I used to be a “if I don’t need it, close it” guy. Now? 25 tabs open – a mix of news articles, code repos, drafts and random stuff I swore I’d revisit… only I don’t remember why. But it seems Firefox has a fix for my forgetfulness in the works: Tab Notes. As the name suggests, Tab Notes are small text notes you can attach to any tab.

Mozilla начала формирование rpm-пакетов с ночными сборками Firefox Разработчики из компании Mozilla объявили о создании официального репозитория с rpm-пакетами, позволяющими установить ночные сборки Firefox в openSUSE, SUSE, Fedora, RHEL, CentOS и различных RHEL-подобных дистрибутивах. Подобный репозиторий с deb-пакетами для Debian и Ubuntu предоставляется с 2023 года. Использование rpm-репозитория позволяет задействовать штатные для дистрибутивов возможности для установки и обновления пакетов. При сборке пакетов в компиляторе включены дополнительные оптимизации, а также флаги для усиления безопасности. Публикация сборок интегрирована в основной процесс подготовки релизов Firefox. В состав включён .desktop-файл для размещения ярлыка на рабочем столе и в меню дистрибутива. Для установки ночных сборок Firefox из репозитория можно использовать команды: Fedora: sudo dnf config-manager addrepo --id=mozilla --set=baseurl=https://packages.mozilla.org/rpm/firefox --set=gpgcheck=0 --set=repo_gpgcheck=0 sudo dnf makecache --refresh sudo dnf install firefox-nightly openSUSE, SUSE Linux: sudo zypper ar -G https://packages.mozilla.org/rpm/firefox mozilla sudo zypper refresh sudo zypper install firefox-nightly RHEL, CentOS, Rocky Linux, Alma Linux, Oracle Linux: sudo tee /etc/yum.repos.d/mozilla.repo > /dev/null < EOF [mozilla] name=Mozilla Packages baseurl=https://packages.mozilla.org/rpm/firefox enabled=1 repo_gpgcheck=0 gpgcheck=0 EOF sudo dnf makecache --refresh sudo dnf install firefox-nightly  firefox, mozilla, rpm 👉@sysadminoff https://www.linux.org.ru/news/mozilla/18202183
