YMMV, but people talk about these ads firefox is throwing around and I just don't see them. Did I accidentally turn a knob or something and it's just carried with me through years of Firefox Sync'ing?
- technobabbler 5y agoYeah, there are a bunch of ways to turn them off if you're a frequent user. But as a fresh install, you get bombarded with all sorts of useless recommendations and ads. It reminds me of the MSN start page. I see the fresh installs often because I only use Firefox to test occasional browser bugs (it's always Firefox), and then delete it a few weeks later when I no longer need it, then reinstall it later when I need to test it again. Every time it gets more annoying.
- handrous 5y agoMost updates at least open and focus a tab about what updated. I'm not sure I've ever cared what it said or needed to know any of the info on those, in years of that happening. Some updates also like to pop up messages or bug me to use crap like Pocket or their revolutionary (LOL) new color theming. Possibly there's a way to stop it, but I only use FF on my Windows gaming machine these days, so it's not a big deal.
