Vaya modita en Firefox para android (que ha heredado IronFox) de meter en la barra de búsqueda mil y un botoncitos, y al final no se ve nada de la url de la dirección web que estoy visitando. A veces, ver ese enlace, es fundamental para detectar phishing. ¿Alguien sabe como correjir eso?

Firefox is dead to me • The Register

No notes. All good points. I'm still not going to a Chrome based browser. Not yet.
I hear Opera is nice if that day ever comes.

Main points:

  • Shitty removal of promise to never sell your data from the FAQ.
  • Hard pivot to AI that nobody wants.
  • Killing programs people actually like and use.
  • Losing on performance (again).
  • Mass layoffs.

As is pointed out in the article, most of the crap comes directly from Mozilla and management, not the people doing development.
It could be righted with a massive leadership change that isn't going to happen.

I've switched to IronFox on my phone and LibreWolf on my laptops. I'll keep doing that as long as it's feasible.

I have to use Edge and Firefox at work because they are "approved" (along with Chrome) and centrally managed.

Edit: fixed a typo.

The Register · Firefox is dead to me – and I'm not the only one who is fed upBy Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols

I've stopped using Firefox since the drama a while back... Using #ZenBrowser and #LibreWolf mainly on macOS and on #Android, #Ironfox and #Cromite (as an alt browser). But I'm having quite a lot of website functionality problems when using Ironfox. Can't create accounts, forms not working, can't use #webauthn, pages not loading correctly, checkouts or shopping sites broken, etc. I guess I need to have #Firefox still installed... It's annoying. What's your workaround? #browsers #androidbrowser
