Re: [Trisquel-users] Best way to watch Youtube videos?
I am glad that this thread helped other people. I will suggest that for privacy, other than using Tor, you might use the various Invidious instances that exist. That way you are not in risk of one single instance logging your info and selling it. Apart from that, I don't think that Invidious will suffer the same fate as Hooktube. The reason is that you can actually simply run the software in your own machine, and they can't stop that. The existing public instances might go down but not the software itself. Youtube might try to prevent the Invidious software from accessing their information (videos, comments, views, etc), but I don't see that as being feasible. Truth is youtube will eventually have to do something because if Invidious becomes standard... Youtube will suffer loss of money in ad revenue.
[Trisquel-users] Browser addons
Hello. I would like to have Abrowser or IceCat with a session manager, I mean one of those extensions that let you save your browsing sessions with all your open tabs and restore them later. But installing extensions does not seem to work in Abrowser or IceCat. I search for an add-on, select it, click on "Install extension" and nothing happens. As always, any help or comment is very much appreciated!

[Trisquel-users] Re : Browser addons
On an addon page on https://addons.mozilla.org try right-clicking on the button "Install extension" to get a contextual menu, copy the link, paste it it the address bar and visit that address. I believe Abrowser/IceCat spoofs the user agent to fight against fingerprinting. That is why https://addons.mozilla.org believes your version of the browser is not high enough.

[Trisquel-users] Offtopic: Today we aren't celebrating Hardware Freedom Day
...and another one bites the dust. The Digital Freedom Foundation has been organizing since 2013 the yearly celebration called the Hardware Freedom Day... until now. Same as with the Document Freedom Day, its site in the world wide web has been down since at least the beginning of the year. Again, I have had to go the the Calendar of ITC Celebrations that I maintain and delete the celebration, at least for 2019. -- Ignacio Agulló · agu...@ati.es 0xC6AB2D51.asc Description: application/pgp-keys signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
