Wry and wise,
but also very sexual.

safari is unquestionably the best browser for browsin' but for webdev I was using firefox, except less and less websites started to work with it. now i'm using vivaldi for dev, which is a pretty good alternative to chrome imo

gently caress I didn't code it,

maybe it works on edge idk, it just doesn't wrk on chrome and does on firefox so.. don't touch it if you ask me.

I hate the way its always asking me to change password again. too much security forces bad security

an (incompetent) ex-manager was incredibly proud about adding password complexity and rotation requirements to our customer support portal. p sure that's still there though the manager is long gone. the flexibility afforded by salesforce really should not be granted to the people that receive it, but those people have purchasing authority, soooooooo

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Firefox on iOS, is in fact, Webkit/Firefox, or as I've recently taken to calling it, Webkit plus Firefox. Firefox on iOS is not a web browser unto itself, but rather another component of a functioning mobile web browser system made useful by the Webkit core library.

how about they make a browser that doesn't break your add ons and redesign the UI every 18 months?

I haven't had any add-ons break as far back as I can remember and the UI changes, yeah I wish they'd stop doing that lol

still worth dealing with that than using some other garbage

it loving sucks that firefox couldn't just make money naturally by supplying a valuable service to the world, because a lot of the nonsense are down to the complete decoupling of the product (which *would* be a usable browser with a stable ui and addon api) and the way they make money (beg for it and get paid indirectly for ad exposures). rotor save us please.

its kind of ironic because netscape was one of the first applications that was free like that. Up until then, people were more or less used to paying for software.

I mean its lovely, dont get me wrong. Firefox as it is now is a long way away from netscape, but its just a lil ironic is all.
