Get back the extension API (not the exact same but a modern equivalent).
Keep bugging competition authorities to punish Google harshly over the abusive behavior we've seen lately.
I'm using Firefox for now but I admit the moment someone forks it and have a good security foundation I'll start using it and donating to it.
I'm fed up with Mozilla thinking everything else they donis more important than their main income source and main contribution to Internet.
(Yes, I keep posting like this against both Mozilla and Google in the hope that they will one day improve or more realistically to increase the chance that someone else steps up. As WhatsApp proved before they were gutted by Facebook there is a large market that wants privacy and is willing to accept smaller problems and also pay for it.)

- eitland 5y agojust extend (heh) the current extension API with the most important missing ones like e.g. a hideBuiltinTabBar(). It is actually slightly more complicated since some stuff depends on the main tab bar being visible (or so they say, my Firefox works nicely even if I disable the main tab bar using a CSS hack.)
- JohnFen 5y agoA fully functional and useful one would go a long way to getting me to give Firefox another chance, because it would make it possible to fix the things about Firefox that drove me away.
