I have an assumption about average internet speed — it’s fast enough for most parts of the world to have streaming services. But somehow, some websites still do use lazy loaders on their images and assets. Mad Tea Party is one of them, due to server’s resource issues. But for websites that have larger traffic, for the life of me, I don’t understand why they would want to have users wait for each image to load in-between the reading session.

How to Use Space Bar on Komga Web Viewer
There are two parts advantage of moving to web-based apps and platforms from my experience: one, web-based development seems to be more active (completely anecdotal), and two, web-based means I can come up with an add-on rather easily.
How to Stop YouTube AI-Translation via Mobile Userscript
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 automatically redirects mobile users. Now, an argument can be made — I believe this is where Google stands — the best mobile UX for YouTube is on YouTube app. But that’s not always an option, especially when it comes to stopping AI translation.
App to Stop YouTube AI-Translation via Userscript
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, but tweaking it takes little to no effort as most of the script can be edited by the user.
App to Run Userscripts on iOS Safari
What I like about Firefox and its community-driven open source nature really coincides with a lot of what I like about Python. There are always like-minded people trying to solve a problem that is often too niche for other browsers. Having said all the that, Safari, as a browser platform, lacks that community attention yet. I often found myself trying to find which “slop” is the real extension I am looking for.
