settings/
(I play da YouTube game. I "pirate" stuff with FreeTube and yt-dlp, use VPN when I get IP block, use Invidious when FreeTube and yt-dlp break. Also have an Android-x86 VM just to have NewPipe as a fallback. Now that's the game.)
(Actually someone should make a YouTube Piracy Simulator game where the player can collect score by watching or downloading videos using 3rd party tools (could work similarly like those simple mobile games where players need to tap on resources to collect them). The enemy is YouTube, final boss is DRM lmao)
