Okay cool. Thanks Herbie. Yeah, I’ve heard the Mac Air is the cheapest Mac you
can purchase. Do all the Mac models have the M1 processor chips now
installed? I’ll mainly be using this computer for basic stuff like email,
Safari and documents. I might use it for creating music in Garageband or
i use vivaldi, i even have seamonkey and firefox on elcpatian, no issues at
all.
did you clean cache, create another profile in the browser ?
make sure you have firewall , i use lulu
also check your /etc/hosts file, you can put ip to block
ofcourse you have ad blocker extension in the browser

If possible I would go with the newer Mac models. If you just use it for basic

Yeah, windows is about the only place where Firefox is fully accessible outside
of a Linux environment (and there are several distributions of Linux that have
full accessibility for the blind).
So, Firefox in windows can work with either jaws or NVDA pretty well. Just
don’t use it in OS X. And
ok. thanks. I used to like it in windows. oh well.

Hmmm. That’s weird. What browser are you using? If It’s safari, I have found

operation of said context menu is inconsistent.
