Extensions are nice to have, but pointless as long as FF for Android doesn't render most pages correctly (HN, for example).

- emestifs 3y agoFirefox paradox strikes again. User brings up an unrelated thing, even if valid, to lessen something positive. You seen this pattern again and again in Firefox news threads.
- account42 3y ago> something positive You mean "we reluctantly unbroke what we previously deliberatly broke".
- Aardwolf 3y agoI've never seen HN rendered incorrectly in any desktop or android FF version, what do you mean?
- novemp 3y agoI'm using HN on Firefox for Android right now and it looks totally normal. What are you talking about?
- scottbez1 3y agoCare to expand a bit? I've been daily driving FF Android for a few years now and I've had the opposite experience: the vast majority of pages work and render fine (including HN) and it's an extremely rare occasion that I switch to Chrome to use a website. Even then, I often find that Chrome isn't any better and the underlying issue was the website's mobile handling in general (e.g. touch events working differently than mouse events, or just a completely broken mobile-only component swaps)

- berkes 3y agoIronically, the few times that I see Firefox (for Android) render something wrong, it's because of an addon that is messing with the wrong stuff.
- oblio 3y agoI've been using Firefox and only Firefox on Android for HN for... at least 5 years. What are you going on about? HN is a basic site, Lynx on MS DOS could render it.
