Alereon posted:How does that differ from the default behavior (browser.sessionstore.restore_on_demand = true), which only loads the active tab and loads the rest when you click on them? Huh, thanks for mentioning that, I'm not sure why but it was on false for me and the default is way better.

I don't really mind it either but the fact that they announced it with a super-weaselly PR release on their blog which goes to ridiculous length not to use the word "ad" rubs me really the wrong way. Yeah, lets bury the important announcement in the third to last paragraph after some "digital disruptive leadership transformation" bullshit-bingo winning drivel.

I haven't checked to see if I have the same symptoms on my Intel GPU laptop as on my Nvidia desktop, next time I'm on my laptop if I remember I'll look. It might not be the same problem, but I had similar problems with the (buggy) binary Nvidia driver. In solved the problem by loving around with the color controls in the control panel. Maybe switch to the open-source one, if that's feasible for you or vice versa.

Someone please tell me why, after reading all the above posts about Firefox completely freezing if you looked at those animated graphs and, with a dozen open tabs - why would I then go and open that loving link to see if it would happen to me too. Because sometimes you just have to taunt the gods, piss in the wind, see what happens if you take that step towards to the edge. I did, and my Firefox did not crash.

I like Mozilla. I used to use Pocket. (I've switched away from it because they don't support my Kindle). But I hope that they get a poo poo-ton of money for integrating a non-libre app. Also their videos are like a parody of the new crop of bland corporate bullshit videos but I'm afraid they really think that users of Firefox want to see them.

What the hell that makes it even worse. There was no need to integrate it now, especially when they are developing their own. browser.pocket.enabled = false to disable it.

Let's kill off the single most popular add-on which is the only thing keeping a significant part of our userbase from jumping ship to one of our derivatives that doesn't pander as hard to the least technical users!

tonberrytoby posted:From my personal anecdotal observations, people who use their desktop browsers in fullscreen mode are much rarer then competitive fps-players with perfect mouse controll. Fullscreen (F11) is probably only for weirdos and people doing presentations/kiosks, but I'm pretty sure that the majority of Windows users browse with a maximized browser window and almost no MacOS users do so. I don't have up-to-date statistics, though. MacOS always encouraged non-maximized windows with it's top menu bar optimized for Fitt's Law though.

YouTube.co is owned by Google and points to Google servers, so it's not malicious. Firefox probably assumed that this is now the right domain name to display.

fishmech posted:So when they say 40% of Firefox users don't use addons, is that just the normal Windows/Mac/Linux desktop/laptop users or does it include Firefox on all other platforms like Android? Because I know there's tons of people who use Friefox for Android but have no idea that addons are available there. Compared with desktop/laptop Firefox almost nobody uses Firefox on Android so that population doesn't meaningfully influence the 40% addon users.
