Why I removed #firefox as my default browser.

Alright I now regret using #Firefox. Not because #Mozilla did shoot with the source code. Because its blocker doesn't protect my #privacy. I also regret reading about ADHD on my Android phone on #Chrome or even having a normal #Android phone.

Last week I read about ADHD on the web using Android's stock Chrome, now Google ads is showing me advertisements about ADHD. Down with you Google.

If anyone cares about their privacy, they should avoid #Google like #plague It's a pity still people use the services it offers including the search engine.

The #Web has become a bad and creepy place. For now I'm switching to #LibreWolf.

Por cosas como estas uso #Firefox como navegador principal en todos mis dispositivos.

I tried Vivaldi on mobile, and within a few minutes I deleted Firefox and won't look back anymore.

But it's not about whatever recent issues others have with Firefox; frankly none of it are directly impeding my usage, so I just shrug it off.

It all came down to Vivaldi using up less memory than Firefox. It's what made me look for a new browser anyway.

And just with that I'm already satisfied with the new browser. All other features are just a nice bonus.

El jodido #Firefox sigue sin coger la configuración "proxy" del sistema en #flatpak pues #Mozilla tiene esto desatendido. Detalles, pero toca la moral.

TIL this about #Firefox in private browsing mode:

> If the PDF is opened rather than saved, the downloaded file is considered temporary and will be deleted at the end of the private session. You need to manually save the PDF for it to be preserved. [1]

Well-intentioned, but rather counter-intuitive since it shows the file as both downloaded and stored in a specific location. Seems like at minimum the PDF viewer should display a warning banner.

Anyone remember the time when Chrome was considered a resource hog (mostly because it had better isolation between tabs)
I feel #Firefox is worse now. I run #Chromium too but firefox does seem to deteriorate more than #Chromium
Having had firefox get killed by the OS I've just done a "swapoff -a; swapon -a" to make the system more responsive again

There are some simple things I want out of life, alongside my dreams. And my clicker games not lagging whenever I play one with #nvda and #firefox is one of them. Can anyone tell me how to fix this with firefox. When I click a clicker, the whole page, on most every one of these lags for some reason, sometimes for 30 seconds or more. and the page elements also lag it, especially it there are a lot of buttons, but sometimes if there aren't.

Am I crazy for considering modifying the #Mozilla #Firefox code and recompiling just to get #emacs -like shortcuts? Even just ctrl-s for search and ctrl-w for cut (or at least turning off ctrl-w = close the window) would be huge time savers and "oops" removers.

Supposedly there are ways to add some #javascript to dirs to make these changes, but honestly, it seems more difficult than tweaking & recompiling.

Seems that extensions can't get deep enough to change some shortcuts.

Barusan nyoba Midori. Wow, di laptop saya, jauh lebih enteng daripada Firefox dan fork-nya yang lain

Sampai saat ini, urutan peramban Firefox dan fork dari terenteng sampai terberat di laptop saya begini:

1. Midori
2. Librewolf
3. Firefox
4. Zen
5. Floorp

Pregunta para el fediverso:

Instalé Linux y los acentos en mi Firefox desaparecieron. ¿Eso está relacionado o es solo una cuestión del amigo Firefox?

Quite liking the switch to vertical tabs and tab groups in Firefox.

TIL that the most recent Firefox will now show the font licensing information in the inspector. Nice!
