Firefox mobile with uBlock origin is a fucking godsend, the mobile web is nigh unusable without it because of ads.

[–] Lanthanae@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 2 years ago

Whenever I'm watching someone else use a browser and I see how many ads there are, I realize how great UBlock is.

Reject Manifest V3, return to fox browser.

[–] meow_d@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

i know this is a joke, but: firefox is still implementing manifest v3. the difference is that they're keeping WebRequest

Already using FireFox. It's nice that it comes preinstalled on most Linux distros too.

Librewolf is great; ngl it feels like vanilla Firefox has gotten too comfortable pushing sponsored content as of late

Tbf Mozilla needs money to keep doing good work, and I don't mind "paying" for Firefox like that when the only alternatives are "paying" by letting Google track and sell my personal data.

I found Firefox WAY before i found Lemmy, no Chrome on my machines, UBlock Origin, Noscript, Facebook Container, Video Downloadhelper, Firefox lets one retake control

[–] amanneedsamaid@sopuli.xyz 3 points 2 years ago

If you like Facebook containers, try the Firefox Container Tabs extension.

I used to use Firefox but half the websites I visted were broken on it. Companies don't make their websites compatible with it anymore which really sucks. If Chrome kills adblocker, I'll switch back, but it's just annoying when you get to the middle of a transaction and the site stops working because the devs were too lazy to test on anything but Chrome.

[–] Daniikk1012@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

What kinds of websites are you using? Been using Firefox my whole life, and the only instances I can remember of stuff not working on it are the web version of Microsoft Teams (Which works now), one proctoring site which required Opera, and some website where you could create music from samples that for some reason required Chrome.

I've been using Firefox since the days of Windows XP, I ain't gonna stop now.

[–] Da_Boom@iusearchlinux.fyi 2 points 2 years ago

Jokes on those that went shiny and chromium, I never left Firefox.

autocorrect doesn't work on firefox in macs which drove me away, very annoying

but also lemmy only works in firefox [and definitely not safari, very bad]
