Why is everyone freaking out over Firefox?

Why is everyone freaking out over Firefox?

I have no idea honestly, but I'm not ditching firefox.

Mozilla made a fucky wucky and forgot to renew the certificate Firefox uses to verify extensions, then proceeded to take almost two days to fix the issue.

>Be Brave, _____ man.
Fill in the blanks: former?

Brave is 40% better.

this. my brain still hurts from all the ads I had to see

F for Firefox

disable. signature. checking. faggot

>t, Firefox employee

>Despite their young age they also have been caught doing things that are questionable at best, but in my opinion just unethical. One thing was that they whitelisted Facebook (!) without disclosing it or warning users about it. Somebody has to discover it in the code. They did that in order to not break websites for casual users, but that really doesn't explain why they forgot to document that for advanced users. I wouldn't trust brave shield after that.

>Another thing is that they use content creators to promote their BAT rewards system, even without the creators knowledge. Brave gave users the impression they could give to creators just by visiting their website. But if the creator isn't verified with brave the BAT the user ment to send them are set aside for some time (90 days I believe, maybe shorter), there is no(!) attempt made to try and notify the creator to verify themselves so they can access the BAT, and after the time is up the money (BAT) goes back to the brave folks, without notifying the user.

>Tom Scott discovered that and after it became public brave promised to create an op-out. Not opt-in, opt-out. And that only after their practices were uncovered. Brendan Eich openly stated that opt-in would be bad for their growth, and that's obviously more important than not deceiving user or using unsuspecting content creators.

>So now they say that's brave ads are opt-in and all ad-targeting will be done offline. But you'll have to forgive if I'm a bit sceptical about the future development. Who says they aren't going to again make undocumented changes to make it easier for casual users or do something that's legal but unethical to support their own growth?

FF banned Dissenter a free speech addon

I didn't care about anything Mozilla did, but banning and going so far as to blacklist the Dissenter addon because it allows people to say things they personally disagree with was the end for me.

Can someone pls explain to me how are my addons off too, when I'm using FF ver60. and auto-updates are off?

Thwy stopped working yesterday.

Be brave, closeted man.

This isn't because of some new update they pushed, this is because the client-side certificate they have been using for the past fuck-knows-how-many years has expired. You will have to either disable signature checking or update.

Oh, thanks.

Reminder that if you see people calling YOU an idiot for not disabling signature checking, that they're secretly Mozilla employees on damage control
shut the fuck up tranny

Jokes on you I use chromium

>then proceeded to take almost two days to fix the issue.
The issue still isn't {{fixed}} as the solutions and temp solutions are even more fucked up then the browser itself.

>_____
Goyim?

There was actually a setting in about:config that fixed the problem immediately.
Folks are just retards I guess.
>xpinstall.signatures.required=false

Bunch of manbabies had to support the websites they regularly visit for 2 days.

And it should be called Jow Forumsrave as supposed to be a response to 'brave'

Mozilla/Firefox is part funded by George Soros. It can no longer be trusted.

/threads/

They have a built in blocker, you know...

Because mozilla faggots keep making shill thread like this one with the same formulas over and over and over and over...

Firefox is malware.

2 late made the switch to brave!

Go back to fixing your shit browser

I'll make the.... anthem

Overreaction definitely for some, but it was def a major issue and concern of course. But now the issue is resolved and we can move on and hopefully things can be learned from it. Things happen. I don't need to switch yet and if/when I do it will prob be to a fork first. I don't want any one browser to dominate.

I'm all about free speech within fair legal limits (slander/libel/direct threats of violence to people etc.) but that thing is way too Jow Forums for my taste.

Changing
>xpinstall.signatures.required=false
not enabling extensions back :(

>I don't want any one browser to dominate.
I had the same dream up until the area director said with no uncertain terms that since more than 93% of the client base arrived at both the web-banking and the accounts/cards solutions via chrome, the development effort of all 2019 products would concentrate entirely on that browser.
The future is chromy and we're all to blame

>But now the issue is resolved
>forcing all user to update
>resolved
There's only so much dick sucking a mouth can take before the jaw eventually collapse

Because Jow Forums anons are peak stage Dunning Kruger

>people I don't like use this addon therefore it's bad

How do you wan't to apply a fix without downloading and applying it thus updating software?

No , I just mean I personally wouldn't use it.

who cares, if you can install addons from outside the store? can't do that on chrome.
>b-but you can't on newest release!!!
use an older version or a nightly. the latest release isn't the only version in existance. i'll be here, enjoying waterfox with just the right extensions to make browsing a pleasure

because a certain group of people made shit from the once best browser

It's a software patch oh boo fucking hoo.

Fair enough.

By telling exactly why extensions turned off

Eh not me, I honestly have never even used chrome before.

I don't know either
There's no reason to be so worked up over a dedicated porn browser.
