6·5 天前It’s an unverified extension and an about:config variable
26·5 天前Concurrent ads is one usage, yes. But from when people started reacting on YouTube, I always thought there should be a more seamless way. When I started seeing takedown notices for people reacting to music videos, I thought why can’t they just overlay/embed it. It seemed like a no-brainer to me. Now that technology is finally here.
As for the technology being co-opted by ads, on my TV I don’t have ReVanced and so am stuck with ads, if I can have silent ads play at the side rather than delay what I’m trying to watch at the beginning of a video, I’d go for the side ads.
So…
Great. Here’s something no one asked for
Except me!
If they didn’t have safeguarding in place, I’d be more worried. As with all things Firefox, it can be overridden.

Settings -> Security & Privacy -> Advanced Protection
If you disable advanced protection, you can bypass their check
Nothing. I expect a lawsuit at some point that complains that nothing useful is being shared.

Some of the design decisions and indecisions that have come from the UX team has led me to feel like none of them actually use Android, let alone Firefox for Android. But I’d absolutely love to be wrong about this and just ignorant of their vision and their passion for modern Android design. It can’t be easy to try and deploy designs and see a design come to fruition, only to not have the staff to implement it. It’s worth mentioning that the size of Fenix Team is miniscule compared to the desktop team or even the combined sum of people working on AI. Which is crazy given the size of the mobile market.
That said, they got there in the end and I’m happy with the implementation whereby they put the navigation at the top for people who want the address bar at the top and at the bottom for people who want the address bar at the bottom.
I bet they’re gonna try and require VPN websites to put age checks on them.

Free Palestine. But what has this gotta do with Piracy? 🥺
It’s just because it’s the toolbar rewritten in Jetpack Compose rather than the old one which was written with XML and used a custom parser.
Yep, bookmark feels like something no one needs with any regularity.
There’s also some new secret settings for the new toolbar.
It’s good but slow. Though I may just be unreasonable.
Don’t forget this too
Making a browser is ridiculously hard. Getting people to use it even harder.
