I think ao3 should have an audiobook feature. Like authors can choose to add audio versions of their fics attached to them for those who want to read with audio. The audiobooks can just be plain old text-to-speech generated readings like those that already exist as extensions, or the author can create their own.
I just think lots of people (myself included) would really benefit from something like while reading fics. Also i feel like it could even be an opportunity for fic authors to get creative with audio. Maybe add sound affects or even hidden lore in there who knows.
idk how feasible something like that would be and i don’t want something like this to damage the ao3 experience but idk this is just a thought i had.
#Just a thought#i know i could probably just use the text to speech thing on my phone#Or a browser extension or something#But i just feel like having something on the actual site would be cool

Does anyone know of a way to force a memory limit on Firefox for Android?
All of the methods I've seen are only for desktop (mobile doesn't have about:config) or people saying that you should leave the memory management to the OS (clearly not helpful) or people complaining about slowness or storage space or browser crashes (irrelevant, clogging up search results) or confusing ram with internal storage (who even decided to call internal storage memory in the first place??? As if RAM didn't already mean random access MEMORY).
I'm getting sick of Firefox suddenly using up all of the RAM and causing my entire phone to hard crash and reboot 😭 (not just a tab or browser crash).
My phone's fairly old (I've gotta upgrade soon due to the 3g shutoff and lack of VOLTE support) but that's still a while away and it's only Firefox that's causing this to happen, everything else runs fine (plus I'd still like to use this thing even when I upgrade!). Can't mess about in root until I upgrade because this era of phone punishes you if you do (and I don't want to break something in there and be out of a phone for several months! Again!)
#tetranymous.txt#Firefox#Firefox for Android#You'd think it'd check requested ram against free ram instead of trying to access memory that doesn't exist. YOU'D THINK.#Currently checking if any extensions have memory leaks#And if that doesn't work I may have to switch to something like fennec instead (has about:config)#Assuming that it doesn't pull a revanced and lock me out because of my OS version#Then I'd be forced to use *shudders* browser (yes that's really what it's called)#It shipped w the phone so it should work without issue. But it's... Really bad.#I've already tried reducing tabs. Still happens. I don't run it when other programs are open. Still happens. Thermals are fine!#I'm running out of things I can try :/

I'm ready to tear my hair out, I want to comfortably use Docs without staring into a flashbang, can someone recommend a functional dark mode for using google docs? All the extensions I've looked at just darken the page and makes the text unreadable so then the whole document has to be edited to change the font (pain in the ass) and/or does not function on the google docs selection page, like the list of my documents is still fuck off bright so it is irritating to move between documents
#kee speaks#i really just want something that is easy click and it does it#cause when i used extensions on chrome there was a 'dark reader' or something but it would change EVERY site i opened#so then it fucked with other stuff and i'd have to toggle it back and forth#exasperating the whole flashbang feeling cause i'd always forget#and the extension had a really stupid automation thing that would get reset every time the extension or the browser updated#whatever i already had a migraine last night and i'm on the verge again but i want to write so i just need some help having things be dark#firefox or chrome i don't give a fuck at this point#i'm so annoyed that this isn't something that is built in to these sites yet#like google settings and search and such can all be dark mode#but not docs or sheets??

not sure if anyone else is equally as obsessed with trying to get site layouts to look like their "old" versions as i am but does anyone possibly have a way to get tumblr to look "old?" like, with the lines on the side of posts for the reblogs and the little triangle on the side that makes it look like a speech bubble and stuff, because ive seen extremely recent screenshots that have them like that but ive had no luck in finding an extension to make it look like that. ive seen old posts which indicate that xkit used to have a feature that made it look like that, but it doesnt seem to have that feature anymore. if anyone knows of anything please lmk bc ive been trying to get all the websites i frequent to look old (i use firefox btw if that helps anything)
#random question#idk what i should tag#and idk how to reach the right people about something like this#browser extensions#firefox addons#see sometimes i THINK im super tech savvy but then things like this arise and i realize there is still much i do not know

TL;DR
The Honey browser extension not only makes money by poaching affiliate commissions from the very influencers it partners with, even when it doesn't find any coupons, it's guilty of straight-up fraud. It's advertised as scouring the internet to find the best coupons for a given site and when it doesn't find any, assures users that they already have the best price. But in actuality, it lies about there not being any coupons or better coupons than the ones it automatically applied for you, while selling itself to business that it partners with on the basis that it will get them more money by tricking shoppers into not looking for better coupons so they spend more money. The ending of this video seems to be teasing a part 2, but is already strongly implying that Honey also creates unauthorized discounts costing businesses it partners with (likely small independent operations) thousands of dollars in lost revenue.
#honey#honey browser extension#fraud#like everyone else#i always thought there was something sus#and wondered how it made money#but just assumed it was selling your data#like literally everyone else#turns out it was way worse#for advertisers businesses and users alike#Youtube

