You really should try running Firefox in safe mode; as others have said, it's not the number of add-ons you're running which is significant, but rather whether any one of them leaks the world.

Alternatively, download an Aurora build, which has our big add-on leak fix.

- weaksauce 14y agoI appreciate all the work you and all the Mozilla devs are doing. Even if chrome is better(it isn't) I would still use Firefox because of your stance on privacy. I'm on the beta channel now but I will checkout the alpha. What percentage of the devs are Mac developers at Mozilla? What's the best way to contribute to Firefox for a mac developer with no experience on the Firefox code base? or to put it differently what area needs the most help?
- nnethercote 14y agoTons of Mozilla developers use Macs. IIRC, within the company it's something like 70%. The number is too high really, it would be better if more developers were on Windows.
