I’m curious about redirecting my Lemmy instance from https://lemmy.world/home/data_type/Post/listing_type/All/sort/New/page/1 to …/0 so that it stops scrolling. Another example; in the past I wanted a way to redirect www•reddit to old•reddit. I do stuff like this in a bash terminal all the time. What are the easiest techniques to achieve similar results in browsers? Obviously I’m asking for the same abstract functionality as a bash alias. I’m not thinking bash works in a browser or anything dumb like that.
Qutebrowser…? Pretty sure you want qutebrowser
https://beehaw.org/comment/405205 In this comment, @PenguinCoder@beehaw.org Redirector. EDIT: how do I mention user?
The primary device runs a privacy hardened version of chromium without extensions (Graphene/Vanadium). It also runs most traffic through an OpenWRT fork on a router. I’m just not sure how to create a network filter with redirection or what this is called in the correct terminology, or what other techniques exist.
You probably are unable to tag/mention the user because beehaw is defederated from .world and I created this post from a .world user account.
If you’re open to using extensions, u can use iceraven, it’s a firefox fork that allows more extensions and tries to make it more compatible with them, although they might not work. I just checked and redirector that was mentioned on the other comment is available there. I use it as my primary mobile browser.
You can use tampermonkey to do something like this. For example, here’s my script that redirects twitter to my nitter instance: https://github.com/ipha/userscripts/blob/master/twitter-redirect-nitter.user.js
This is tricky because I’m pretty sure lemmy is using history.pushState to change the URL and not actually navigating there in the traditional manner so you can’t really expect the script to run unless you refresh the page or paste the URL in directly.
Like others, I love Endeavor OS which is installed on my laptops. On my desktop I rotate between Endeavor OS, ArcoLInux, Manjaro (unstable branch), Debian (sid/unstable branch), and MX Linux Beta, all of which are solid (Syncthing to sync data between installs). All are KDE with the exception of Manjaro which is XFCE for nostalgia sake. KDEConnect for phone integration is one of my favorite features of KDE. I used to try and use Gnome which is usable with a lot of plugins, but I just don’t like it (it does have phone integration based on KDEConnect). I try a lot of distributions, and many do have issues and how I’ve arrived at my five favorites. I’ve come to like rolling releases with newer software, and it’s not an issue if you keep an eye on the forums. Once on my laptop an errant Arch GRUB update I missed caused me to have to use chroot with thumb drive, but not a big deal.
