And since you won’t be able to modify web pages, it will also mean the end of customization, either for looks (ie. DarkReader, Stylus), conveniance (ie. Tampermonkey) or accessibility.
The community feedback is… interesting to say the least.
I loved it around 20 years ago, but somewhere towards the mid-to-late 00’s it got bloated and slow. It was like that probably until recently if i’m being honest. I heard it’s maybe better now but i’m not sure.
It got better years ago. I stopped using it around the late 00’s myself because it was consuming all of my RAM. But I started using it again about 5 years ago and it’s better than chrome now.
Edited typos
I bailed from Firefox for about a year after they added the godawful Firefox button (4.0 maybe?); then I got fed up with Chrome and by that point there was an extension to remove the Firefox button
What’s the Firefox button? I don’t use any extension to remove it, but I also don’t see any button tied to FF itself that I need to remove.
I used it up to the early 2000’s and it just seemed to slow down. I recently did a series of synthetic benchmarks on all the browsers and Firefox was the slowest of the batch. It’s still the only browser left not built on chromium I think. Opera GX was the fastest in terms of benchmarking.
