The problem with “org” part. We’ll never have org.gnome and com.gnome packages. Some apps have io.github.foo.bar. This entire thing is also case sensitive, so I have to guess is org.gnome.epiphany right name or org.gnome.Epiphany.
Codeberg and other alternatives are used by 2 people, if not more. If a repo is hosted on such unpopular service, potential contributors must register a new account. This is very frustrating if you want to report just one issue or make one pull request. Self-hosted repos are even worse.

“All core systems are now at X.com”, so why opening
x.com
links in private window redirects tohttps://twitter.com/x/migrate?tok=
, then again tox.com
? I just cannot describe how stupid this is.As others have noticed, it drops an error: “Firefox’s Enhanced Tracking Protection (Strict Mode) is known to cause issues on x.com”. The link has
?mx=2
parameter. I removed it and the page loaded correctly (but half of the viewport was clumped with banners). I tried again in a new private window, but never saw this error again, so this is a bug due to the aforementioned redirect.
