Your title indicates otherwise so might be worth amending it.

I believe this is a hardware issue. Have you checked the USB options in the BIOS?

I may have missed something.

Firefox 127 has introduced privacy tweaks that are causing user dissatisfaction, particularly due to changes like the separation of normal and private windows on the taskbar and the closing of private tabs when the main instance closes on iOS.

This sounds like it would be the expected behaviour?

• Despite user complaints, the update includes new privacy and security enhancements such as upgrading subresources from HTTP to HTTPS and masking CPU architecture to reduce fingerprinting.

This sounds like a good thing?

• Mozilla plans to address user feedback by reintroducing the “browser.privateWindowSeparation.enabled” preference as an opt-in and adding more intuitive privacy settings in future updates.

This sounds like a good thing?

The link I posted said this:

In the U.S., Google charges individual users $14 per month for YouTube Premium, which limits ads and offers a few additional features.

So it ‘limits ads’ which means there are still ads.

You pay $14 per month and you STILL get ads?!?!

WTF!?

I use Debian 12. I use Spotify. And I don’t have this issue.

What I have had is various issues with kernel 6.1.0-21. I’m currently using 6.1.0-18 on my laptop and 6.1.0-15 on my desktop and the issue I had are gone. Because of my experience, I’d suggest trying those kennels.

Just to confirm it also works with the Logitech C930e that the OP has. This is what I use it for.

People at the Post Office and Fujitsu need to go to jail over this.

It won’t happen. They’ll get away with it. Same as ever.

I wasn’t implying criticism isn’t allowed.

But opinions on what somebody should do with their time and project are just that.

Feedback must be given in a respectful way or it’s not effective. That often doesn’t happen with open-source projects and until we change the culture around open-source, this is going to just keep happening.

Opinions ate like assholes. Everybody has one. Doesn’t mean its relevant or important. The number of intelligent people who confuse opinion with fact never fails to astound me.

I agree.

Playing Devils Advocate it sounds like the options, for them, would be to stop providing a non-paying version entirely.

I understand where they are coming from but providing an open source version that won’t get timely security updates feels like it would be more trouble than it’s worth to use.

If they only want to work on a version that pays for their time I’d suggest they make the whole thing closed source.

The self-entitlement in open-source has to stop. This is only one example of a maintainer quitting. There are many more.

And the shaming of projects who want to make money to sustain their projects also has to stop. Nothing is free. Somebody is paying for it in time, resources or money.

If you don’t like what a project is doing, or how they’re monetizing, don’t use it. Move on.

I ended up going to VMware Workstation as it just works. I could never get KVM to share between Linux and Windows host / guest no matter what I tried. Samba wasn’t an option for me to use.

I’m really glad there seems to now be a potential solution in wsdd2.

That’s a pretty shitty response to somebody trying to help you.

I don’t use Zorin OS, but did you install the Firefox add-on?

Yes, you should look into what you’re getting into

Then we agree.

In my opinion, it’s common sense to research an operating system, how it works and what’s expected, before you move to it. And to also research if there are any issues with your hardware on your new operating system you chose.

The OP complained about many things. You singled out one. Most of them would have been mitigated had they researched what I mentioned above.

Its my opinion, and I stand by what I said before.

Your comment, like the OP’s post fails to recognise the arrogance of jumping from one OS to another and expecting to put no work in and that it will work just as he expects.

dogmatic OS fundamentalism

I recognise OS’s are not the same as it’s the basis for my comment. Stop your bullshit.

When you move to an OS, have the common sense to not expect it to work the same way as the one you came from.

My disagreement doesn’t meaning I’m falling prey to anything. I am free to disagree with anybody I like for any reason I deem important enough for me. Just as you are. It’s called having a different opinion. Look it up.

You’ve moved over to another operating system and you’re expecting it to work like your previous one. That’s stupid.

Windows, Mac, BSD, VMS, Unix etc. all work their own way. Expecting them to work how you want them to is arrogant.

Before you moved you might have read up on the differences and how things work. That would be sensible.

Nobody here has any time for this nonsense. Which is why you are being down voted.

That was really interesting to read. A lot of people have been saying that Twitter had got a lot worse since ManBaby came along. Not being a user anymore I have nothing to dispute that with.

What is interesting is the companies who are arguably making it ‘worse’ (partly) are backing that statement up by saying it’s better than it was for them. Easier to do business. Easier to make money. Easier to make it worse.

I suppose that’s what happens when the owner sees moderation of this type of content as ‘censorship’.

Twitter users confuse me. Maybe they double-down on the moderation of their own bubble so it’s not quite as bad for them.

Feels like a case of switching sides, in an effort to say relevant and make a few bucks from interviews.
