Librewolf is exactly what Firefox should be.
To the point where I find in #Librewolf new features I was explicitly missing in #firefox (like clicking on the lock to enable/disable cookies for a specific website)
And, yet, it works perfectly in #debian thanks to extrepo. But, seriously, it should be considered as the default Debian browser.
Congratulations to the team!
Don’t wait on Mozilla, switch to Librewolf !
Since Debian Linux has recently left X, you can follow it on Mastodon:

📰 Apareceram notícias sobre o pacote curl, ao atualizá-lo hoje no #Debian #sid (unstable) e que achei interessantes compartilhar. É o anúncio de alterações importantes, aparentemente entrando em efeito agora e iniciadas alguns meses atrás pelos mantenedores, em suma:- O utilitário curl, a partir da versão 8.8.0-2, passa a suportar HTTP/3, com os parâmetros --http3 ou --http3-only. Para conseguir isso, o programa agora passa a utilizar GnuTLS no lugar de OpenSSL. Ainda fornecerão uma variação de libcurl que continua usando OpenSSL.
- Incluíram o comando wcurl (veja seu manual) que facilita baixar um arquivo sem precisar lembrar os parâmetros do curl. Pode ser chamado no lugar dos usos mais simples de wget.
O conteúdo completo da mensagem está em https://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs/main/c/curl/curl_8.12.0+git20250209.89ed161+ds-1_curl.NEWS

Updated Version of the apache http caching setup for snac, including proxy media
I already wrote about caching here.
Now I extended what I cache a bit.
This was because after enabling the option to proxy media, I've seen access to the file paths /x/ and /y/ in addition to the path were snac stores the media that I include in my own posts ( /s/ ).
There are two locations to proxy media, depending if you requests the media via the mastodon api or via the web. (/x/ and /y/), oh and I added the nodeinfo2.0 path too, because I've noticed it was queried all the time by a lot of instances and it gives me pleasure to see something cached handed out in the access logs. 🙂 (I guess it is actually irrelevant for the system resources)
This is the updated setup:
Enable the relevant modules:
a2enmod expires cache cache_disk
Be sure "htcacheclean" is running to clean up the old disk cache. (under debian see /etc/default/apache-htcacheclean or else the relevant systemd service or whatever)
Then add this to the httpd Virtualhost config:
Further reading and all options are explained under https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/caching.html (and ff)
The Header that I set here, on the condition of Status code 200, is needed for the path /y/, because snac set no-cache on that location and mod_expires will honor that if we don't override it. I set it to the same Cache-Control value as mod_expires would. (I use mod_expires because it will additionally calculate the date and put that in the expires header. (hence the name I guess 😀 )

A slightly improved revision of apt-upgrade is now available at https://git.disroot.org/daltux/apt-upgrade/
This is a small personal collection of
#GNU #Bash scripts I’ve put together to simplify everyday updates for all the common stuff on Debian GNU/Linux-based systems. It has been available under the #GPLv3+ for a while, so you are free to use, study, modify, and share it however you see fit—following #Copyleft principles, always preserving the users' freedoms. If you improve it, consider sharing back your changes to help keep the spirit of #FreeSoftware alive. 🤝
I’d love to hear if it ends up being useful for you! If you run into any issues or have suggestions, please report them directly on Disroot Forgejo or just drop a comment here.

Vou, finalmente, converter uma primeira máquina virtual no centro de dados da universidade de #GNU/Linux para GNU/Linux-libre!
Pretendo seguir a ótima dica postada numa #TerSoftware por um dos próprios autores do projeto, @lxo, para aproveitar os pacotes .deb (para #Debian e derivados) já disponibilizados com o kernel Linux-libre compilado para uso geral para diversas arquiteturas:
https://www.fsfla.org/ikiwiki/selibre/linux-libre/freesh
A parte mais "difícil" parece ser decidir: linux-libre-lts ou o convencional... 😅

🍵#Debian folk, what version are you on as of now?
Options:
SDDM, KDE Plasma, root-on-OpenZFS – simple. On Linux.
Yes, I'll install the theme snaps.
Will I install zectl – a ZFS boot environment manager for Linux? Maybe …
