"far too basic for real use."
For some, myself included, basic is all we want. IF something piques my interest, I will open it. Otherwise, I have a basic idea of current events in < 10 minutes and get on w/ life... sans cookies, tracking, ads, java heavy page loads, etc.
Engineering 101: Simple is the most advanced technology. It is not the most profitable, however. YMMV.
- severine 8y agoI agree with all you say, except for one thing. When I installed the fantastic Cookie Autodelete extension [links below], I had it with the option for allowing notifications on deletion, and I realised that all my live bookmarks were setting cookies. No big deal, but thought you'd like to know.

- tunap 8y agoThanks, TIL. I presume Ctrl+Shift+Del(all) & BleachBit address such trackers, I use former closing tabs & latter when I close Pale Moon. I wonder if UB Origin or NoScript address them beforehand...

- digi_owl 8y agoWhen you can't even modify the URL behind a live bookmark, nor tell Firefox to mark all existing entries read, it is beyond basic...
- tunap 8y agoRight click feed/bookmark > Properties > modify URL.
- digi_owl 8y agoI only see name and description boxes in the dialog that comes up...
- tunap 8y agoYou do not see "Feed Location"? It used to be there, is still in latest Pale Moon. I only use FF latest without bookmarks nor mods(except NS+BluHell) in a sandbox for commerce and pron, so I cannot say what the current offering entails.
- digi_owl 8y agoIt worked just now, just sure what i did wrong earlier. Maybe it had to fully load the feed before the proper dialog showed up.
- canhascodez 8y agoI don't see any such thing. Firefox Quantum 61.0.1 on Ubuntu. I suppose it's not worth filing a bug report.
