Hi! I’m Katherine, or webkitten. I’ve been on the internet since our family got our first computer - a Tandy Sensation.
Yes, I went to computer camp as a kid and learned how to program BASIC on Radio Shack TRS-80 Model 4.
I’m trans, queer, and bisexual. #actuallyautistic
I started programming with PHP in the mid 90s and haven’t stopped. I’m an advocate for the open web; I used Netscape as long as I can remember.
I have an obsession with Hello Kitty, Moogles, and Squishmallows.

The old extension platform before the switch to WebExtensions. I was just saying Firefox pre-Quantum was better than post-Quantum (after the switch to WebExtensions and away from XUL extensions).
I use Fennec and Nightly on Android, mostly because of extensions. On desktop, I’ve been using Vivaldi.
Personally I feel that XUL Gecko > Vivaldi Chromium > Current Gecko. Especially since Vivaldi’s built in tracker and ad blocker is really good and Chromium feels much smoother than current Gecko. I do hate that it’s propping up Chromium market-share, but at least I can set up Vivaldi to use their own custom user agent.
I feel that Gecko/Firefox lost so much with the switch away from XUL and to WebExtensions.
And they’re still probably better than me. :(
I have yet to hear an clear argument about why it’s time to evolve into an AI browser or how evolving into an AI browser can improve my day to day life.
