- Various issues have led to me to try other browsers. I used *[[Microsoft Edge]]*, but I really dislike how it inherits *[[Chromium]]*’s 90-day history retention.
  - *[[Firefox]]* is *Firefox*. It’s good until there’s that one page that wasn’t tested with it. *WebGL* performance is only decent. Either way, I’m specifically using *Firefox Developer Edition*. And while setting it up for beyond testing web pages:
      - *[[Rayleigh Moderation]]* is broken in various ways. Probably just the fault of mine. But I’m not in the mood to touch some frontend code.
  - Tried out *[[Vivaldi]]*. Somehow, *Rayleigh Moderation* is broken once again. This time, it was about ‘access keys.’. They just... didn’t work?
  - Even *Chromium* itself is rotten in some way. Actually, I think it æffects all *Chromium*-based browsers in some way? There’s this particular issue that randomly locks up inputs for a tab. That happening for *Microsoft Edge* motivated me to look at other browsers. And the specific *Chromium* build I used didn’t play video on *Rayleigh Moderation*.
  - For *Rayleigh Moderation*, I ended up dedicating *[[Google Chrome]]* for it.  
    *Vivaldi* seems really nice, but syncing doesn’t actually carry over the visited link colors. *Firefox* does, so I’m going to try using that for the next months. There’s some benefits already:
      - *[[uBlock Origin]]* will be working fine and well for the foreseeable future.
      - Seems stable on large pages?
      - fop
- Removing the color of `a:visited` is inherently the root of all evil.
