if you're concerned about performance, why would you use nightly? i've never benchmarked the difference between other people's release, beta, and nightly builds, but i know at my day job the daily builds are likely to have performance regressions that won't necessarily be fixed until beta or release.

- yoasif_ 8y agoThere are no real improvements coming to Firefox Nightly on Android. All the real action is happening in Firefox Focus with GeckoView: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/focus-android/wiki/Release-tracks#nightly https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/focus-android/wiki/Release... and in Fenix: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix Fennec (Firefox for Android) is basically in maintenance mode. FWIW: Firefox Focus Nightly is a much better implementation of Gecko on Android than Fennec ever was, with the caveat that Sync, sessions, or extensions are not available.
