How Mozilla Ruined Firefox
www.youtube.comActually pretty good video.
- Search engine
- Google location service instead of their own (which they quit)
- FakeSpot & Pocket collecting crazy personalized data
Also info about difference between Mozilla Corporation and MZLA Nonprofit.
If you donate to Mozilla, nothing goes to Firefox. Instead they host petitions and beg big tech companies to be more transparent.
They dont focus on old users at all, and it seems they are unable to implement basic stuff.
I still recommend using Firefox, but with the Arkenfox userJS.
Or just use Librewolf.
Firefox is not usable. And dont donate to Mozilla I guess.

And the Android version doesn’t even have a bookmarks toolbar. You have to go through the menu -> bookmarks -> bookmarks toolbar -> search for the bookmark
I need 6 taps to open a folder in my bookmarks bar in new “tabs”. This is just ridiculous.
exactly. compared to a toolbar which would only be one click that is right on the screen.
Exactly. On desktop this also works as expected. Since the Firefox doesn’t have proper quickdial (neither on desktop nor on mobile) such a functionality is absolutely necessary.
