I'd love to switch but the technique of having one browser import another's bookmarks, settings, and autofill just isn't good enough anymore. I have no fewer than 28 extensions installed on my Chrome installation and while not all of them are enabled all the time I do use them regularly. For me, the "cost" of switching to Firefox is, for each of these extensions, finding and vetting a firefox-compatible replacement.

I can't recall if I used that Chrome Store Foxified but I do know that i'm using all of my chrome extensions and firefox and don't miss chrome at all.
- dpedu 7y agoInteresting, I didn't know about this. I'll have to give it a try!
- ihuman 7y agoIf you use that method, don't they uninstall themselves if you relaunch firefox?
- cityzen 7y agoHow do you mean? My firefox extensions work just like chrome. If I quit firefox or restart my computer they're still all there.
