I'm excited to release Just the Browser! It helps you remove AI features, sponsored content, shopping integrations, and other annoyances from desktop web browsers.
This project includes configuration files (group policies), a simple setup script, and guides for manual installation. It supports Chrome, Firefox, and Edge. Everything is open-source on GitHub.
@corbin Thank you for putting in all this effort!

I will share this on the Stop Gen AI website tomorrow.
Please check our group out.

Now, for even better privacy and security, we should have a Linux edition.

@thomas Android support and more Linux browsers would be cool, I've made issues for them: https://github.com/corbindavenport/just-the-browser/issues

@corbin Great project. Thanks. A great improvement might be to have the implementation in a Ubuntu/Debian package and to activate the Configuration by installing this package.

@Adam_Howard @corbin It's already there. I just ran it on Mint 22.2. It's just a shell script.

@corbin I got a chance to look at this and wow, it's really just that simple? I'm going to throw a copy of the Firefox .json file, text instructions, and link for updates in my "list of things to do after a reinstall to make the OS and apps behave" workflow

@corbin Will try later. Crazy that we have to start doing this...

Great easy way to get rid of AI in my firefox instances, thank you!
1 criticsim about the homepage:
It is not transparent, that the browser download links redirect to google/mozilla/microsoft servers with their original versions. Some naive users may think, it would be sufficient to (re-)download one of the browsers without copying the script.
So I don't share that link to non IT-affine people. -

@corbin Question: Have you removed anything that something like librewolf didn't already?

@corbin That’s a really cool resource!
Curious about Safari’s absence. Is it because there’s not much you’d change, or is it because it’s not easy the changes are hard to make? -

@corbin cool project! FYI your 'create an issue' link points to the wrong repo

@lxsameer I don't think so, but I haven't used LibreWolf recently so not 100% sure

@orfeo @shumann78 Controlla anche le app non ufficiali. A me piace Tusky (Android). Esistono anche interfacce web diverse. Phanpy è molta gettonata.

GPIO madness.
Dear Lazyweb, riddle me this:
1. Boot Pi with HDMI monitor attached: works fine.
2. Boot without monitor: all GPIO inputs "flap" about once a second.
3. Plug in monitor: 10 seconds later, inputs start behaving normally.
4. Unplug monitor: remains good. Until reboot.WTF?
Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.5, Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm) 12.11. Two different Pis, same behavior.

@eff@mastodon.social I have an iPhone I use a a standalone device to manage my insulin pump as a type 1 diabetic. I have very few other apps installed on that device and lockdown mode is enabled because I want to minimize the risk that a device with a drug could kill me being hacked into. No security is perfect but it provides some additional security protections that might help! I wish something similar was available for my Google Pixel device.
