[i open desktop firefox and it tells me about a new feature or whatever] this is unacceptable and makes me never want to use this product again

[i search the internet or check my email and it heckles me to install a browser made by the company who made the website] well this seems totally reasonable, i'll do it [chrome shows me an ad to buy a phone also made by the same company every time i open a new tab and there is no built in way to change this] yeah this all checks out [the company keeps trying to make ad blocking impossible in their browser because they profit massively from ad revenue] thats their right and i respect it

I legitimately don't know why people Who Know still use chrome

On desktop I use chrome as a daily driver, but I also use Firefox occasionally. On mobile? I use 3 Firefox browsers (Stable, Nightly, and Focus). I also use Chrome on mobile because it has an inbuilt option to open all tabs in desktop mode and I like that.

Yeah, firefox's one-time update messages are nowhere near as annoying as the constant begging of chrome, or worse, edge

you know that browsers have officially become utterly fundamental to the operation of the modern computer by the fact that all of them are bad, just like operating systems

(that being said, for anyone that Doesn't Know, please use firefox (unless it doesn't work for you for w/e reason))

The most Bothersome thing for me since I switched back to Firefox is getting used to it not taking me to my most visited specific page of a website. Like, if I try to go to my following page on twitch and I type "twi" to go to my twitch following page it doesn't auto-fill the following page like the other browsers I've used, it just autofills to twitch.tv and I have to tab over to the one I want.

I'm sure there's a setting to fix this, but the other autofill options I've tried messing with had been Worse, since it was trying to give me like, 'related search results' as I typed.

in Firefox bookmarks you can add a keyword to shortcut to a page. for example I have Cohost set to 'co' so I can just type that and smack enter and I'm here. Not sure if that's exactly what you're looking for, but it might help.

Can you reset your browser? ( Please backup all bookmarks first ). And then uninstall, restart, and do a clean install.

I was browsing the r/Firefox subreddit and I felt genuinely bad for the dev team at Mozilla because of the vitriol.
