Not quite related to this particular release, but I kind of wish sync for extension data wasn't Opt-In.
Having to hunt down the option to turn on Sync for each extension explicitly and not even having that option for some extensions makes for a rather poor user experience.
Also, as someone who customizes the browser layout rather extensively, I'd like to see layout settings included in Sync as well (which toolbars are visible/how buttons are organized on toolbars/etc).
- Nanzikambe 12y agoTotally disagree I find the present trend towards opt-in-by-default to be an anathema. It's totally unreasonable that I should have to start up applications in a sandbox after each upgrade and/or hire a team of lawyers to go over the EULA/TOS to find what new & interesting ways have been found to sell my personal info. (Responding to your general point btw rather than specifically against Mozilla, who compared to the alternatives do seem to care about their users privacy, nor Sync which which you have to opt in for)
- lewisl9029 12y agoFor what it's worth, I was talking specifically about Sync's behavior for extension data, and wasn't trying to make any general point about opt-in-by-default.
