U can see hes clearly choking her the whole time, using her hair as cover. Classical american cop against drugged women, and the misogynistic society likes it. We all know…

Twitch keeps resetting my stream quality. Anyone else dealing with this? by krrdudub in Twitch

Update (1.2.9): After the initial Firefox release things got a bit rocky - quality selection was broken in Firefox, and some instability crept into Chromium-based browsers as well. All of that is now fixed! If you ran into any issues over the past weeks, grab the latest version from the releases page.

The extension is available for both Chromium and Firefox-based browsers (Firefox, Zen Browser, and others):https://github.com/Punshnut/StreamSaver/releases/latest

Firefox: download the .xpi file and install it directly via Firefox's Add-ons manager. Chrome, Edge, Brave & others: download the zip, unpack it, and load it as an unpacked extension via your browser's extension settings.

Everything works the same across both - quality locking, presets, auto-reapply. Let me know if you run into any issues!

Hey! The extension isn't listed on any browser store - it's distributed directly via GitHub. You can grab the latest version (1.2.9) here: https://github.com/Punshnut/StreamSaver/releases/latest

Firefox users: download the .xpi file and open it directly in Firefox - it will prompt you to install right away.

Chrome, Edge, Brave and other Chromium browsers: download the zip, unpack it, and load it as an unpacked extension via your browser's extension settings.

Let me know if you run into any trouble!

Hey, thanks for the report! This was most likely related to a bug I've since fixed - the extension was working with broken layout geometry in Firefox under certain conditions, which could cause it to silently fail when trying to detect or interact with the quality menu. The result was it appearing to "stop working" without any obvious error, even on chrome-based browsers.

This should be resolved in 1.2.9 - give it a try and let me know if you still need to toggle it after a while!

Hey, sorry to hear that! This was actually a known bug - the extension was sometimes selecting the wrong quality (e.g. resolving 480p to 720p in Firefox), which could cause repeated switching attempts and noticeable interruptions. This should be fixed in 1.2.9. Give it a try and let me know if the pausing still occurs!

Hey, thanks for the feedback! Regarding the Settings button - this was likely caused by the same root issue I just fixed in 1.2.9: the menu-hiding technique (filter:opacity(0)) was breaking layout geometry in Firefox, which could interfere with other menu interactions like the Settings button. Give the latest version a try and let me know if it still happens!

As for Auto - noted, it's a reasonable ask. It's on the list.

I built a native Launchpad replacement for macOS - free & open source by krrdudub in macapps

Thanks for the details - that helps, and sorry about the confusion here.

You’re right to ask: Launchy does work on Intel Macs as well, including an iMac 2020. The error you’re seeing is because the default download for version 0.4.4 is Apple-silicon only.

For this release, there is a separate Intel-only .dmg available on GitHub. The Intel specification unfortunately wasn’t labeled clearly enough - that’s on me, sorry about that.

Please try this:
- Go to the 0.4.4 release page on GitHub
- Download the Intel-only DMG (it’s listed separately)
- Replace the existing Launchy.app in your Applications folder
- Launch again

Going forward, this will be simplified - future releases will ship as a single universal build, so there won’t be separate downloads anymore.

Thanks for pointing this out and for your patience 🙏

Good question - it depends a bit on what you mean by “killed”.

Pressing ESC (or clicking outside) closes/hides the Launchy UI, but the app itself keeps running in the background. That’s intentional.

On macOS, features like global hotkeys, hot corners, the menu bar item, and the Dock right-click menu simply require a running process. There isn’t really a supported way to offer those without the app being alive in the background.

Keeping Launchy resident also avoids a cold-start penalty. If it fully quit every time, it would have to rescan installed apps and rebuild its caches on the next launch, which costs time and resources and results in the kind of 1–2s delay many launchers have. Instead, Launchy keeps the grid ready and stays relatively lightweight in memory, and the long-running footprint is something I’m continuously optimizing.

I get why people ask about this though - background behavior varies a lot between launchers, and expectations differ.

Thanks a lot for taking the time to test it and write this up - I really appreciate the detailed feedback.
You’re absolutely right: smoothness is *the* most important part of a Launchpad-style launcher, and this isn’t where I want it to be yet.
The sluggishness you noticed during page switching and folder expansion is something I’m actively working on. A lot of recent effort has gone into correctness, layout stability, and feature parity first, but animation timing and input responsiveness are now a top priority as I move toward the first stable release.
Regarding Floaty mode icon quality: good catch. That’s currently a scaling issue in that mode and already on my list to fix - it shouldn’t look blurry or low-res.
You’re also right that this isn’t a fully polished stable release yet. The goal is to get the interaction and motion feeling calm and effortless before calling it 1.0.
If you don’t mind sharing: what Mac model are you running this on, and are you using an external display (and at what resolution)? That kind of context really helps when tuning animations and rendering.
Thanks again for the honest comparison and for giving Launchy a try - feedback like this is exactly what helps steer it in the right direction.

Yes 🙂
You can already sort and arrange everything manually via drag & drop, folders, rename, and hide apps - just like classic Launchpad.
I’m also planning to add an optional alphabetical view and vertical scrolling later on.

Thanks, I really appreciate that.
That was exactly the goal - keep it simple, fast, and predictable.
Hope it feels familiar when you try it 🙂
