@noiob but what would you recommend for a de-googled one, i'm willing to give it a try
-F

@noiob don't those also have the download bar be really big though?

or is that customizable? because we're used to it being about 20 pixels tall and chrome has it like three times that height
-F

alternatively some other firefox fork that allows old addons *and* doesn't break weasyl and stackexchange, that would work too

why did they have to change the addon system, i hate how things are being made less accessible

@noiob i installed that and it just plain doesn't work
-F

this is a call for help because we kind of need this feature for accessibility reasons that are somewhat complicated to explain and i would really like to be able to use weasyl and stackexchange and stuff again

we've been using waterfox classic for the last several years so we can continue using an old extension that does what we want but websites keep breaking compatibility with the old version of firefox this is based on

can someone *please* find us a way to use modern firefox or a modern firefox fork with a download status bar that works

we hate the downloads being a button in the upper toolbar and really want them to be on the bottom but it seems like no extensions for modern firefox can do that without huge compromises

@ziphi iwrc figuring out when the hell specific holidays were is part of what drove the development of calendars into what we'd consider a calendar today

@Kaffe@chitter.xyz we've heard of it but never played it, it doesn't appeal to us

re: Cartoon eye contact 

@socks stuff like this makes us realize that english has weird prepositions

@Trinket yeah we occasionally wish we had a second monitor but there's no good way to do that with a laptop
-F

@Dex perfectly valid--we have different use cases and different preferences! we like large screens that give us plenty of room to have a bunch of windows open and stuff, personally

@noiob apology accepted

sorry i didn't make it clearer sooner that that was happening
-F

today was going fine and now it's really bad

i think we're going to just go to sleep

someone please fix accessibility in tech by the time we wake up
-F

mh ---, tech 

why does it feel like everything keeps being changed to be less accessible and less suited to our needs

why can't things just keep working the way they used to work, the way we've gotten used to them working

why do you have to keep changing things and breaking compatibility and features
-F

@noiob sorry i think i'm having a bit of a depression spiral here

it feels like everything we use keeps being changed to be less usable to us and there's nothing we can do to keep it working how we like it other than try to keep the existing things going as long as possible
