I love Firefox as an alternative to Chrome but I hate how it goes of its way to be as cumbersome as possible.
Witness this example of the most terrible UI ever; how frustratingly convoluted it is to delete specific cookies:
1: Open Preferences
2: Search "cookies"
3: See a bunch of cluttered stuff
4: Scroll all the way down to "Cookies and Site Data"
5: Click "Clear Data"
6: Oops, that's not it. Cancel and try "Manage Data"
7: Search "google" for example (to avoid their crappy tactic of signing you into Search when you sign into YouTube or Gmail, but that's another story)
8: Click "Remove All Shown"
9: Click "Save Changes"
10: Get hit with a modal alert in your face showing you the list of changes to confirm.
11: Click "Remove"

- corford 6y agoIt isn't great but imho it's better than Chrome which confuses me each time and feels super limited: 1. Open settings 2. Privacy and security 3. Scroll down to find the tiny "See all cookies and site data" 4. Use the search box for the site you want 5. Then you only have the option of removing everything from that site?? There's a little X icon to the right of each cookie but clicking it does nothing Unless there's a better way I haven't seen (I use chrome infrequently)
