@cuchaz How does this compare to that google scheme to put FloC in chrome?

I don't have that setting, (ff128, distro package) but I disabled it in about:config.

@griibor Wow, that's a really good question. I don't know enough about either tech to give a good answer, but if you made me guess, I'd say they both sound pretty similar. In goal, if not implementation.

@griibor Also, what distro are you on? Linux Mint here, so I imagine everything Debian related would have the setting in 128?

@cuchaz ubuntu 23.10 They do separate packages to debian.

@cuchaz wait, no. I just found it, didn't see it when I used the search box. (only searched the setting name, not the heading)

@griibor Mint is downstream of Ubuntu. Weird that I get the setting and you don't. Maybe Mint pulls Firefox from Debian and not Ubuntu.

@griibor @cuchaz I was thinking that this sounded similar to FLoC as well, but not having taken a look at Firefox's... "feature"? I can't really say either.
