You probably meant a portable ARM Linux device; I think it is just difficult to get a team of Linux developers committed to fine-tuning the battery efficiency of the Linux (maybe a specific distro) for the tablet, so I am not hopeful about having an excellent battery life, as much as I would want it to happen.


The bot on github seems to be faulty and churning out empty issues. https://github.com/webcompat/web-bugs/issues/99778


No, that’s behaving as intended, and as the issue text describes. Look at the edit history of https://github.com/webcompat/web-bugs/issues/99713 to see the most recent example of a webcompat-bot issue that started in that shape, and was accepted, and so then its content was put in.


There seems to be another bot that tags them invalid and closes them.

These bots are doing 90% of my job ;)


For those complaining there is no adblocker, support for uBlock Origin is already implemented upstream. https://twitter.com/FirefoxPreview/status/121564800555626496...


What is "reference browser" in this context ? Is this the repo for Firefox Preview/fenix ? Or an upstream version of Firefox preview ?


https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/reference-browser

"A web browser reference implementation using Mozilla Android Components.

The Reference Browser is not a product intended to ship to end users. Instead it is a Technology Preview for many new mobile components that multiple teams at Mozilla are currently working on

It includes the Mozilla Web Platform via GeckoView, a new modern Firefox Accounts and Cloud Sync implementation and the new "Glean" telemetry library. All these components will be foundational for Mozilla's existing and upcoming Android products.

The Reference Browser can also be a starting point for your own new browser-like applications. It depends heavily on the Android Components project where most of the actual implementation lives. That project also includes many smaller sample applications."


My question was more among the line :

What is the relation between

https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/reference-browser

and

https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix

That Readme does not really answer that question.


Seems like an opposite of spacemacs - thus vim with emacs key bindings?


I believe it’s just Vim with lots of plugins and sane defaults


yeah,but it manages plugins via layer. and the layers are disabled by default.
