It’s mostly from clicking links on Lemmy… sometimes the content isn’t what I would expect or there isn’t enough information to even have an expectation before clicking. After clicking there are sometimes things that pop up that I don’t want in my history. Another common use case is that a new porn site will pop up in the Lemmy feed and I don’t want to see it. In order to block it I have to visit the page. So after I block the page I clear my history.
Are you deciding afterwards that you want to forget those pages?
Frequently, yes… There’s also some pages/content on sites where you have to be logged in. Yeah, you could go private and login, but that’s just more steps. I just want to hit a button and have it nuke the last 5 minutes of my browsing without closing my current tabs/browsers.
No, I’m using the ‘Forget about some browsing history’ button. You can selectively remove some entries just from history, but that still leaves them in your recent tabs list. If you just want the last 5 minutes of browsing gone then you have to do the rewind and that closes all tabs/instances.
There’s no one thing that is a show-stopper… just little annoyances.
It’s not firefox’s fault, but I still use music.youtube.com and google hangouts and there’s no option to treat them like standalone apps like there is with chrome.
I switched to Firefox about a month ago for personal use. It’s nearly impossible for me to quit using Chrome, though, due to work.
I don’t hate Firefox, but it does absolutely do some stupid shit that I don’t like.
I’m starting to question my move to Firefox from Chrome… Firefox is doing some really stupid stuff.
We, a developer team, had a fish at work. Being developers it was a Beta fish. And, of course, we named it Masta.
OK… I’m wrong and I take it back… have never, ever seen that logo before and expected the donkey to counter the elephant.
No, and it’s stupid to suggest they would.
You’re so close to getting it… who do you suppose will be pursued for the money? If you have more of the ‘who’, that will encourage faster/greater enshitification as a natural part of the pursuit.
Why do we want to? They’ll just lower the overall quality and bring on the enshitification.
Congrats!

How did it go?
Yes, it’s a thing that happens. It’s quite common for an over-qualified person to be bored, hard to work with, and just picking up a paycheck while they’re looking for different work. Hiring an employee is expensive. If you can’t keep them for a while and/or they’re not a good fit for the team then you can be better off just leaving the position vacant.
Worth noting and not crazy important for an entry level position. Double true if there are limited options available. Take the job, learn some skills (including how to work in a bad environment) and then look for and move on to better opportunities. Caveat: Just don’t take one of these roles with a place where it’s going to stereotype you and/or give you no transferable skills/knowledge.
Don’t try to bullshit your way through anything. It’s actually a strength to admit that you don’t know something. Bonus points if you can describe the resources you would use to learn the answer.
Almost a repeat of the first one, but slightly different. Don’t play buzzword bingo or you’ll sound like the 5th grader that just learned a new curse word and is showing it off on the playground. It’s fine to use the industry jargon in appropriate ways; just be sure you know them.
It’s an entry level position. The kind of skills and initiative they’re going to be looking for is the desire to learn, the ability to correct/improve documentation, understanding/following procedures, thoughtful suggestions for improvements, and having enough confidence and competence that they don’t have to babysit you constantly.
Networking / servers / security really covers a lot of ground and it leaves me wondering exactly what it is you’re saying you’d like to do. Give some thought about how this entry level position helps you build your skills on your path to your ultimate goal and how you’ll provide value along the way.
Hmmm… maybe. It would still be easier to just forget the past five minutes without actually closing whatever I have open in the browser. I also still wish I could just tell it to not track closed tabs at all.
