Why the hell would you use this product. It has caveats a mile long
- jeroenhd 5y agoTo use a stable version of Firefox with about:config and more than the ten addons that Mozilla have supported in the last two years. I'm not sure if this is the fork you want, but to get some of the features that Firefox used to have for years you can't use the normal stable build anymore.
- webmobdev 5y agoIt mentions that it is an alpha version - that's why the long list of caveat. And as Firefox becomes a spyware / adware, forks like these are welcome news.
- kadoban 5y agoWhat leads you to call (or predict?) Firefox spyware/adware?
- webmobdev 5y agoFirefox’s address bar has ads now - https://www.theverge.com/2021/10/7/22715179/firefox-suggest-search-ads-browser https://www.theverge.com/2021/10/7/22715179/firefox-suggest-...
- morsch 5y agoSo does the new tab page: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/sponsor-privacy https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/sponsor-privacy And of course they've always sold access to the list of default search engines.
- kadoban 5y agoThanks. As long as they can be turned off easily, I personally don't mind that much, but yeah, hard to argue against your wording given that.
