It can be a bit buggy at times, but when it comes to just playing music with the screen locked, it’s perfect.

Edit: I forgot to also mention that ad blocker extensions make sailing the seas on mobile much more manageable. Extentions, in general, have been a really nice addition.
It’s not gonna mean much of shit soon, anyone in the know is ditching Firefox for alternatives.
Firefox has changed their terms of service and is now starting to sell user data.
They reverted those changes last week.
The fact that they attempted them at all is a breach of trust (and I say that as someone who’s been a Firefox user and advocate without interruption since all the way back when it was called “Phoenix”).
IDK, time will tell, we’ll see eventually.
We live in the world of enshittification, when changes like that happen, even when briefly reverted, are usually a sign of times to come soon…
I’m curious, ditching Firefox for what? Chromium browsers? More Firefox forks? Is there even a good alternative?
New territory for me as well, but I don’t want to go with Chromium or any fork of that.
As of yesterday I’ve started testing Fennec, a recommended fork of Firefox, that has supposedly gutted much of the bullshit.
I dunno anything for sure though, just basically dipping my toes in the fresh digital waters…
Lol people have been “ditching” Firefox for various reasons for years. If you can barely get people to ditch Chrome, good luck with making some ff fork relevant.
Yeah, your data is the trade away. I’m trying to fork it rn and bake in the extensions.
Problem is, that many alternatives still just build up on Firefox
If Firefox is dying, Waterfox, LibreWolf, etc will be dying with it, as they don’t have the resources to actually maintain the web engine
Not sure, what the best move currently is…
Am I the only one that still knows how to use Internet Explorer 5 on Windows 3.11?
That’s not even a joke, it still sorta works, but you’re not gonna log into your bank account with it.
I just don’t like to use wine for a application I use everyday
