IIRC there's a workaround that involves symlinks and/or copying some json files into the Firefox folder under .var, but I don't quite remember how it works.
I solved the issues yesterday by building from source, which solved the crashing issue (guessing a packaging issue with the .deb version is one problem) and then after one restart of the app I was able to add my library. Works fine now.
I found that all I needed to do to add a library was close the app and reopen after the first time opening the version built from source. Built myself a layout similar to the Obsidian preset. Really nice customizable player! I have two recommendations: have some way for the Library Filter widget to show individual tracks so you can add them to a playlist, and have some way to actually view and edit the Playback Queue. Other than that, this is a great player!
Using an Ubuntu (22.04) based distro, I tried installing with the jammy .deb a couple times, which produced the constantly crashing result. I just built from source, which appears to have resolved the constant crashes, but I still can't add a library.
I tried it out. I like the idea of the fully customizable UI. I can't seem to get it to import anything as a library and it constantly crashes after roughly 5-10 minutes, though. Am I missing something or doing something wrong, or is that the expected behavior at this point in development?
I lean center-right myself (and yet somehow continue to use Lemmy) and still marvel at the complete lunacy of conspiracy theories about him that right-wingers can dream up.
I wouldn’t say it’s a bad browser for regular web browsing if you just want a vanilla browsing experience. It integrates well with KDE Plasma theming and does come with an ad blocker built in and the ability to customize the browser through scripting. Past that it just doesn’t have a lot of the bells and whistles (such as variety in extensions) that other browsers have. I prefer having at least a few privacy extensions and a better ad blocker installed so it’s a deal breaker for me for daily driving. If you don’t mind something more minimal like that it works just fine.
I would switch to Falkon as my main browser if it allowed for either Firefox or Chrome/Chromium extensions (I think it’s a Chromium base using QtWebEngine) but sadly it doesn’t allow for that, the actual working extension offerings are incredibly sparse, and the AdBlock built in is not nearly as good as uBlock or Privacy Badger, so I only keep it around for those few things that LibreWolf really messes up anymore. Looks great, but not a daily driver if you regularly use extensions, especially privacy-focused ones.
