Show HN: Konform Browser v140.7.0-108
Konform Browser is a Firefox ESR fork focused on security, privacy, and user freedom. This might sound familiar but I think we still have something worthwhile to bring to the browser ecosystem.The project started as a fork of LibreWolf and now stands on its own four feet. It takes a harder stance on the three goals of security, privacy and freedom. It's intended to be suitable as a general-purpose daily driver for everything from managing the intranet to surfing the murkier tubes.This week

I finally made a start on 2.0 a bit over a year ago, and I've been chipping away at it for fun ever since.Some key features: - Track mouse movements, clicks, keyboard, and controller inputs (you can optionally disable any of these). - Switch profiles depending on what game / application is loaded. - Live render preview in the GUI. -It's de
Show HN: Luzia – Unified crypto pricing API for developers
Luzia normalizes real-time ticker data from Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, Bybit, and OKX through a single REST/Websocket API.Why I built this: Every crypto project I worked on required maintaining separate exchange connectors. Different authentication, different response formats, different error handling. It's repetitive work that doesn't add value to the actual application.Technical details: - Bun runtime with Hono framework - PostgreSQL + Drizzle ORM - Circuit breaker pattern for f
