I’m worried about the direction of Mozilla, though. We need another :'(
I installed ZenBrowser and it’s pretty good. It’s pretty, it works
I won’t be surprised at all. They bought an advertising network company and most of their user-tracking always was opt-out and “hidden” in
about:configand this won’t change now.They also released this pamphlet against an ad-free internet, so instead of being less intrusive with their spam and user tracking, this will become more and more annoying and complex to circumvent.
LibreWolf for desktop, Mull for Android.
Keep in mind both LibreWolf and Mull are very slow because LibreWolf disabled WebGL, enabling higher privacy features, and Mull disabled JIT, a massive performance hit.
This is for people who don’t know then blaming Firefox being slow, LibreWolf and Mull are slower version of Firefox, just that.
Aren’t those Firefox with some patches?
Misleading title. This is nothing new, just Manifest V2 being removed. Ad blockers like uBlock Origin Lite still work.
While at the same time Firefox implodes
The sad reality is, there was no significant change when they intentionally crippled the API to fight against ad blockers and there won’t be a significant change now.
The average person doesn’t care. The average person doesn’t even know what a browser is. They think a browser is The Internet.
They think Google is the internet. They will most likely type Google into the search bar to get to Google.
