    Instant, low-overhead text editor in your browser

    Perhaps this is old knowledge for some of you, but it is new to me. I figure I could pass it along to everyone here. By entering the following string in the URL bar of whatever browser you use, you can render the tab/window as a basic, barebones text editor: data:text/html,<html...

    Microsoft's new Edge browser is a great alternative to Chrome for those seldom occasions when Safari won't do

    Safari is my main browser across all my Apple devices. While it's a good browser, that isn't necessarily by choice, as Apple prevents their users from choosing a different default browser. However, in macOS you have a bit more freedom than Apple's other platforms, and while I still use Safari...

    Heard Google Chrome is getting rid of extensions.

    I remember reading somewhere a few months back that Chrome would be ending support for downloading extensions and I was wondering if there is another alternative on the horizon? Or if that simply means that the current extensions will either no longer be updated or if we’ll need to visit...

    A New Browser is needed for Mac OS 9

    Just saw a poll on this forum for what OS people use on their PPC Macs and about 25% voted that they use Mac OS 9 or earlier. The only browser available for that OS (that is most modern) is Classilla and the same is true for every version of OS X under 10.4. Wikipedia said the browser has not...

    I don't know if the new Safari by itself is glitchy or if it doesn't work well with ublock origin, but either way, it's just not the same anymore. There are just too many minor issues at this point. By the way, the content blocker API change was a tick move since you can't find anything as good...

    Safari, Firefox, Chrome or Edge?

    I noticed over the years Safari is not as fast as it used to be and does not render pages as smoothly as it once did. I prefer not to use Chrome for a myriad of reasons (I use it at work, that's about it). I love Firefox but I can't make it my preferred browser on iOS. Edge, not sure yet. What...
