Soul2 Browser is a decompiled & modded source for Soul Browser by SoulSoft, which hasn't been updated for 7 months, with v1.4.85.

It aims to fix long-standing bugs & add long-awaited features :

• 🛡️ Privacy : All tracking, advertising and in-app purchases were removed ;
• 💿 Added YouTube background playback & fixed Picture-in-Picture : Listen on Soul while doing something else ;
• 📄 PDF previews : No need to download before reading anymore ;
• 🕶 Website-specific dark theme : Disable force-dark specifically for websites that are already dark (or look bad with it) ;
• 🔐 Cloudflare WARP : Route HTTP requests through Cloudflare's VPN service ;
• 💾 Website data in backups : No need to log back in while switching versions or devices anymore ;
• ⚙️ Improved customizability : Link preview layout, tab bar/URL bar/text selection long-press menus, default tab group color, & more ;
• 🔎 Precise "Find in page" : Whole-word & case-sensitive options ;
• 🕐 Full timestamps in history : With hours, minutes and seconds ;
• 🧑‍💻 DevTools & JSON Viewer : Load Eruda DevTools from the menu, without having to toggle a userscript every time ; Read JSON responses with the comfort of Firefox's viewer ;
• 🖼️ Image title/alt text display : A more useful description on long-press ;
• 📋 Tab list improvements : Copy a few or all tabs' URLs as a newline-separated list to the clipboard, select ranges of tabs via long-press ;
• ℹ️ WebView version information : Check which version of Android System WebView your system is running Soul on ;
• ⚡ Improved performance : Opening previewed page as a tab no longer requires a reload ; Advanced settings allow disabling saved tabs, for fresh pages at first load ; Fixed lost query from address bar to "Find in page" ;
• 📥 Fixed JS-triggered file downloads : The end of downloadfile.txt, and downloading blob:// URLs now works too.

The development will mainly address the bug reports & feature requests from the official bug tracker and will be advertised there, requests for Soul2 in particular will also be welcomed there, with the hope that Soul's creator will eventually notice the continued interest shown by the community for their app, and decide to resume maintenance and backport the added improvements, at which point this modding project will have achieved its goal and be terminated.

The app is named Soul2 Browser (net.kaki87.soul2) for stable builds and Soul2⁺ Browser (net.kaki87.soul2.testing) for testing builds; both support configuration import/export in Settings -> Backup between each other and the official app.

Enjoy !

Hi,

I live in Limoges (France) without a car and not even a driver's license.

Does anyone know the best places to travel to using only public transit and manage to experience the total solar eclipse, in terms of easiness of access, transportation cost, accomodation cost, tourist density ?

I've considered taking a train to somewhere near the border (Saint-Jean-Pied-De-Port, Bedous) then figuring out local transportation, or taking an international train to Barcelona (details for both options in my other post linked below), but I think the best option will be taking a national train to a big national hub, then taking an international bus there.

So, for international bus, I found the following, but I'm of course open to other destinations :

• from Toulouse (4h of train away for 20€) :
  • a 6 hour bus ride to Zaragoza, 1m 23s of totality, 15% cloud risk, for 70€ ;
  • an 8 hour bus ride to Burgos, 1m 43s of totality, 25% cloud risk, for 55€ ;
  • a 9 hour bus ride to Vitoria‑Gasteiz, 1m 3s of totality, 45% cloud risk, for 35€ ;
• from Bordeaux (3h of train away for 25€) :
  • a 9 hour bus ride to León, 1m 44s of totality, 30% cloud risk, for 60€ but with a 1h layover, I must admit I'm not a fan of that (turns out this option just disappeared between 10 days ago and now) ;
  • a 6 hour bus ride to Santander, 1m 2s of totality, 45% cloud risk, for 90€ ;
    • or keep going 3 hours longer on the same bus to Oviedo, 55% cloud risk, 1m 48s of totality, for 100€ ;
    • or keep going 7 hours longer to A Coruña, 1m 15s of totality (less than the previous stop), 25% cloud risk, for 120€ ;
  • a 7h and a half hour bus ride to Valladolid, 1m 31s of totality, 10% cloud risk, for 45€

(Note : I'd trust locals more than statistics regarding the cloud risk).

In another post on Reddit, people also suggested Bilbao (which is on the way to Burgos) but honestly I'm not doing all this for not even half a minute of totality.

What do you think ? I mostly need help regarding local logistics, like transportation within the city, finding an observation spot, finding food that my partner with dairy/egg/nuts/shellfish allergies can eat, etc.

Also, flying is out of the question, and carpooling is too risky in case of cancellation for such a very time-sensitive occasion.

This is also becoming more and more urgent because as I'm posting for help for the 5th time across all platforms between a month ago and now, options are disappearing, prices are rising and I haven't even looked at Airbnb yet.

Thanks very much

Une page de statut, un salon matrix, un compte secondaire de l'admin sur une instance différente, ou autre chose ?

Merci

I'm asking cause my previous post regarding my server that isn't at home got moderated for violating rule 3. I don't get it 🤔

Hi,

When connecting to a video projector in duplicate mode, the Surface monitor has to be set to a resolution with an aspect ratio of 16:9 because video projectors don't support 3:2.

Is there any way to keep the Surface monitor at optimal resolution and aspect ratio while sending a resized 16:9 video to the projector, i.e. displaying black borders on the external monitor instead of the internal one ?

Thanks

It's proprietary, after all. I understand paid is fine, but even then, it usually better be open source.

So, why is Unraid an exception ?

Thanks

Hi,

This post has comments : https://jlai.lu/post/26123233

But when asking the API : https://jlai.lu/api/v3/comment/list?post_id=26123233&sort=Old

An empty array is returned.

Why ?

Thanks

Hi,

I created this project that allows bloggers to integrate comments from the Fediverse to their articles, currently from Mastodon and Lemmy, using a plug & play client-only iframe, that saves readers from copy/pasting post URLs to their home instance.

Check it out !

Your comments from here will appear there ;)

Come on, for f*ck's sake, remove this !

Hi,

The README for the clipboard manager applet says :

Use the flatpak version in the cosmic store.

But, when navigating to Applets in the COSMIC Store, or when searching "clipboard", I can't find it.

Where is it ?

Thanks
