Moving my Git repositories

Due to the same reasons as everyone else, I am currently intensifying my efforts to move my Git repositories away from GitHub.

Most of my repos reside on codeberg now. All that is left are some repos used for contributions, and some where I didn't manage to migrate the CI so far.

This page is a placeholder to link in READMEs of projects I'm removing from GitHub. More to follow.

Remove ads for Mozilla services from Firefox

For some reason, Mozilla feels it's a good idea to litter Firefox with ads for their own value-added services. At least most of them can be disabled, usually by some about:config options.

  • Hide the "Try other protection tools from Mozilla" area in Firefox Account menu
    identity.fxaccounts.toolbar.pxiToolbarEnabled = true

  • Remove Pocket
    extensions.pocket.enabled = true

  • Remove Sponsored Links on New Tab Page
    browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.showSponsored = false
    browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.showSponsoredTopSites = false

(Alternative: Open New tab -> Click Settings icon (bottom right) -> Uncheck "Sponsored shortcuts"

(to be continued -- enshittification intensifies 🙄)

  • Fixed occasional error messages during scrolling in HexView
  • Provide flake for NixOS, you can run it with nix run github:luelista/pre_workbench.
