How to download all mail in Claws-mail With Claws-mail, I want to be able to read all my mail even if offline, but the only way I know to download mail contents is by manually selecting it in the mail list. Additionally, navigating feels a bit sluggish because, as the manual says: > When using IMAP your folder list and your emails are ... (more) |

Do you mean that you are not the author of the post at Solveforums or are you additionally suggesting that it is a mere coincidence that the first paragraphs are **identical** to the ones you have written here and thus you have not copied it? (more) |

Control whether Firefox renders web pages in dark or light mode It has been reported that, if on a dark theme in KDE, Firefox automatically renders some websites that support it (e.g. Duckduckgo does, but Codidact doesn't) in dark mode. How can I better control how Firefox behaves in respect to that? (more) |

Perhaps you will have more luck in Reddit. From [this list](https://duckduckgo.com/?q=how+to+monetize+my+website+site%3Areddit.com) there seems to be some Subreddits where this would be on topic. Good luck! (more) |

A: Make left-click warp the scrollbar thumb position instead of paging down/up I found that the GTK theme I use also has a `settings.ini` file, which sets gtk-primary-button-warps-slider to false. I wouldn't expect it to take precedence over the user specific file, but it does. It is easy to edit a single file for your current theme; If you want to do it for all themes in on... (more) |

@#54036777 For these kind of applications, I'm afraid you are right. People are likely to just search for "calculator", use the first one that fits, and go away. This is a considerably different approach than for information providing sites such as Wikipedia ([some figures](https://www.washingtonpost... (more) |

I am inclined to agree with @#36396. To me this is off-topic, because the question boils down to "how to monetize a web page?" and I wouldn't call it a survey of software, but of third-party services to do so — after all one could always easily put up his own first-party ads ("selling this car, conta...

Have you considered donations? Of course this will highly depend on your site's profile and audience, but on the other hand advertisements are the web's plague. They attempt to track and distract users. I wouldn't be surprised if most of the visitors used adblock anyway. (more) |

Assuming this is not available as a option to `git` itself, stating your operating system is important (unless you want to gather information for all of them). Your proposed solution, `sort -u`, is ideal for Unix systems. I guess in Windows things would be different, since it doesn't follow the POSIX... (more) |

As a Firefox user, I would expect some more information by clicking on that icon. . Why did you not do that (premise: you trust your browser, which is obviously a valid premise since you are using it)? If you did, why did you not include what you found out by doing so? (more) |

A: Change colour of search markers in firefox scroll bar 1. Enter `about:config` in the address bar. 2. Search for `ui.textHighlightBackground` and change its color value — you can use the #RRGGBB format or generic names such as "green". Note this also changes the highlight color of the matched text and that Firefox applies a default transparency val... (more) |

A: Why my screen automatically zooms? How to stop it? This is triggered by holding Alt and rolling the scrollwheel (or, on a touchpad, moving two fingers vertically). Since you mention sticky keys: If they are on, the Alt keypress and the scroll event would not even need to occur simultaneously to trigger magnification. To disable magnification, ... (more) |

@#53305 Thanks, I didn't know those Github projects you and Samcarter brought up, good to see there are many improvements available.
Yes, I think you're right about that GTK is specific to that OS. I'm fixing it.

A: Increase contrast between current and other tabs in Firefox Option 1: Choose a different theme Just go to Settings > Extensions and Themes (shortcut: Ctrl+Shift+A) and choose a suitable theme.

Increase contrast between current and other tabs in Firefox In most recent Firefox versions I find it hard to distinguish the current tab at a glance, especially if the screen is set at low brightness. That is because the colors used for the current and other tabs are too similar. Tab bar I found a couple of extensions (1, 2, 3) but they are not monitor... (more) |
