I don't get those problems, but even if I did, it would be well worth it as opposed to seeing ads all the time. If Google wanted me to uninstall Firefox forever and use Chrome they'd allow for plug-ins for Chrome (on Android). While they don't I'll simply never switch. I have no idea how people tolerate ads.
- dhimes 7y agoThe only sites that give me problems now are ones like Accuweather that try to load media connected to third-party trackers. Firefox won't load them (and I decline to change the settings) and the site fails. For those sites, and others that are intrusive, if you need them, you can use containers. I use containers for things like Twitter and Facebook.
- Miraste 7y agoI use Firefox on my non-Android devices, but sadly I have found that Android Firefox is so slow and clunky that even without ads it's less usable than Chrome with ads. Mozilla knows this, too: they have a total rewrite in beta right now, and it's great, but it doesn't support plugins yet.
- EpicEng 7y agoI get constant, intermittent stutters when scrolling on FF. On three devices. Sorry, I just want a browser that works. I don't imagine this is a problem for everyone, but I can find reports of it and no fix.
