But Chrome already has a stranglehold on the majority market.
In my opinion, Mozilla should put the vast majority of their energy and resources towards targeting power users and developers - they've already lost the other battle.
- The_Colonel 6y agoI'm a power user and have like zero issues with the re-design. I noticed it the first time, said "meh" and continued like usual ... Also FF/Mozilla cannot survive on power users & developers alone.
- duhi88 6y agoI'm a "power user" and I like the change. It's not like it gets in the way when you're not using it. By the way, what even is a power user on the web?
- BenjiWiebe 6y agoSomeone who uses ctrl+shift+i to change the webpage they're viewing, either to fix a problem or change an annoyance.
- hombre_fatal 6y agoLook how hostile just one HNer is about a tiny feature change as if they are the spokesperson of all power users. I can't think of a worse niche to target than a bunch of hostile, opinionated power users who play Chicken Little in comment sections around the internet because of any minor UI change they personally dislike. Btw, you aren't a browser power user just because you use ctrl-L to focus the url bar. HNers like to think they're power users because they think their opinion matters the most, but it doesn't make much sense when it comes to web browsers imo. (I like the new url bar, and I'm a power user if there's such a thing)
