Firefox really struggle with demo pages of text-to-video models because of the large numbers of videos in the page in my experience, this page seems to work quite fine for me tho.
>Firefox makes up about 90 percent of Mozilla’s revenue, according to Muhlheim, the finance chief for the organization’s for-profit arm — which in turn helps fund the nonprofit Mozilla Foundation. About 85 percent of that revenue comes from its deal with Google, he added.
What people usually say is that Google merely wants Firefox to survive for anti-competitive reasons. Presumably that does not necessitate it actually being used (or be usable).
Hot take: Google keeps Mozilla/Firefox alive through the default search engine placement (which makes Mozilla millions each year) so they don't get designated as a monopoly with their browser.
Apple forcing users to use their own browser/browsing engine doesn't disprove my argument IMO, virtually nobody outside the apple ecosystem uses Safari, and outside the apple ecosystem is something between 80-90% of internet users.
I wasn't saying that Apple is just as monopolistic as Google; I was saying that Google is paying Apple orders of magnitude more than it is paying Mozilla. According to your argument, that would mean that Google is trying to keep Apple/Safari alive (which of course is absurd - Apple doesn't need that money to stay alive).
It could be a privacy risk, though, because by directly moving a URL (and all its parameters) to another profile, it might be easy to link them together on the server side. It’s not necessarily a problem, but it’s definitely important to be aware of, since one of the main uses of profiles is precisely isolation for privacy and security.
One nice thing about Ventoy is that you can still use the USB stick as a regular drive for other files — it doesn’t interfere with the ISOs you can boot from
Another approach I recently discovered is an old but beautiful Unix-style tool for renaming files: vidir - edit a directory in your text editor. It’s part of the moreutils suite [1].
You get the list of filenames in your editor – edit them as you like, save, exit, and it renames the files. It uses whatever editor is set in your $EDITOR env var, so it doesn’t have to be vi/vim.
You can also pipe in a list of files, e.g. `find . -type f | vidir -`, to edit just the files you want - and you can even change paths (add, rename, remove directories) in the editor to move files around easily.
To try it quickly on macOS: `brew install moreutils`

I'm not sure how "powerful" vidir is, but I recently found this functionality in yazi [1] and it became one of those "you think you don't need it until you try it" features
if you can forgive a shameless plug, I wrote https://github.com/ddlsmurf/fled some time ago and it serves me very well to this day. (It's not half as advanced as OP's tool but still useful)
Here's a cleaned up version of my config... I also mapped global cmd-shift-1/2/i to focus my profile and incognito windows (and create a window if none already existed):
I love that it’s a command line tool — I’ll try it soon.
I use OpenIn for this [1] (it’s paid, but a one-time purchase at a very reasonable price). It works with URLs too, supports “browser profiles”, and lets you create logic using JavaScript (e.g., do X if the filename contains Y, or do Z if a modifier key is pressed).
It works really well and even has the ability to “fix” what external apps have changed. I plan to use this on new Macs to reconstruct my app associations and rules.
I do wish the rules were defined in plain text files — sometimes it’s hard to follow the logic through the UI and the way it handles things.
Another comment mentions Hammerspoon (which I used in the past — it was very nice). Maybe I can rebuild part of my current setup with it.
I loveee hammerspoon. And had a subscription to OpenIn a bit back. Advanced scripting isn’t going to happen, even paging out to another script. Recently committed to Regex which would cover most of that. I’ll look into how it “fixes” old associations.
Walking back my regex commitment, just a heads-up/apology if you had your hopes up. Want this to stay as a CLI and not a dynamic app. Let me know if there's anything else you could see useful that would fit within that scope!
I’ve been burned a few times by these clients — difficult backups, changing licensing/commercial terms, hard to version — so now I prefer a few simple .http files that I can version in Git and easily read, even if the extension disappears.
