Still NO CLUE of what you are talking about. There is no new feature. Can you share a screencap so the rest of us know what in Hades you are talking about? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tvholic Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 Chevrons = the button with the two "greater than" symbols at the right end of the extension toolbar, which opens the extension overflow menu that appears if there are more extension buttons than will fit on the toolbar. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rereser Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 for me those chevrons only appear when the chrome window size is set to 800 x 600. that applies for 13.5.2022 and 13.5.2036. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotHereToPlayGames Posted April 12, 2023 Author Share Posted April 12, 2023 Glad that's finally settled, lol That's not a new "feature" and has always been there, I never run that small of a window size. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very good explanation of chevrons, thank you @tvholic! I see you woke up after a few years to take activity in our marvelous topics... besides I'm delighted with your very clear English, welcome for you! PS. I never watch TV, I prefer to be active in nature... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never reduce the window dimensions that much, but with or without reduction, the chevrons are there for our enjoyment! And only in the latest build beta 3: 360Chrome 13.5.2036r1rb3 (maybe we talked about different chevrons with different job in the same place?..) Voila! So this latest Beta3 is GREAT!

NotHereToPlayGames Posted April 12, 2023 Author Share Posted April 12, 2023 You once mentioned that you do not run your browser window "maximized" because you feel it is a privacy vulnerability, so what window size do you run? Because it is that smaller window size that prompts the chevrons, in all versions of 360Chrome (I tested in several versions all the way back to v11 now that I know what you are talking about - a screencap at the very beginning would have been extremely helpful). Running a MAXIMIZED window is actually LESS of a privacy vulnerability - because then your fingerprint on screen size is a needle in a haystack, you blend in with everybody with the same monitor resolution. Running in a smaller window makes you stand out like a sore thumb because you become the only person on the planet running that window size. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this change nothing for amiunique result, sadly: "Are you unique ? Yes! You are unique" Edited April 12, 2023 by msfntor Yes!

Screen resolution is but ONE variable out of HUNDREDS. And it depends on which of those variables is being used to "fingerprint" you. If you send a User Agent that tells the world you run XP x86 SP2 when 99% of folks on XP x86 run SP3 and not SP2, then of course you are "unique". If you think about it, being "unique" is *NOT* the result you want if you are trying to "not be fingerprinted". Being UNIQUE is BAD - you have been fingerprinted and they know EXACTLY who you are, you are "unique". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have ever completed a "captcha" on that computer, then it has been fingerprinted and "databased" and you are wasting your time and resources to try to "un-fingerprint". edit: "captcha" = Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart Edited April 12, 2023 by NotHereToPlayGames 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
