Consent-O-Matic is a browser extension that auto-responds to all the #GDPR and similar consent popups with optimal user preferences.
Unlike the extension "I don't care about cookies" which just accepts all cookies, Consent-O-Matic clicks the prompts on your behalf to reject most of the cookies. You can also choose what to accept/reject in the preferences.
Available for Firefox, Chrome and others.
I've been using this on Firefox :firefox: for quite sometime now and it works great!
Their Github page has links to official extension stores: https://github.com/cavi-au/Consent-O-Matic#introduction

Nope. Apparently it’s not DNS. Just the recently updated #Safari. Works in Firefox, once I let it.

#Safari is such a good browser. The only thing that prevents me from using it: you cannot freely customize the search engine you want to use and are stuck with the five #Apple sanctioned players: Google, Bing, Yahoo, Ecosia and DuckDuckGo.
My search engines of choice are #BraveSearch and #Kagi.com.
Any ideas?
#GoogleDrive doesn't seem to like the latest #Safari very much.

Has #safari 16 dropped support for #themeColors using `<meta name="theme-color">`? i remember that Twitter and a lot of other websites used it immediately when it was available, but it doesn’t seem to be working anymore for me in my tests.
Huge list of new features in Safari 16.4. Updates to colour syntax look awesome.

I sometimes wish apps other than #Safari, such as #Pages, supported #TabGroups so I that could easily switch to a bunch of documents I’m using for a particular project without having to open each of them individually. But then isn’t that what #StageManager is for?
Unfortunately, SM fails to do that because SM window layouts (unlike Safari tab groups) do not persist between logins. I hope #Apple will fix this and make SM genuinely useful in the next version of #macOS, but I’m not holding my breath. #UX #UXFail

So much great stuff in today's #Safari 16.4 release - most importantly (to me) some direct rendering/CSS improvements like outlines following border-radius, button inputs respecting padding, font-size, etc by default, and margin-trim!
Now if only I could get the attention of #Safari / #WebKit devs to fix the #bug I reported at the start of the year in Feedback FB11931815 “SVG image using display-p3 renders as sRGB on macOS if used as a background image and it repeats”
Amazing how #Arc (#ArcBrowser) feels more polished than #Safari

I find that web developers need to implement inputmode more often (to customize virtual keyboard for phone, email, etc). Hey Safari, why don't you support it?! https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Global_attributes/inputmode #safari #browsers #html #forms #usability

I worked on a Windows machine for about ten years before I switched to a MacBook for the job that I started last year. In that time I think I launched #Safari once and it was by accident. Not sure what I am afraid of.
My work is done using #Chrome and personal browsing on #ArcBrowser.

Man did I invest hours to find out how to make this in Photoshop! The look of Mac OS X in 2001. When we used this on web sites, it forced us to cut all buttons as images. And yes, it was #HTML 3.01 <table> layouts for #NetscapeNavigator. #Safari did not even exist. Good old times. I'm suprised I still can do it. The iMac G3 restoration project brings back memories.

Safari 16.3 seems to have a number of serious bugs which is disappointing as I generally prefer it. Some frequent ones (which I don't see on Brave, my alternate browser) are:
a) Google search terms being invisible (didn't happen on previous versions of SafarI)
b) Text entry being randomly slowed to the point of showing what I type slower than one character per second).
c) Having problems playing embedded video content. Won't start, controls are unresponsive.

Viele Nutzer surfen in Safari ohne eine einzige Erweiterung – dabei lernt der Browser mit ihnen tolle Tricks. Wir stellen 25 davon für Mac, iPhone und iPad vor.
Maybe by the time I'm back from lunch someone who was also being driven mad by their inability to generate or save new passwords with #1Password 8 and #Safari will tell me what on earth I need to do besides the usual “uninstall, reinstall, restart" flailing about.
Specific symptom: Popup shows suggested password, clicking does nothing. Trying to make a password from the extension menu gives me “Unable to save generated password.”
I am a daily #Safari for one main reason: built-in (and optionally automatic) Reader View. #accessibility #a11y
Thank goodness: the latest Safari Tech Preview removed smooth scrolling when using Page Down / Page Up 😌 🙌

I just finished reviewing all the #TypeScript web lib changes coming from #Safari 16.4. Heck, that was HUGE. Both Apple and Microsoft should buy me a coffee. https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript-DOM-lib-generator/pull/1514
(A way for automatic feature detection for IDL dictionaries will make this process much better, but sadly there's no good general way that applies to all situations. https://github.com/whatwg/webidl/issues/107)
Recently, I've been figuring out how to get PCM audio (e.g. from game ports) playing nicely with wasm in the browser.
I've got it working and have cleaned it up enough to share. Hopefully this is useful to others who might want to do the same thing.

If anyone can make this work reliably in #Safari I'd appreciate it

@ethanschoonover @Migueldeicaza You can only share to News from #Safari. Other browsers do not display the News icon on their share sheets, even on the same URLs.
Except on #ArcInternet, for some reason. They worked out how to do it.
#Chrome updated to match #Safari battery life on M2 #MacBookPro

But there is one thing I prefer about running #Mastodon web in Safari vs running it as a standalone app: in Safari, 3rd-party links open in a new tab. Standalone they open in-app.
BTW, mobile #Safari has long had a nice feature that if a page opens in a new tab and you then hit the Back button before switching to other tabs, it just closes the new tab for you. If you don’t want it to close, just swipe the URL bar to get back to the page that opened it.

Their attention to detail and comprehensive explanations make it easy to appreciate the hard work that goes into #WebKit and #Safari every day.
Thank you for keeping us informed and inspired!

Web Push for iOS :
AT LAST.
My guess is Apple started to get tired of being sued every few months for its anti-trust policies and decided to add what was missing for Progressive Web Apps on their platforms: web notifications.
The industry will at last be able to develop complete Progressive Web Apps.
Next step is Safari renaming its "Add to Home Screen" button to "Install" if a service worker is detected, but we're allowed to dream a little...
