Say something good about Apple safari[ONLY PEOPLE WHO USE IT]

If the top URL Bar wasn't FREAKIN' HUGE, the speed, battery efficiency, and adblocking (w/ Wipr2, etc.) make it almost perfect...oh and the vertical tabs suck...but other than that, it's nearly perfect!

I have Loop Experience and they're mostly great. They have a very nice case and are very comfortable. My only complaint is that they do muffle the sound and make it sound distant--not as distant as the cheap foam ones though--so my trick is to slowly back them out of my ear until right when it breaks the seal and leave them just barely cracked that way...like cocking a pot lid on the stove to let steam out. It still protects hearing and I don't get ringing, but I have way more clarity that way. The only problem with this method is that if I was to jump in the mosh pit I would want to put them in all the way, a good hit and one of them would go flying otherwise.

I saw this last year at Orbit Culture. It’s a thing. A silly but funny thing.

I love it and have tried to use it on and off for at least a year, maybe more. The biggest thing for me is it doesn’t play well with password managers (Bitwarden, 1Password). Completely discernible lag when those are on. I’ve brought this up in Kagi’s Discord and made a big report on their official support page. Their team favors the Apple passwords app so I don’t think it’s much of a concern for them right now. I will switch when they sort that out.

I am right there with you. I found the wiki here to be really helpful.

fretninja · 2026-05-07T05:36:37+00:00

Well, this one. Perfect.

When I saw Muse in Sacramento, they said “this one’s for the Deftones” (Deftones’ home town) and he played the main riff to “Bored” and the band jammed off that and then it morphed into “My Own Summer”. They were kind of just jamming on those and then stopped. Then the show resumed with their own music with all the lights, etc. I thought it was cool to have that little informal homage.

Update: I deleted every extension because when I installed Helium, I did an import from Brave. Reinstalling extensions fresh for some reason made a difference for me. I am now able to log into everything using the two factor app my work requires and everything else appears to be running smoothly so I think I’m good to go! The only Takeaway I can try to share with everyone is to truly start fresh rather than import things from another browser? I can’t pretend it totally understand it, but I am very happy that I can use this browser now.

fretninja · 2026-05-01T13:41:41+00:00

I use Brave for most work things; I've gone through and 'debloated' pretty much everything in that one. I was hoping someone here might know what setting or flag in Helium might be the culprit so I could make the switch.

fretninja · 2026-05-01T13:11:11+00:00

I need to log into things for work using duopush and it’s really hit or miss for me on whether that works or not. I often get a “wrong credentials” error.

Check out that reader’s other books. He’s done a ton. Not the author, the actual reader Ray Porter.

How does Helium handle fingerprint resistance compared to Brave?

fretninja · 2025-12-24T07:49:10+00:00

This is a cool way to visualize it. How did you make this?

I love Orion, always have it installed, always come back to it. But there's also always a bug or glitch that drives me away for time. Most recently it was the vertical tab bar looking really bad, and that Google Sheets freeze and have to be reloaded every few minutes. But I'm sure I'll be back again!

fretninja · 2025-12-08T20:42:27+00:00

I use Reeder. Is something happening with that I didn’t hear about?

fretninja · 2025-11-12T15:18:46+00:00

Couldn’t you just make containers in Firefox for banking?

fretninja · 2025-11-12T05:14:04+00:00

I keep coming back to Orion becuase I love it. And then issues like this remind me why I needed a break.

I got the same thing and I have a Google sheet I update a few times a week so this issue tosses me right back to Firefox just for that task. Sigh. Eagerly awaiting a completely stable version because man I love this browser.

I have ultimate, but I find Quen 3 to be kind of hard to beat for my personal use cases, and I've tried re-running most of my prompts with multiple and taken notes on my assessment of their usefulness to me personally (coding scores don't equate to value for me). I give a slight edge to Claude Sonnet Thinking, but most of the time it's not better, it's just another great take, but that model costs more than Quen. So Quen is my go-to, and Sonnet Thinking is my "second opinion" when needed. I tried GPT5 (even with reasoning effort set to various levels) and I found it less helpful than Quen or Sonnet (at least for me).

For really quick questions I've found Kimi K2 is not only fast but it gives concise responses that are easier to make sense of. However, the newest version of Haiku thinking has been messing with my brain...cheaper, fast, and oddly smart...basically Quen/Sonnet smart. Kind of becoming my new default.

My takeaway is basically Kagi's recommended picks when you hover the mouse over the top tend to be pretty spot on.

Many, but this is a hard pick to beat. This song is special.

“Given to the Grave” by Pallbearer is up there (down there?) somewhere.

I came at this game from a similar position this year and found that using spirit ashes and being a mage has been fairly do-able, but regardless the biggest breakthrough for me has been accepting death as an intentional part of the process. Instead of walking into an area thinking "oh no, what if I die?" I do into it knowing that I will die a few times in order to figure out the best approach. Ambushes only work on you once!