I was pissed at RT for removing things from youtube to put back on their shitty shite, but then I tried to go "archive" some videos from their site and they seem to have spent more time just hiding the sources of their videos so you can't dl them than they did making an actually functionally working website and now I'm mad as all hell about it
https://pastedownload.com/roosterteeth-video-downloader/
#your suffering is now over#Anonymous#ask box 360#i still use youtube-dl for the rt site because between site updates#something must've changed to cause like. downloader extensions for web browsers to not work anymore#i had a few download sites bookmarked as backup for situations like that :3c

finally got my new computer and made the move to firefox. there's only 4 things i liked more with opera gx so far and those are: 1) getting to have a wallpaper for a new tab 2) getting to see if any of the people i follow on twitch are live by just glancing to the sidebar (this one's not too bad but i did catch a lot of streams this way since twitch hates giving me notifs) 3) i could close all my tabs but the browser wouldn't close because of the gx corner and, 4) the gx corner. i like free games. a lot but hey if anyone's got good recommendations for ways i can replace these functions through extensions or whatever i'll gladly take em. im glad to not be using a chromium based browser anymore and really really don't wanna switch back
#soltalk#opera gx#opera#firefox#mozilla#mozilla firefox#browser#browsers#web browsers#chromium#browser extension#i feel like an instagrammer putting all these tags. i rly do just want to know if there r alternatives tho so tags help people see that lol#i'll even take like. a website that does what gx corner did#all i used it for was the free games anyways. ill just bookmark it or pin it or something#one thing im very much loving is the tab pickup thing#and the fact that there are some similar features to opera like the reopening all tabs if you close the window setting#or the shortcuts which i use instead of bookmarks bc i dont like bookmarks#could not tell you why#oya i also miss having discord in the sidebar but i didnt use that as much

*strangles the person who wrote the continuing education unit quiz I'm taking*
if this. is supposed to be on material in this pdf I've downloaded. then you should maybe think about
PUTTING THAT INFORMATION IN THE FUCKING PDF, YOU STUPID ASSHOLE
#like. the whole point of this is that i'm supposed to be able to read the pdf and get the answers from there.#why are you asking me for a diagnosis code that's not listed there. do you know how many diagnosis codes exist.#why should i have to pull out a coding book or some shit for an answer that should be in the pdf YOU FUCKING PROVIDED#THAT I AM BEING QUIZZED ON#FUCK YOU#this isn't even touching on how fucking aggravating it is that the tab with the quiz auto-refreshes if you look at something else#like say#the pdf you're being quizzed on#and then return to the quiz tab#because why not make me start over every time#i had to get a whole ass browser extension just to stop it#i am so. fucking angry rn.

i do not understand why everyone says Firefox is so great on mobile
its one of the worst mobile browsers ive used
i keep seing people say 'oh its so fast, you can use all the extensions you need, everythinga so much smoother' and i dont know what version yall are using but that aint the case in my experience
for me i cant seem to save pictures, you have a very small selection of extensions to choose from, half the pages dont load, and the ones that do load dont work
theres so many times i tried to use firefox to download something and the page wont work, like the download button is unclickable or never shows up
then i use it in chrome and it goes right through
so idk if people are literally just saying it so people dont use chrome, understandable because chrome/Google are the worst, or if it just hates specifically me
but until the day it actually functions im stuck using chrome or whatever chrome equivalent if i ever find one that works better
#even on computer Firefox isnt great i dont know why people insist its flawless or whatever#like its slow its kinda clunky its not this amazing spectacular browser that works so much better than the rest#it works fine#adding extensions slows it down which is something i do not see people mention#not to say its no good its a good browser#but my main reason for using it isnt that its way better faster smoother#i use it because chrome is terrible#thats the biggest factor in my use of firefox for desktop#if chrome didn't suck i probably would not be using it

