[Opensim-users] singularity vs firestorm

[Sarge Misfit]

Btw, I use Firestorm, not Phoenix. I realize I made the mistake of thinking
of the two using the same name. Not feeling well, so I was a bit
foggy-minded. So, when reading my previous post, replace Phoenix with
Firestorm.

You can disable the use of the LSL Bridge in the Firestorm settings. (as
well as in the original Phoenix).

One other problem, for me, is that I cannot customize the UI buttons.
That's a minor thing, but I found myself looking for those things I use
most often when using Firestorm. Fly, Build, MiniMap, Inventory were all in
the "wrong place" for me.

All in all, to each their own.
