Or Nativefier (which uses electron) but with a nice GUI.

Nativefier was great. I recall that project struggling at the end really needing funding.

Oh no I didn’t realize it had ended! Maybe someone else will pick it back up.

It’s Prism still around? I used it back in the day but I thought it had been discontinued.

Nah, it is disconinued since many years, I thought it was kinda neat at first, but realized it would be faster to just use the full firefox browser instead.

Doesn’t appear to.

But looks like even GNOME Web supports extensions now. So no reason that something like uBlock origin couldn’t be implemented right?

IIRC extensions are sadly not a part of stable Gnome Web yet.

Adblocking is built in.

When I last tried it (around the time that article was posted, could’ve improved since), you needed to mess with gconf to enable the feature, which was for good reason because the compatibility was abysmal (ublock origin did not work and neither did dark reader or violentmonkey or really any extension I wanted to use).

Cool. I currently use Ferdium, but this seems like a much more lightweight alternative as it doesn’t ship its own Electron or whatever.

I was thinking exactly that yesterday, I looked for a way to have few web apps without using ferdium.

This is really cool, it would be nice to have some quick options like start minimized or minimize to tray.

Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
