Proton client is open-source? yes.

Their server side code is independently audited? yes.

So, no issue in my Pov. But, "a company run by scientist" - that's a bit stretching the truth, I would say.

Mozilla should make Fakepost source code open-source so that people (with right hardware) can self-host it.

I'm also exactly on the same boat as you; I use Fakepost frequently and now it will be canned by Mozilla. The alternative I found is https://reviewmeta.com/, but it's quite slow and can't cover all domains of Amazon.

Playing was almost as thrilling as seeing it work.

This is GOLD!

Mint is based on Ubuntu which in turn based on Debian.

Mint is neither developing OS, or Linux kernel from scratch.

On the other hand, Mozilla is maintaining Firefox browser and most importantly Gecko JS engine all by itself.

Browser codebase is really complex and requires dedicated dev effort.

You can use Cosmic DE on any device that can run Linux. You do NOT need to purchase System76 laptops for that.

Stick to Production version of Nvidia Linux driver - v550, v570. I'm using v570 on Ubuntu 25.04, no issue in either day to day work or in gaming.

Summary

We have rewritten over 600 JavaScript event handlers to mitigate XSS and other injection attacks in the main Firefox user interface. This mitigation will ship in Firefox 138. However, blocking the execution of scripts in the parent process is not the end - we will expand this technique to other contexts in the near future. There is still more work to do as the UI requires JavaScript APIs with a high level of privileges. However: We still eliminated a whole class of attacks, significantly raising the bar for attackers to exploit Firefox. In fact, we hopefully just broke someone’s exploit chain.

Did you compile the kernel by yourself, or used Mainline to install?
