Not familiar with Wolfram Mathematica, but Wolfram Alpha is annoying as fuck as all results they give are fucking images.
>>3182
Con: You can't blacklist individual scripts. It requires you to make a custom filter on uBlock, which is more than a little silly.
>>3197
Fair. I feel like implementing that into uMatrix would be a lot easier than other extensions successfully emulating most of uMatrix's features, though.

it's fucking trash. you don't need any blockers with JS disabled (javascript.enable;0). web browser plugins are shit and meme
>>3205
Been a while since I've used Windows but I think Explorer++ was what I used. What's wrong with Ifranview?
>>3230
oh god ppl asking me whats wrong with x and y. i have a whole article pending criticizing every image viewer i could find. IIRC irfanview was slow as fuck. panning and changing to next image in the gallery was slow. and there's no vsync. You can enable DWM but then the vsync will still be broken as fuck or laggy (can't remember which). for windows i think the best image viewer before nigchink was FastStone (which is also shit).
>>3221
are you asking me to explain why it's better to go to about:config and double click "javascript.enabled" than to install a giant plugin (with more untrusted code and perf hits) dedicated to mitigating XSS,CSRF,clickjacking, etc (and introducing new vulns in the process)
>3221
It's faster than NoShit. It allows better control for you to restrict tracking images and cookies and scripts, media etc. on a per-site basis.
>>3253
This does not protect you from tracking pixels etc. It also doesn't allow for any flexibility in case you need javashit for a trusted website.
>>3256
you might as well use a separate browser instance as any site with JS destabilizes a piece of shit like firefox or gnome until restart. firefox has --profilemanager exactly for this
lol. s/gnome/chrome

But can uMatrix block requests to 127.0.0.1 which can fingerprint your port configuartions?
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/10419
Can uMatrix disable @font-face which can be used to see which fonts you have (which typically reveals OS)?
https://arthuredelstein.github.io/tordemos/os-detection-font-css.html
NoScript can do those. I use both NoScript and uMatrix because they do different things: NoScript is good for global sanitization of websites, while uMatrix is good for specialized control of specific websites.
>>4846
Why should css be able to selectively request resources from an external server anyway? By disabling this feature, would you be able to completely sidestep css fingerprinting (fonts, etc), or is this not enough?
>>3205
>browser plugin meme
I think you mean "dependent meme" since browsers are meme and the only way to use the internet correctly is with wget or curl which are "independent meme". Are you telling me you aren't wgetting these pages into terminal. fucking noob
uMtarix does other stuff.
Going into a prefs everytime for every site that does/does not require JS sounds tedius.
Just disabling JS sounds nice but I sense a big gap.

WeeChat (not WeChat) is a good chat client, can even be used with Matrix.

Are there any browsers that provide XUL support other than waterfox?

It's also kinda funny that one of the lists linked there declares Ungoogled-Chromium the holy-grail, when it seems to get dismissed and shat all over elsewhere as "just some project a student did".
Why doesn't the Tor team use it (Ungoogled-Chromium) and uMatrix instead of shitty Firefox?

According to this:
https://old.reddit.com/r/waterfox/comments/aizc01/please_dont_use_tracking_scripts_on_your_website/
You can simply disable through an extension, which would seem to mean that it is their site that used Google Analytics, not the browser.
I checked just now and uMatrix shows no connections on their site being made to Google Analytics.
So it's either embedded in the browser to run on startup (seems unlikely), or it was on their site and, now, is not.
I agree that it is still hypocritical of them to do so, but not as big of an issue as it sounds.

Just tested Waterfox using mitmproxy as mentioned here:

Waterfox does not phone home to Google Analytics.

Not really. uBlock is better with ads, uMatrix with elements over all.
I recommend (and do) using both.

urxt/rxvt-unicode (with plugins)
Renders ACSII art (ie neofetch) better than all other terminals.
Only downside is it acts like a CRT tv, and has lots of esoteric features, and can't do emojis.
LibVTE terminals are BLOAT!
Alacritty seems nice, but can't render half as good as URXVT, ditto Suckless's ST.
Literally lines will break in them.

Post software that hold such a superiority to its competition that it's dumbfounding.
I'll start with uMatrix
>MUCH less bloated than most *standalone* script blockers and *standalone* ad blockers
>superior features
>superior user control
>increases performance while most of its competition does the opposite
>only unusable to """tech-illiterates""" who can't handle more than one shiny button at a time
