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

@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

@lasse Thanks, fixed that!

Is it because there’s not much you’d change, or is it because it’s not easy the changes are hard to make?@Cykelero I haven't checked if Safari has any useful options hidden behind management policies. There's also less of a need for forced settings because AFAIK it doesn't quietly revert your settings later, like Edge does.

@corbin Makes sense. Thank you for making this!

@corbin Is there a way to confirm that it’s been installed correctly and is working?

Well this sucks. We had the social media account for our podcast on horrorhub.club which appears to have shut down. I don't think we have a way to transfer any information and I guess we need to find an instance.

In the countryside, there are rituals that have endured for hundreds of years, unchanged.
This elderly woman, her body bent by time and hard work, walks each day to meet her chickens - who roam freely across a vast open space.
She gathers a few branches and leaves, then returns to fetch the food she’ll give them, to complement what they’ve already foraged in nature.The chickens, friendly and orderly, follow her all the while.
And watching them, I’m reminded of people who are no longer here - people who were part of my life for a long time, who lived those same rituals, even if hundreds of kilometers away.Even as everything around us changes, there are places that never do.
