Firefox mobile with uBlock origin is a fucking godsend, the mobile web is nigh unusable without it because of ads.

[–] Lanthanae@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 year ago

Whenever I'm watching someone else use a browser and I see how many ads there are, I realize how great UBlock is.

Reject Manifest V3, return to fox browser.

[–] meow_d@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

i know this is a joke, but: firefox is still implementing manifest v3. the difference is that they're keeping WebRequest

Already using FireFox. It's nice that it comes preinstalled on most Linux distros too.

I found Firefox WAY before i found Lemmy, no Chrome on my machines, UBlock Origin, Noscript, Facebook Container, Video Downloadhelper, Firefox lets one retake control

[–] amanneedsamaid@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 year ago

If you like Facebook containers, try the Firefox Container Tabs extension.

Librewolf is great; ngl it feels like vanilla Firefox has gotten too comfortable pushing sponsored content as of late

[–] Lanthanae@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 year ago (6 children)

Tbf Mozilla needs money to keep doing good work, and I don't mind "paying" for Firefox like that when the only alternatives are "paying" by letting Google track and sell my personal data.

I've been using Firefox since the days of Windows XP, I ain't gonna stop now.

Jokes on those that went shiny and chromium, I never left Firefox.

Bless the gecko! Gecko is love, gecko is lyfe.

I used to use Firefox but half the websites I visted were broken on it. Companies don't make their websites compatible with it anymore which really sucks. If Chrome kills adblocker, I'll switch back, but it's just annoying when you get to the middle of a transaction and the site stops working because the devs were too lazy to test on anything but Chrome.

FIREFOX MY BELOVED!!! I haven't touched chrome since summer of 2019, don't regret the switch one bit.

[–] pol1612@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

hmmmmm i am not BRAVEEEEE enough for firefox though

[–] _number8_@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

autocorrect doesn't work on firefox in macs which drove me away, very annoying

but also lemmy only works in firefox [and definitely not safari, very bad]

[–] RothyBuyak@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Firefox stopped working on my pc so I switched to opera

[–] Da_Boom@iusearchlinux.fyi 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sounds like your PC might need a refresh. Apps don't usually break for no reason.

[–] RothyBuyak@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, I know, but I really like how opera remembers tabs, so I might keep it anyway

[–] Da_Boom@iusearchlinux.fyi 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Firefox remembers tabs as well, there are many days where ill start Firefox and ill be looking at the same tabs I'm looking at when i last closed it, and if not there's always the "restore previous session" option in the history menu.

  • It's an option in the settings for remembering previously opened windows and tabs.
[–] RothyBuyak@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 year ago

Thx, I'll look into it

[–] SoftestVoid@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

Firefox ♥️

[–] TenNinetythree@vlemmy.net 1 points 1 year ago
