it's worth noting that this is the intended behaviour for privacy.resistFingerprinting. this is not exclusive to Mull.

zwekihoyy ,

I wholly agree with you there, I'm just saying it's the same behavior on all browsers built on Firefox. true for desktop as well

zwekihoyy ,

yes, if you enable resist fingerprinting on any Firefox build it will cap refresh rate to 60hz. Mull is not doing anything special, it's just changing about:config options by default.

you can disable resist fingerprinting in mull and regain standard refresh rate (although you lose fingerprinting protection) just as you can enable resistFingerprinting in Firefox beta or nightly and see refresh rate cap at 60.

zwekihoyy ,

you need to use Firefox beta, nightly, mull, or Fennec F-Droid to access about:config and from there you can search for and enable resistFingerprinting. it's not an option in the settings.

zwekihoyy ,

you've posted this same comment at least 5 times and you've been wrong every time.

zwekihoyy ,

I'm not trolling you're just demonstrably incorrect.

zwekihoyy ,

okay buddy

zwekihoyy ,

you're wrong and look stupid.

Android phone saving metadata for screenshots (i.ibb.co)

I always remove this data from my screenshots before sharing, but is there any way to prevent this from happening in the first place? I've searched and searched, but all I can find is information about how to remove the data after the fact, which I already know how to do, but it would sure be nice if it never got added in the...

zwekihoyy ,

I love when people post well known and obvious information. if you hadn't realized metadata is present then idk what to tell you.

zwekihoyy ,

they've done it for you by accident

zwekihoyy ,

to be fair you always could remove edge, it just legitimately broke a lot of windows apps

zwekihoyy ,

what do you think updates are for?? please stop spreading such terrible practices

zwekihoyy ,

you could have used winget or chocolatey as well.

fkn same

I am genuinely horrified to see how much data google collected from me

I created a google takeout and in that zip file I found some files containing a ton of data about me. It has logged every single page I visited while using the google search engine and chrome browser. It even logged every single time I opened an app on my old android phone. It even has VOICE RECORDINGS of me and a log of every...

zwekihoyy ,

while, yes, regardless of your privacy settings google still collects a sickening amount of data on you, much of these things (like voice recordings and location history) can be managed and disabled in the settings. if you wish to go further, grapheneos removes A LOT of tracking potential.

these should be opt in features, but one can opt out of much of them.

zwekihoyy ,

well if you have play services installed then google is gonna get some data on you.
