WTF is up with ETH gas fees!
Gas fees are not at 1000 gwei all the time, as some screenshots might suggest. You can see the historic average gas price on gasnow.org

There's your first mistake. Secondly, be in no doubt that BTC maxi culture isn't just some "slightly over the top allegiance". It genuinely is like a batshit crazy religious cult, but also organized. Check it out: https://www.gasnow.org has been purchased and now points to bitcoin.org. Crazy people do shit like that.

How do I factor in ETH gas when trading on uniswap?
swapping looks like its about 186 USD in fees so I would be aware of that , found this according to this site, be aware that site is going away in about 5 days. Also another thing to be aware as of right now eth gas fees are ridiculous 500+
-
Network Fees
also for exchanges not listed there like coinbase , who uses whatever network fees are when you do exchange, you can look here to see how much swap fee would be relatively speaking. Gas fees aren't really high right now so it may not be best judge of what you or your dad would be paying to transfer.
-
Is there any way to check when the gas fees will be the lowest?
There are websites like this where you can view the fluctuation at certain times in the past week. Not necessary though as the lowest every week is pretty consistently 2-3am EST on mondays and Tuesdays

It is here - Token Bridge is open!

Please don't go gasnow!
This was my go to site to check gas prices when I was thinking of buying a particular token, as it shows at a glance approximately what it would cost in fees https://www.gasnow.org

Yesterday someone posted about alternatives to gasnow.org since they are calling it quits. The gas estimator service from Blocknative (blocknative.com/gas-estimator) was mentioned.

Some notes on Firefox's media autoplay settings in practice as of Firefox 124

Brave's AI assistant now integrates with PDFs and Google Drive
If ads, in particular on YouTube, are the problem, anything Chromium-based is probably only going to get worse and worse (see [1] and [2]). So that basically leaves you with Firefox and Safari.
I work for Mozilla (speaking for myself, of course), so I'll leave you to guess which I'd recommend :P

What are the compelling advantages of Chrome nowadays?
Chrome is working to limit the capabilities of ad blockers:
https://www.malwarebytes.com/blog/news/2023/11/chrome-pushes...
Whereas a compelling advantage of Firefox is that uBlock Origin works best in Firefox:
https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/uBlock-Origin-works-b...
Advertising networks have often been vectors for malware. Using an ad blocker is an important security measure. Even the FBI recommends ad blockers:

Brave Leo now uses Mixtral 8x7B as default
> It allows for 30,000 dynamic rules
That is not what we mean by dynamic filters. From https://developer.chrome.com/blog/improvements-to-content-fi...
> However, to support more frequent updates and user-defined rules, extensions can add rules dynamically too, without their developers having to upload a new version of the extension to the Chrome Web Store.
What Chrome is talking about is the ability to specify rules at runtime. What critics of Manifest V3 are talking about is not the ability to dynamically add rules (although that can be an issue), it is the ability to add dynamic rules -- ie rules that analyze and rewrite requests in the style of the blockingWebRequest permission.
It's a little deceptive to claim that the concerns here are outdated and to point to vague terminology that sounds like it's correcting the problem, but on actual inspection turns out to be entirely separate functionality from what the GP was talking about.
> Giving this ability to extensions can slow down the browser for the user. These ads can still be blocked through other means.
This is the debate; most of the adblocking community disagrees with this assertion. uBO maintains a list of some common features that are already not possible to support in Chrome ( https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/uBlock-Origin-works-b... ) and has written about features that are not able to be supported via Chrome's current V3 API ( https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBOL-home/wiki/Frequently-as... ). Of particular note are filtering for large media elements (I use this a lot on mobile Firefox, it's great for reducing page size), and top-level filtering of domains/fonts.

> "Its happened before"
> That's not an argument
It's a subheading to "2. Browser engine monopoly". The subsection's purpose is describing how bad things were during the IE monopoly to reinforce that it's something to be avoided.
> in fact you could counter-argue that IE left a lot of technical debt
That would be agreeing with the article, unless I understand what you mean.
> On top of that, the internet was very different back then.
In a way that now makes it harder for truly new competing engines to pop up due to increased complexity of the web.
> I'm still not convinced, why would I change my browser?
The points made in the article are:
* Increased privacy, opposed to willingly giving your data to an ad-tech company
* Helps avoid a browser engine monopoly which would effectively let Google dictate web standards
* Itβs fast and has a nice user interface
Onto which I'd add:
* Content blockers work best on Firefox (https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/uBlock-Origin-works-b...), doubly so when Manifest V3 rolls out
* Allows more customization of interface and home page
* UX improvements, like the clutter-free reader mode, aren't vetoed to protect search revenue as with Chrome (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37675467)

Ask HN: Is Firefox team too small to do serious security tests?
Advertising networks are vectors for malware:
https://www.cisecurity.org/insights/blog/malvertising

https://theconversation.com/spyware-can-infect-your-phone-or...
So if you're concerned about security then you want the browser with the best ad blocker.
