Why do they keep trying to fuck with their one-digit percentage userbase? Now extensions local storage will be saved as inxededDB and not plain JSON anymore. And they're using fucking ABP with 49MB storage to prove their point.

Sounds like a good thing and OP just being autistic and afraid of change. Firefox keeps improving with each release.

nobody average uses FF anymore
anyone average and above moved on a long time ago
only the well below average remain
it was a great browser

>not just using Chrome
what's your problem really? do you often go and read the config file of extensions? how does this affect you?
>how does this affect you?
It would break one of my extensions that exports browser data in real time. Plus makes troubleshooting and viewing what's in the storage outside the browser a fucking mess since you can't open it like a normal sqlite database.
Stick to chromium 68 and forget all this cuckery

It goes both ways. They improved some stuff over time and made other aspects worse.
They're killing firefox for years now, why is everybody still surprised?
>not a new IP
>OP is autistic and is afraid of change
Please be gentle
So no more extensions backup? That sucks
Think "holistic". My judgment on this one issue isn't as important as my view of the entire project. I feel as though they make more negative decisions in general.
Yes. Sometimes the neutral changes agitate me the worst because they are truly just a waste of development time/resources.
