Welcome a new Fennec F-Droid

anon88801960 · October 22, 2021, 4:10am

I’m not sure about Fennec connections, but I discovered two new connections in the Firefox build for Linux distributions. I update the list.
Feel free to update this.

I strongly don’t recommend blocking connections like this as it will break legitimate functionality.

Your Cloudflare host is also typoed.

anon88801960 · October 22, 2021, 5:01am

Edited, thanks.

I already placed safebrowsing as optional, is there anything else?
Edit2: I didn’t remember that I had set the cloudflare DNS temporarily, I removed the host.

Hey @relan, could you think of applying privacy enhancements from @SkewedZeppelin’s Mull?
They are mostly about:config patches I think.

SkewedZeppelin · October 26, 2021, 3:00pm

@hoolamags
Mull is already closely maintained inline with Fennec F-Droid.
As already shown in the thread above, options like resistFingerprinting do break sites.
Having a vanilla Firefox as a fallback or to compare against is useful.

hoolamags · October 26, 2021, 4:33pm

Would it be possible to bring back tabs list on the top below the status bar in fennec?

SkewedZeppelin · October 26, 2021, 4:51pm

@hoolamags
Settings > Customize > Toolbar > Top

hoolamags · October 27, 2021, 11:37am

I meant the tabs list with the favicon, name and a ‘x’ mark for tabs.

Logging in to schwab.com on Fennec fails. When you enter your Login ID and Password and hit the Log In button, it just spins forever.
It works fine on Firefox Stable, Beta, and Nightly.
I have disabled all extensions and problem still occurs. I have also cleared Cookies, Cache, Site Data, etc.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
If this is the wrong place to post this, please let me know where the correct place is. I am an old time Fennec user but new to this forum.

Logging in to schwab.com on Fennec fails. When you enter your Login ID and Password and hit the Log In button, it just spins forever.

Sounds like Fennec stucks at 2-step verification when logging into Google (#2527) · Issues · F-Droid / Data · GitLab

I can only recommend waiting for Fennec 95.1 (should happen the next week) or building a pre-release version of it yourself.

Dan884 · December 5, 2021, 7:13pm

Thanks @relan. I will wait for Fennec 95.1.

relan · January 18, 2022, 9:20am

JFYI, Fennec 96 update was pushed several days ago, but the build server suffers from network issues which cause build failures. You can watch the status at running - F-Droid Monitor (currently running build session) and build - F-Droid Monitor (the last session).

AMK · January 18, 2022, 9:43am

Thanks for letting us know. I appreciate your work.

bat999 · March 4, 2022, 6:50pm

@ relan
How about a data-saver for Fennec F-Droid?
Bromite has one.

Also Iceraven browser has one.
Iceraven uses the Add-on “Save-Data: on”.

Is it difficult to include this extra Add-on with Fennec F-Droid’s existing 18 Add-ons?

But read this post first —> The extension is no longer compatible with Firefox on Android · Issue #4 · da2x/save-data · GitHub

relan · March 4, 2022, 8:55pm

I don’t maintain any addon collections. You can create your own or find one that includes this addon.

bat999 · March 4, 2022, 9:31pm

OK.
I will try to make a collection with the 18 addons + data-saver.
Thanks

bat999 · March 6, 2022, 4:38pm

It is here —> rat-addons – Add-ons for Firefox (en-US)

@bat999
uBlock Origin has a default disabled list that does most of what ClearURLs does
and to get dom.security.https_only_mode to stick you need to use the Quit button

bat999 · March 7, 2022, 11:26am

@ SkewedZeppelin
I’ve got https_only_mode to stick now.
Thanks for that!

I use Blokada instead of uBlock.

Also got rid of all dark viewers.
They slow page loading down for me.
Will wait for a native solution from Mozilla/Fenix.

Have modified my collection.

Licaon_Kter · March 7, 2022, 11:27am

That Dark extension, why does it connect to Github continously?
