v.93 I don't even see Firefox Suggest in those settings.
Linux distro removed it? Or Firefox know apple, windows people will just put up with anything but linux people probably won't?
edit: Don't see it on an v.93 on an old mac laptop either.
checkboxes for browsing history, bookmarks, open tabs, shortcuts, search engines only. I wanna yell fake news out of FF loyalty boosterism but I do actually believe you so I wonder what's going on?
- jamie_ca 5y agoI think it's windows only (at least for now).
- harry8 5y agoWell anyone who agrees to what microsoft forces on you by running windows is hardly going to object to anything firefox does. Firefox isn't spyware, windows clearly is nowadays.
- eps 5y agoIt is limited to the US for now. Presumably they are trying to gauge the density of the resulting shitstorm before going all in.
- asdff 5y agoI'm actually on V. 92.0.1 on Mac OS, in the US if that helps. Maybe they are AB testing this and gauging fallout. Here's a paste of what I have in my settings > privacy and security menu under address bar: Address Bar — Firefox Suggest Choose the type of suggestions that appear in the address bar: Browsing history Bookmarks Open tabs Shortcuts Search engines Contextual suggestions (this was checked when i became aware of these settings and went to look) Learn more Include occasional sponsored suggestions (this was also checked) Helps fund Firefox development and optimization.
