The prevalence of web UIs with advanced DB features on them make it possible to save search queries on bookmarks. For example, I could keep track of a favorite author on a eBook platform with a url similar to service.ddns.org:port/search?=authorname. Each platforms have their own URL scheme, but the point is simple. This approach would…
I suppose each developers have their own basic browsers to fallback to. If it works on this browser, it’s likely going to run on all browser. My go-to browser, especially for apps that offer web UI, is Firefox. Part of the reason why I haven’t moved to Chrome — aside from the usual memory jokes…
Firefox is giving me different varieties of issues lately. Partly, because I think most apps are now geared toward Chrome and Safari — the most popular on all platforms or the most popular on single platform browsers. But that’s an excuse for Firefox not working with websites and web UIs, not the Firefox’s own bookmarks…
In my previous post, I’ve hinted there is something in the works for the mobile environment. I wasn’t sure how well it would work. For some contexts, YouTube has a mobile webpage, not a responsive UI like you see on The Mad Tea Party. You can easily catch that by the subdomain, m.youtube., when it…
I had covered this issue before using a dedicated add-on on browsers. While it worked, there were two problems, at least in my opinion: a. it’s a separate app just for one website, b. it’s not available on iOS. Granted, I was not able to find a universal user script that works on both platforms,…
As I am still doing migration projects from Pi (the hardware) to everything hosted on NAS, there were few things I wanted to try. One of which is open-source community-backed DBs. So far, not all of them were as good as I thought, but every projects I had seen so far showed the signs of…
It’s been a long holiday week in South Korea, and with long holiday, I had some tinkering to do on all of my browsers. Safari on both macOS and iOS do support ‘read later’ feature with possible options to sync over cloud and save locally. It is a feature handy for short term usage, but…
If you are having trouble connecting to Synology DSM via web with recent influx of Firefox and macOS updates, this is likely the cause. The odd bit of it all is that in my case, it didn’t happen after an update. I didn’t get any updates on either one, it just happened out of the…
Before I get into details, if I have to fathom a guess based on what I’ve read so far, this is likely a bug on Firefox’s part. I’m not up to date with Firefox development and the priority lists they must have; but reading some of the other proxy plugins GitHub gave some ideas as…
