What is it lacking that you're wanting?
Not too much nowadays, actually. I just want more polish and wish Mozilla was less incompetent. Most popular browsers already had this feature and just now we got it, Firefox tends to be more late on features. But yeah Mozilla, a shitty AI sidebar is exactly what we need.
What isn't polished?
For me, Firefox doesn't feel as smooth as Chromium, in performance and scrolling. There are also some bugs that occur to me occasionally, but it's not consistent. One bug could occur then I'd never see it again.
A lot of my gripes with Firefox can be fixed with lepton and betterfox, love those two, can't use Firefox without them :)
Can't forget uBlock, too.
Ah, i see. I personally haven't had any bugs or performance issues, but if you are, then I could understand not using it.
For real, Chromium browsers are way better in Android than FF...
The sad thing is that I don't see when this prospect can change... I see (and install) countless updates for my Firefox Beta app and my experience has remained the same, it is especially subpar with tab management too...
I don't use mobile browsers much, but one thing I wish FF could do is give me an easy way to move a private tab into a regular one. I have private tabs enabled by default to not pollute my history with garbage but every once in a while you want a link to open regularly and you can only do it my manually open the address bar, selecting the URL, copying it, closing the tab, switching to non private mode, open a new tab, paste the address, confirm. This is excessively long and annoying, even for mobile phones and their terrible multitasking issues.
You are right, although to be honest I have never used private tabs that way, I assume what you want to achieve is possible in other browsers.
