The citation is right there: "In my opinion"
- sleepybrett 3y agoI would like actual facts to back up this opinion.
- encom 3y agoFine, here's the one of the last changes that put me over the edge: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1699128 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1699128 Mozilla removes "View Image" from the context menu for no reason at all, and a developer (he/him) explains why That's A Good Thing, and eventually shuts it down after almost 100 comments disagrees with it. There was a Reddit thread about it as well at the time, but I'm not digging through that trash heap. As mentioned, this has been a repeating occurrence. "View Image" was a tiny thing, but I happened to use it many times per day. And many MANY such tiny things just wears you down eventually.
- sleepybrett 3y agoWhy do I care if I can no longer 'view image' but can still 'view image in new tab'? 99% of the time I want the later.... Also this was three years ago, and there is at least one extension that 'fixes' this if you want it.
- encom 3y agoAnd 99% of the time it's not what I want. I'm sure there's an extension that fixes it, but why remove it in the first place? It's a pointless change. There are probably extensions that "fix" all the other myriad things Mozilla broke or removed, but now I have to rely on the good will of a third party to develop it and keep it up to date. There are only so many times I'll tolerate Mozilla breaking my workflow, so I have to spend time on either fixing the problems or adapt to their nonsensical changes.
- sleepybrett 3y agowell knock yourself out. Turns out things change that we personally do not like all the time. Some of those things are worth caring about, some of them are not. I salute you for dieing on the hill of 'one more click'. To me this falls well elow the ar of user hostile in a world where google chrome farms you and prevents you from using ad blockers.
