A new Firefox for Android experience
- Vinnl 6y agoThey're kind of burying the lede with their supporting just a handful of extensions, which I guess will be a pain point for relatively many users here, but for me, the most important extensions are available (unlikely for practically every other major browser), and it's far faster than the old Firefox for Android. That alone makes it a far better experience for me. I'm still figuring out the use case for Collections though...
- kevincox 6y agoYeah, at least they don't bug you to use collections as much as they used too. But I haven't figured out why I would use them.
- kevincox 6y agoCall me crazy but I wish we brought back the thing chrome did where each website was a separate "window" or "app" in android. It made switching between tabs so easy (you just use the native app switching functionality). For every other browser it ranges between awkward and super awkward (the new FF is on the super awkward side). Plus windows nicely garbage collect themselves as I open more tabs and apps. As it is now my broswer just collects old tabs until I manually press the "close all" button. If I want them back that is what the history feature is for.
- Vinnl 6y agoIt's not extremely discoverable, but you can swipe the address bar to switch tabs now. Works pretty well.
