2016-07-29 16:44:06 Einar Mostad description The Ubuntu touch browser is fine, but I like to use Firefox with some add ons (https everywhere, adblock plus, DuckDuckGo, NoScripts, Download youtube videos as MP4) as my default browser since I can force websites to respect my privacy. However, since Firefox is not set as default, all links from Dekko, RSS reader etc open in the Ubuntu touch browser. This is a bit annoying. I wish there was a setting in the settings panel for default browser (setting Firefox as default browser inside Firefox does nothing) that would fix this. (I also wish copy-paste would work to Xapps, so I could copy links manually as an alternative to having Firefox as default browser, but that is another bug report.) The Ubuntu touch browser is fine, but I like to use Firefox with some add ons (https everywhere, adblock plus, DuckDuckGo, NoScripts, Download youtube videos as MP4) and with syncing with my desktop and laptop as my default browser. However, since Firefox is not set as default, all links from Dekko, RSS reader etc open in the Ubuntu touch browser in stead. This is a bit annoying. I wish there was a setting in the settings panel for default browser (setting Firefox as default browser inside Firefox does nothing) that would fix this.
