“My long goodbye to Windows XP” (2022)
Hey, Congratulations on your upgrade to Windows 7!
Not 48 hours ago, I spoke highly of the benefits of Windows 7[1], as a user myself.
It is absolutely possible to use Windows 7 reasonably securely, if you take the appropriate precautions(again, see my comment)
> I can use the latest versions of Google Chrome
Firefox? Yes. Chrome? No.
Chromium 109 is the last version to support Windows 7. Here's the last working ungoogled variant [2].
Switch to LibreWolf[3] Firefox based browser with user.js modifications[3] pre-installed. Or if you don't trust librewolf, use Firefox and manually add the same user.js[4]
It's better for security than Chrome could ever hope to be.
Your web browser's javascript continue to be the predominant way for malware to make its entry. So just make sure to take the appropriate security precautions, as mentioned in my comment [1].
> When Firefox stopped receiving upgrades I switched to Mypal browser, an open source browser specially made for Windows XP. It is cruder than Google Chrome but does the job most of the time.
Have you tried K-Meleon on Windows XP[5]? It's Old Firefox(pre-Australis) based, and still gets updates.
Windows 7 is the last legit good Microsoft Operating System.
It truly is a wonder and a delight to use and modify.
Anyway, all the very best on your Windows 7 journey. May it serve you well.
Cheers!

ungoogled chromium harderning
I have been directly affected by it. It turns out the binaries distributed via winget on windows come from an apparently reliable source (https://github.com/macchrome/winchrome/releases) that has even changed some browser features. I found it out when I saw a button saying 'black' instead of 'back' on a 'confirm form resubmission' dialog box. I dug deeper and reproduced it with the help of a UG dev.

I miss the days of Google Chrome being the browser for minimalists. It seems every release adds another icon we can't get rid of.
I'm using Windows version, but there's also Linux version in another repo. https://github.com/macchrome/winchrome/releases/tag/v102.0.5005.63-6-r992738-Win64

Show HN: YouTube Shorts Redirector
I found now that Piped includes duration in the RSS so might script around that. Wonder if Invidious could add that metadata too.

Seeking Advice on Anonymous YouTube Browsing for Extended Sessions
For Safari (macOS or iOS/iPadOS) you could look into extensions like Vinegar or StopTheMadness, although you’ll likely need to work out if they’ll conflict with your other extensions. Failing that, an Invidious or Piped instance is likely your best bet.