choose violence: 3 + 8
3. screenshot or description of the worst take you've seen on tumblr
All three asks I got for this ask meme wanted to know this one lmao. Sadly I have a bad memory so I had to scroll through the takes I've screenshotted and sent to my friends to make fun of, and while I'd like to stress that this is from Forever ago, and that I do not remember who posted it or what the context was: one screenshot stated that after Barbara, Cass's healthiest relationship was with her father. Now, I don't know how exactly you'd have to manipulate to bracket to have David Cain be in the running for 'healthiest relationship with Cassandra Cain', but he'd still lose. Literally the entire batfam, including Bruce and Jason fucking Todd, has a healthier relationship with Cass than David Cain. Lady Shiva has a healthier relationship with Cass. I don't know if this is The Worst Take Ever but it's certainly up there.
8. common fandom opinion that everyone is wrong about
I mean there are a Lot but everyone's heard the complaints about fanon fans' opinions by now so let's do a spicier one. I think it's weird that everyone (on the Deathstroke Hater side of the fandom) unanimously classifies Deathstroke as an abusive/bad dad to Joey and Grant prior to the throat cutting incident.
I'm sure there's canon that contradicts it (I've never read a Deathstroke solo ever because I think it'd be miserable) but in NTT he is literally textually a good dad prior to All That. And I recognize that this is because he's Wolfman's specialest little boy more than anything but I still think it's significantly more interesting for literally the entire Wilson family but especially Joey if Deathstroke was like, legitimately a pretty good dad right up until he weighed his son's life against his ego and found his son's life wanting. The whiplash between 'absent and doesn't quite get Joey but genuinely loving and trying' and 'lets his son's throat get cut for no good reason and then immediately tries to bail without visiting him in the hospital with the full expectancy that his wife will just take this' is really compelling to me. And there seems to be this universal acceptance that Deathstroke was a bad/abusive dad prior to All That and I just don't understand why people state that so confidently when at least one version of canon outright contradicts it.
That said anyone who considers Deathstroke a good or even mediocre dad is even more wrong because he did, in fact, do All That and also we haven't even talked about Rose Wilson so. L. So yeah everyone is wrong about Deathstroke's parenting capabilities except me.
#my posts#asks#i HATE the new tumblr editor i HATE it#it has SO MANY bugs for me like i cannot use the enter key it glitches out when i try to copy paste something half the time#it refuses to let me cut/backspace text half the time it's just legitimately nigh impossible to work with bc it's fucking BROKEN for me#I tried to contact support about specifically the enter key issue bc that's KILLING me and they went 'huh. that's weird.'#'idk what that's about tho. have you tried clearing your cache?'#like wow. thanks.#i guess i'll fucking sit down and see if it's one of my browser extensions causing this one of these days#bc that's the only thing i can think of that might be the issue#until then. hate. hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate

I'm positive I have made this post before but it's so annoying to me what last.fm became. I keep saying someone should make a spiritual successor to what it was, and I keep getting aggravated that I have the ability to just make it my goddamn self and I'm not currently doing that.
Maybe that will be my yearly project. Maybe I have to be the change I wanna see in the world.
#It honestly is not incredibly difficult to get something up and going#I've built social media sites already thats not the hard part#never said I had users but I have built them#Need a way to actually track songs and to sort out random shit like someone watching anime#but would I make it a desktop program/android app?#or a browser extension?#many things to think about#hm. dammit.

Gotta love going on AO3 to either get inspiration or just enjoy ourselves and compliment some people's art, and then getting reminded how specific our triggers are :')
#sometimes it's a really great way to help us get into the psychology of the characters before we write#but then sometimes we hit a trigger and it's like#WHOOPS your motivation to write is now gone#for somewhere between an hour from now and next month#and it's so specific idk that it's possible to tag for it#and it's certainly not practical to avoid every M-rated NieR fic out there#I'm hoping there's like... a browser extension or something#but I don't want to go looking for it rn and get even more triggered#so in the meantime we'll just try to ground ourselves ig...#sorentxt#2btxt

Really wish there was a way to completely remove posts with certain blocked tags from your dash. Like blocking for triggers can only do so much when a mutual is having a hyperfixation moment and now your whole dash is blocked posts with your triggers listed over and over, eventually ruining the effect of blocking the tags and setting you off through just the words alone
#we're sure theres a browser extension or something but we dont exactly have access to a computer#nor have we ever been in the habit of using tumblr through a computer#it seems like a pretty basic thing to ask for in terms of blocking a tag#like maybe selecting which tags dont show up at all is a bit much. far too convenient. tumblr would never.#but shouldnt there be an option to say whether or not you want the posts to show up?#like 'yes i want the posts to be accessible' or 'no i dont want the posts to be accessible'#a simple switch
