To be fair, I think less technical users would think that Firefox was either broken or incapable of basic functionality (leaving a bad impression either way) if search suggestions weren’t on by default. It probably wouldn’t hurt for the default search engine to be something else though, I think most people are used to changing that.
- denton-scratch 4y agoI find search suggestions positively hostile, and is one of the first things I switch off. I see that Mozilla has started pushing Pocket again. With the last upgrade, I got a new tab with a full-page Pocket ad. They don't need telemetry to discover that I've never used Pocket. I dislike their custom of using upgrades to stuff an ad in my face; and I dislike that scarce screen real-estate is used for an unnecessary button. If they've got to create a new tab on upgrade, it should show the changelist, not a "promotional message". It's a bloody plug-in, and it should be possible to unplug it.
