On firefox for Android, if you installed “Google search fixer” addon, it causes browser to freeze when interacting with images in Google search. Someone please report this to mozilla. Using the android browser without that addon is almost impossible.
Why don’t you report it?
This is a known issue and was reported by someone else on the project’s GitHub previously.
The developer of addon seems to be inactive. Firefox android is doomed for me if it isn’t fixed.
But like, why does it have to be Google? (Or this extension specifically?)
If you’re super attached to the google search results then try startpage. If you’re willing to branch out a bit try Duckduckgo, it’s based on Bing instead and lately seems like more folks prefer Bing’s engine to Google’s.
And as others have mentioned you could use any old useragent switcher to pretend to be Chrome
What this addon does exactly? I did read the extension page, but it does not tell.
Override the user-agent string presented to Google Search pages to receive the search experience shown to Chrome on Firefox for mobile / tablet.
can’t you just manually edit the user agent in the about:config menu and achieve the same result?
