All my cars, bar one, have been manual transmission, as is my current one. To be honest, as I’m lazy, I do prefer auto, but it’s easier to buy a car with manual transmission here in the UK, as you have more options.

For a moment there, I thought your second sentence was going to be confessing that you were also a landlord.

Well, yeah, I get that, even if I don’t find those episodes bad myself, but I do think episode two, Bojack Hates the Troops, is a really good satirical episode that shouldn’t be missed.

Wimmy wham wham wozzle!

I’ve signed in a few times to lemmy.world using Firefox over the last week.

Sorry for being the annoying “not for me” guy. ;-)

Is there a possibility that it’s an issue with the desktop Firefox? Maybe it’s sending “garbage” to Sync due to profile corruption, etc. The passwords in your desktop Firefox work fine? Maybe try clearing its cache, if you haven’t already, or go nuclear by creating a new profile, then set it up as you want, and adding your passwords, then using that new profile to see if you can sync your passwords, etc. Sorry, but other than that drastic action, I’m out of ideas.

One other thing, do your browser history and bookmarks sync?

Ouch, that’s not good.

Have you tried force stopping and deleting the cache in Firefox for Android? Maybe you might need to clear its data and reinstall Firefox for Android again, which might force Sync to work. It’s possible your profile is corrupted. You might well lose some settings if Sync doesn’t repopulate, but it seems that you’ve already lost stuff due to Sync not working.

My desktop Firefox syncs my passwords to Firefox for Android quite well.

However, yeah, I do think that Firefox’s development over the years has gone a bit awry with the attempt to out-Chrome Chrome. It’s still the best browser out there, though.

Why not try to convince yourself by actually trying it for a week. Do your own hands-on research, as you’ll have a better appreciation of the browser. It’s not as if your device is going to explode if you try something other than Brave.

Thanks for being both informative and open about this issue. Hope it works out.

Edit: The first two versions of this post didn’t seem to send: spinning post button. Maybe it’s not fixed or it’s struggling?

Welcome to the world of tomorrow!

Also works on Beta now.

Maybe some manwiches.

As for what the contents could be, maybe first come first served.

In terms of privacy, then Firefox wins. Performance probably goes with Chrome, but not as much as it used to be to be a real concern for most users. Firefox has improved itself on performance over the years. Also, Firefox isn’t planning on crippling its extensions to the extent that it affects the quality of ad-blockers, etc.

Right, so it’s not just me. That’s a bit of a relief.

Thanks.

I’m not really one who has the inclination to moderate, but I might consider setting up the Lemmy equivalent of r/the_wire if one doesn’t come up in the next few weeks.

Yeah, true. Fair point.

There are issues with both sides of the down button debate, but I’m more for it than against.

For a different take on the downvote button, yesterday I put a post up on a technical thread. I hadn’t really read properly what the discussion was about, so my post wasn’t really helpful even if well intentioned. I only noticed when I got a couple of downvotes. I looked again at my post, then at the OP, then realised my error. Eventually I deleted my post. So, in that instance, I found the downvote helpful to myself as well as for the rest of the thread: make sure I read the OP carefully. ;-)

Yeah, that’s what I visualise when I read the word lemmy.

Someone was wondering what to call users of Lemmy. Maybe motorheads?
