I have never used FF mobile, but so far no one has gone into detail about what changed about FF mobile that made it so much worse. Can you elaborate a little?

- oftenwrong 6y agoThere were a number of major changes that were poorly received: https://www.forbes.com/sites/barrycollins/2020/08/26/firefox-on-android-gets-a-major-update-and-users-hate-it/?sh=26d4eaa83e27 https://www.forbes.com/sites/barrycollins/2020/08/26/firefox... Perhaps the most disruptive change was that the update was not compatible with the vast majority of extensions. Given that, for "power users", the ability to install extensions was THE killer feature of Firefox for Android, this change was controversial. I still use Firefox 68.
