As a long term Firefox user, I've been disappointed with Mozilla's decisions in the recent years, but this is awesome. This is the kind of features Firefox should be receiving instead of useless UI changes.

As long as Mozilla remains committed to a free and open internet, I will remain a faithful firefox user.

Even if every update after this one is a useless UI change. :p

Are you saying you don't want a button that looks like a pinned tab that only lets you change between a handful of time-limited themes?

[–] AVengefulAxolotl@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

But at the very least you can remove it

Im saying I don’t care.

I open browser search and consume the results. I don’t care for what buttons it has or doesn’t. I’m just happy it’s not Chrome or Edge.

For a born again Firefox user, what decisions?

[–] meiko60@lemmy.sdf.org 9 points 1 year ago (2 children)

no PWA support

[–] shotgun_crab@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

Or rather removing PWA support

[–] SnowdenHeroOfOurTime@unilem.org 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No *full pwa support

[–] Companion1666@lemmy.world -3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

no support

I'd agree with you, but then we'd both be wrong.

I can't seem to find the setting. Is it not available for Firefox for Android (Fenix), do you know?
