And live bookmarks. This was the healthy way to read news from multiple sources before social media.

Live bookmarks was how I started, and what I've come back to after all, using this extension: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/livemarks/

When I'm familiar with the source, the headlines are enough for me to know if I want to read, navigating the folders is super quick, and the feed indicator makes adding new ones very easy too.

Thanks a lot for that link! I know nothing of Apple stuff and a friend has got an old iMac that he thought was unupdatable but it seems there's a way. Cheers!

It used to be even worse, with various tabs' event loops accidentally interacting with each other whenever a `alert()` was called.

When we were (slowly, painstakingly) making the Firefox UI compatible with multi-thread and multi-process, we hit this kind of issues all the time. One of the reasons we introduced Promise and async/await (née task/yield) in JavaScript was to give us a fighting chance to at least look at the code and understand where it could all break. And then we had to come up with the tools to actually debug these...

But you did, and Firefox flies these days, thanks!

Which Wikipedia snapshot do you grab? I keep meaning to do this, but whenever I skim the Wikipedia downloads pages, they offer hundreds of different flavors without any immediate documentation as to what differentiates the products.

I'm amazed by this, never occurred to me that these kind of updated ROMs could exist!

What are more examples of community updated classics?

Should the project be renamed to WFCE?
severine · a year ago
No, not anymore:

Xfce is pronounced “ecks-eff-see-ee”. The name Xfce originally stood for “XForms Common Environment”, but since then Xfce has been rewritten twice and doesn't use the XForms toolkit anymore. The name survived, but it is no longer capitalized as “XFCE” and is no longer an abbreviation for anything (although suggestions have been made, such as “X Freakin' Cool Environment”).
