Hi Stewart,

Not that I actively use ftp, but all of the Norton Commander-like file managers that I use still have FTP support.

Krusader for example,




Also a more classic and very much TUI implementation of the same interface -- Midnight commander, has FTP support

Hi - so browsers don't support ftp:// links any more <https://www.somagnews.com/mozilla-firefox-drops-support-for-ftp/>, and I was wondering what people used as a drop-in app? I'd prefer if it weren't Filezilla, as that thing was a bug-ridden mess of spyware last time I looked at it. Most of the very old computer documentation I use lives on FTP sites, and this change came out of nowhere.

Also, my go-to screenshot thingy /*scrot*/ no longer works on Ubuntu 21.04: it gives me this:

X Error of failed request:  BadDrawable (invalid Pixmap or Window parameter)   Major opcode of failed request:  14 (X_GetGeometry)   Resource id in failed request:  0x0   Serial number of failed request:  8   Current serial number in output stream:  8

My keyboard doesn't have a PrtSc key so I can't use any of the built-in screenshot tools. Is this a Wayland thing? I thought Wayland was supposed to be compatible with X?

cheers,

 Stewart
