> Firefox now supports simultaneously watching multiple videos in Picture-in-Picture. Is Adderall the new Aspirin? Or is there some WFH use here that I'm missing.
This new release also includes new ads, seems they forgot to put that in the release notes: https://twitter.com/CohanRobinson/status/1364172683118866433
Say what you want about Safari being outdated etc. but at least they’re not going to pull shit like this.
Wow, Ctrl+P has now started to open the proper print-interface with a preview! I've helped loads of people over the years complaining about printing in Fx vs Chrome. It used to be so in Fx that selecting Print from the menu opened an interface for printing (ala Chrome), but pressing Ctrl+P just opened standard OS print dialog. So power users never saw the nice print preview.
As someone who always used the Ctrl-P keyboard shortcut, I never even knew that a print-with-preview interface existed in Firefox.
I wonder if Total Cookie Protection is unnecessary if I have First Party Isolation enabled already

When I watched YouTube regularly I would often have multiple videos going. Some people talk slowly and YouTube encourages filler in order to hit the 10 minute mark. When most of the videos are like this you can definitely have a couple monologues, some music, and something to read just fine.
I wonder if the web engine development pretty much stopped, or developer notes are just less detailed over the last year or so. Those are a shadow of the former self, certainly.

Note also that release schedule is now 4 weeks instead of 6 weeks. Hence each release might feel "smaller".

This Firefox changelogs are awesome to know big improvements and new features on a surface level.
For Chrome I didn't find a proper way to follow the releases even if it has some RSS feeds, I follow the RSS feed of Chrome Releases blog [1] with a tag filter [2] but can't exclude the several point releases, and also the changelogs are not very informative [3]. And the Chrome blog [4] I get some feature announcements but is a mix bag.
