For those unaware, I believe it is Time's Arrow from Season 5 & 6 Episodes 26 & 1

I just wish Firefox had a "stay running in the background" option like Chrome so that I didn't have to log back into my Bitwarden vault everytime I accidentally close all of my browser windows.

Seems to be a security feature that is bypassed by a Chrome feature.

Sounds like an OPSEC disaster waiting to happen.

Go to about:config - find option browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab - set to false. If you're only using the close tab button, it will never close out of the program. If you're closing a lot of windows using the window control though that won't really help.

This did actually help a lot, thanks!

It also is very unstable when using multiple profiles. The profiles update individually, so very often you start a second profile and it updates firefox, which makes the first profile not work anymore. You don't really notice that though, it just stops loading any websites.

Also on mobile it stops streams running in the background after some time, so when listening to something via firefox you have to actively use FF while listening, can't leave the phone turned to standby

On mobile, I've found that switching tabs before switching away from the FF activity mitigates this. Not sure if it's FF, the website, or Android messing it up, really.

The original quote is every bit as true too

What about Safari? Why no one ever talked about it?

It's the only browser (that I know of) that allows Netflix streaming in 4k.

[–] vale@sh.itjust.works 9 points 6 months ago

I'd assume because the majority of people here don't use Apple products

[–] DrM@feddit.de 8 points 6 months ago (1 children)

That's only because you use a Mac, on Windows only Edge allows 4k Netflix. It's the integrated browsers that have the HDCP hardware features so it allows 4K

[–] SeekPie@lemm.ee 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Could that be achieved with "Chrome on Windows" spoofing on FF?

[–] DrM@feddit.de 2 points 6 months ago

No. For 4K Netflix the browser needs to talk to a specific, locked down, part of your Intel (!) CPU. This only works on Edge in Windows or Safari on MacOS (it also works with the Store apps). It never works on Linux and it does not work on Chrome or Firefox.

Waterfox agrees with you to some degree
