The loss of built-in PWA support was the biggest disappointment I had when switching from Chrome to Firefox, with the add-on solutions I tried having one problem or another in replicating my goal of making opening a handful of websites I had set to be PWAs look as much like regular applications as possible. While I wouldn’t switch back to Chrome in a second, and am still trying to get the rest of my family to make the switch, there’s a number of things Firefox needs to implement to remove the remaining roadblocks for people looking to make the switch away from Chrome or another Chromium browser.

Same with Garrett County in Western Maryland; lots of multi-million dollar vacation houses that border Maryland’s largest lake, despite there being few job opportunities in the county as a whole.

Wanted to put Proton VPN on my Steam Deck, so it’s quite frustrating that even a distribution with millions of users doesn’t have a version of the program released for it, given that the alternative methods of using it don’t allow for easy server switching.

Not particularly relevant when home ownership is a pipe dream at this point for the majority of young adults in the US unless a substantial amount of new affordable housing is built to fulfill market demand.

Also have to make sure that the public WiFi network one’s device is connected to doesn’t block VPN connections, as was the case at at least one Walmart I tried using the WiFi at.

And Trump would gladly see far more Gazans killed for the sake of securing Israel’s hold on Palestinian territory. Not that Harris couldn’t do better by the Gazans, but it’s either naive or deceitful to imply that both candidates have similar stances on the issue of Palestine.
