Linux Touchpad Like MacBook Update: 2023 Progress on Smooth Scrolling
If you want to have mouse scroll wheel acceleration, you might be interested in a small project of mine: https://github.com/albertz/mouse-scroll-wheel-acceleration-u...
I'm using this all the time on non-Mac platforms. Once you get used to this, it's hard to get back.
But I'm still waiting that such a feature gets more built into the core, e.g. libinput or so.

Scrollbars Are Becoming a Problem
Regarding quickly scrolling around in a large document, there is also scroll wheel acceleration, i.e. the users finger scroll speed is not just a linear function mapped onto the software scroll speed but rather it can accelerate.
MacOS, iOS and Android have this anyway, and a few custom software as well.
I implemented a cross platform user-space variant of this, to get mouse scroll wheel acceleration. You can even use this in addition to the native scroll wheel acceleration on MacOS.

how do i make the touchpad not garbage on a macbook pro running ubuntu
Turn on adaptive acceleration. Enable gestures. Look into this project that ports macOS-style scrolling acceleration to X11 and Wayland: https://github.com/albertz/mouse-scroll-wheel-acceleration-userspace

Show HN: iPod Clickwheel.js
I never had an iPod, but I wonder, did it use some acceleration scheme? I.e. your physical scroll speed was not just linearly mapped to the virtual scroll speed but some quadratic or even exponential scheme?
Because I know that they do the same on OSX for scrolling, i.e. scrolling has an acceleration scheme, which I very much enjoy, and always miss when I'm on other operating systems.
For that reason, I implemented such scroll acceleration in user space. Some further details and references are in the README. https://github.com/albertz/mouse-scroll-wheel-acceleration-u...

Having a really hard time switching to Linux...
Workaround: https://github.com/albertz/mouse-scroll-wheel-acceleration-userspace. Enables inertia in Chromium and Qt apps, but breaks it in GTK apps (fun!).

So as I was browsing Google and KDE's Reddit community, I found out that lots of users having problems with annoyingly slow scrolling speed in KDE, or other Linux-Based OS. So I decided to make a quick guide on how to fix that:D Hope you will find this guide helpful!
Good video, but I find https://github.com/albertz/mouse-scroll-wheel-acceleration-userspace a much better solution.

The Great Suspender once again contains malware
Happened in (2021)[https://github.com/greatsuspender/thegreatsuspender/issues/1...], and then a few others have forked the extension and tried to revive it, only to eventually sell to nefarious owners or sell user data themselves

Great suspender contains malware, what to do next?
I went to github and downloaded the last known "good version, installed it manually."

People often recommend open source apps for malware free apps. But has there ever been a case where a *popular* open source project was found to be malicious after some time?

> TLDR: The old maintainer appears to have sold the extension to parties unknown, who have malicious intent to exploit the users of this extension in advertising fraud, tracking, and more. In v7.1.8 of the extension (published to the web store but NOT to GitHub), arbitrary code was executed from a remote server, which appeared to be used to commit a variety of tracking and fraud actions. After Microsoft removed it from Edge for malware, v7.1.9 was created without this code: that has been the code distributed by the web store since November, and it does not appear to load the compromised script. However, the malicious maintainer remains in control, however, and can introduce an update at any time. It further appears that, while v7.1.9 was what was listed on the store, those who had the hostile v7.1.8 installed did NOT automatically receive the malware-removing update, and continued running the hostile code until Google force-disabled the extension.

Is the SingleFile extension flagged as high risk by ChromeStats (link), just because of the nature of it saving your page ?
For what it is worth, you may have heard of the Great Suspender incident (https://github.com/greatsuspender/thegreatsuspender/issues/1263). It was used by millions, and was also open source on GitHub, but it could still end up becoming malicious.

Behold the Android-Windows ecosystem.
Long ass comment: That is not true for the most part. While the increased amount of individuals working of an OSS project may lead to better vulnerability detection according to both parties of the closed-source/proprietary debate, it doesn't lead to a massively more secure software overall. Not all reviewers have the similar experience or expertise and, because of it, not everyone will be able to review, identify or patch any flaws or vulnerability of a specific software since it may require other skills beyond just basic programming skills such as network or cryptographic skills. [1] Some even suggested that the large number of users contributing to the project can lead people "into a false sense of security." [2] Overall, some papers conclude that being an open source software or a proprietary software isn't an important factor for security and suggest considering other factors, such as the particular vendor/maintainer that controls the entire process. [3] After all, what if the maintainer decides to sabotage their own code? What if the project was sold to another maintainer for its own shaddy needs?
