"small subset"?! Most Firefox users don't install addons at all. The number of people who want to install addons from random untrusted places is really tiny. D

Developer Edition is not alpha.
- superkuh 9y agoWell, you're wrong. Developer is taking the place of aurora/alpha as the below quote from https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox/Developer_Edition https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox/Developer_Editio... shows, >Firefox Developer Edition replaces the Aurora channel in the Firefox Release Process. Like Aurora, features will land in the Developer Edition every six weeks, after they have stabilized in Nightly builds.
- floatboth 9y agoSure I guess you could call Aurora "alpha" (but it wasn't named "Alpha" for a reason)… the point is, they're so confident in the stability of the "alpha" they're offering it as something to be used by, well, all developers. And they should be confident. In the last year or so, Nightly only broke for me once.
