My kid got a little round box of soapy solution at the fairground with a wire loop to blow bubbles with. She was pretty excited with it for few minutes, then lost interest. Kept it on her desk when she got back home.

The next morning, she tried to blow some more bubbles with it, but the soapy solution appeared to be as dead as plain water, i.e. zero bubbles came out when she tried with the wire loop.

What kills the "bubbleness" of soapy solution over time ? The concentration of the remaining solution should've remained the same since the box was closed shut overnight.

Why does Google Play Protect stop me from sideloading apks (from, say, Obtainium) while almost regularly I read reports about malicious apps being available in Google Playstore itself ? Why do they allow those ?

Probably just a rant out of frustration. I ignore those alerts if I am confident about the apk I'm sideloading, lol.

Basically what the title says. As far as tech knowledge goes, I am probably a 3.5 or 4 out of 10. Hence the ELI5 request.

I am a Firefox browser user, both in my Android phone as well as Windows device - for the same reason as many others ditched Chrome and chose FF (degoogle and all).

Recently I came to know about Fission being offered in FF nightly. It is said that site isolation with fission is far from ready, and this is probably one of the areas where chromium beats it. I read somewhere that FF fission uses multiple processes to separate sites, but they are not really "isolated processes".

All these is surely not making me less confused about how exactly sandboxing/fission/FPI/TCP differ as far as Firefox is considered, so thought of asking this here.

Posting this in the ELI5 community might've been more "correct", but my question being specifically around Firefox, I thought the chances of getting a better answer is higher here.

Apologies if not, and thanks in advance.

Jerboa sorely lacks the absolute basic feature of searching for keywords in posts. It only supports searching for community names. I can't think of any other Lemmy app that does NOT support general search.

I came to know that there is an issue open in Github for over 3 years now, but no clue as to whether it is been worked on.

Totally respecting the personal times of the volunteer developers who are making Jerboa an awesome app - at the same time the lack of this basic feature stops me from calling Jerboa my favorite.
