  • apparmor comes with several profiles, and if in your distro it doesn’t include one for librewolf, you can use the firefox one. And if there’s no available one and you would be interested in combine it with firejail then most probably firejail will come with with a profile for firefox or librewolf and usually with support for apparmor. Regardless of the distros, the arch wiki can guide you with apparmor and firejail. I recommend becoming familiar with both. Another option if there’s no profile on your distro is to look into another distro’s profile. ubuntu used include some software with apparmor out of the box so perhaps it’s a good source of profiles…

They want to enforce that if anyone uses their proprietary stuff the apps interacting with it must be from register developers, which automatically exclude any libre/free app storage on which developers don’t want to register to google. GrepheneOS being the exception.

    If you use microG with any custom rom, I guess that might work through fake registrations, but can’t be sure. But any custom rom without google play and services is supposed to be ok with f-droid. The thing is that google knows most if not all users need one app that depends on their stuff, perhaps bank apps, payment apps, and so on…



  • Just so you know, if you like freetube, you can configure the external player to mpv, which underneath uses yt-dlp when streaming, and use the button to load the external player. Of course one can also launch smplayer, which underneath is using mpv, which underneath…

    But the thing is content creators don’t move out of YT cause they’re there to monetize in the first place. So this thing seems never ending no matter alternatives like peertube exist.
