I love containers as well. Does anyone know when/if they'll be coming to Firefox for Android and iOS? Also, I really wish you would be able to specify which container you want in the Home button when using multiple urls for your default tabs. So this: https://gmail.com/|https://gmail.com/ Would become something like this: {container:personal}https://gmail.com/|{container:work}https://gmail.com/

I'm pretty sure Mozilla has abandoned Firefox on Android to work on Firefox Preview (code named Fenix). Here is the github issue that tracks container support on Firefox Preview: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix/issues/1481 https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix/issues/1481

  I would LOVE to use Firefox on Android. But the UX is so kludgey! My main beefs - Refresh requires two clicks instead of the now-standard pull down (like Chrome) - Text resizing is _all_ _over_ _the_ _place_. I go to Reddit and the text shrinks down to size 3 or something. There is no clear way to make any adjustment whatsoever. Compare to Chrome/Chrome-clone Brave's very easy text resizing. Why do I love firefox on android? - Adblocking adblocking adblocking. Get rid of the absolutely garbage ad experiences that clutter up the majority of .com sites - Extensions - Zoom is easy versus other browsers

    Have you tried the new browser, still called Firefox Preview on Android?

    Pulling down to refresh is so annoying. Way too easy to trigger accidentally. I really prefer the Firefox way.

  What makes you say they are abandoning it? I hope they change the name if it happens. Edit: https://venturebeat.com/2019/06/27/mozilla-geckoview-firefox-preview-android/ https://venturebeat.com/2019/06/27/mozilla-geckoview-firefox... is an article on this. It says Firefox Focus is being replaced. But Focus was not really a full featured browser and hasn't meant replace the normal Firefox on mobile. Confusing...
