Did you take advantage of the $9.99 sale as well?

I took a breather after dying a few times fighting the first boss 2-3 weeks ago. I've forgotten the control already, yet when I decide to pick it back up I'm going to have to kill a boss smh lol

RIP. Was on firefish a few months but saw the writing on the wall back then and jumped ship. In retrospect, probably the 3rd or 4th federated product I've been a user of that flamed out. WATTBA

Indirectly, but the .bash_aliases file that has all my terminal shortcuts

For game subscription services, I use a month as a 'taster' and then buy games outright that will keep me busy for months. Paying for a subscription in perpetuity isn't worth it for my gaming, but admittedly, I'm a millennial that grew up before online gaming et al.

I made the transition last summer and there was definitely growing pains. Over time it will become second nature like everything else. The advice I would give would be to be patient and accept that you have used a different operating system probably for over a decade, so there will be a learning curve initially.

Also, artificial intelligence models (especially Claude) are very useful for troubleshooting.

I'm going to continue buying Chromebooks because I can wipe the OS and put Linux on them.

I use Floorp and JUMPED to it from Firefox because I had a mediocre Firefox experience. I fancy myself a power user and was not a fan. The idea that the majority who try Firefox and have issues are in the wrong and the minority who enjoy the experience are right seems backwards...

I had the exact same journey as you: Chrome to Chromium to Firefox to Floorp.

Different shortcuts, ways of customizing the browser, etc. the browser may feel like second nature to you currently, but for others, there's friction in changing the software you've use for over a decade, and I say this as a current Floorp user

I'm not a user of brave, but I did a quick Google and it looks like they're ad blocking will be unaffected. As for other extensions, I think that at least some will be supported for a year, while others may break immediately but I didn't take too deep TBH

 

They've started inserting a subtle ad as the first result instead of the actual app you're searching for.

This has to have been a change over the last month or two I feel like?

I'm having to reprogram myself to view the first result as irrelevant. Really makes me want to increase the F-Droid alternatives that I use.
