"The Google told me to install Chrome, so I did."
Nonstop retarded design choices from the firefox team for the last couple years
They thought they could compete with the competition by copying them. Always steps behind.
/thread
>we copied chrome but it's worse than chrome itself
>surprised no one uses that shit anymore.
Because it became a bloated, slow piece of shit. Using Naked Browser on my Android devices. Firefox is only being used on my laptop/desktop because of lack of a better option.
>I also use Chrome on my Chromebook because no choice.
You have to think for yourself to use Firefox. 98% of users can't do this. I actually wish the world would adopt Linux just so the 98% would fuck off.
Mozilla is reimplementing memory management and extensions which breaks compatibility. Firefox will come back better than ever in the future.
Sure, I can explain why.
They just spent the last several years chasing off anyone who had a clue what they were doing in the name of "diversity" and "social justice" and are now left with a "diverse" workforce of people who don't know their ass from root.
The place is chock-full of people(?) who have no idea how to code, and are only there to push an agenda. This explains the current shitshow you're seeing with Firefox. About the only thing you can do is just sit back and watch the whole thing burn to the ground.
some1 didnt read teh article
It looks like nobody read the article 2bh...
>Fire CEO
>Hire SJW team
interesting tb h
What was there that was so interesting? The SJW's are getting conned into adding a DRM component into Firefox? Big fucking shock. Probably promised them free hormone therapy.
I mean, they spent big bucks on removing the word slave from their code base
Because Mozilla wants Firefox to turn into NotChrome
They're removing all the features that people enjoy in Firefox and making the browser look and act exactly like Chrome. I am convinced that Google sent in agents to undermine Firefox, there's no other explanation for how utterly retarded the company's recent decisions have been.
Have they removed the traditional extension system yet? I can't wait to see that shitstorm. I've been using Palemoon for the past 6 months or so, so I haven't been following the progress on Firefox (if you can even call it progress).
I honestly dont give a fuck, the internet has become such shit since normies took it over.The sooner it collapses the better.
Sjw cancer killed it
wat - this can't be real.
Going to use edge from now on - fuck my freedom and privacy. It's better to go with materialistic, founded in reality corporations rather with delusional fucks.
>vim
%/slave/nigger/g
done, wheres my 15 grand?
Notice how the Firespergs aren't even attempting damage control in this thread? They know it's over just as much as everyone else.
15 fat stacks of Americlapistanian Dolleridoos spent to remove the word "slave" from their fucking codebase and documentation so overprivileged white fucktards can avoid being triggered.
Yet more caving to corporate pressure (and financial compensation, no doubt) to include yet more draconian DRM in their browser, as per the faggot OP's article.
CEO's getting rousted from their positions due to "problematic" personal beliefs.
Just get off the sinking ship. These people aren't programmers. They don't give a fuck about free software. They probably don't even understand the concept. They only care about their agenda, and any methods to spread it further.

>so overprivileged white fucktards can avoid being triggered
Stopped reading there, retard fuck off to your socialist college and never leave.
You're a very confused man.
Pretty nonsensical response from a drone like you.
>fuck social justice
>"you're socialist!"
You're either quite confused, or a troll.
ive been using firefox for 60 years
you aint changin' this old mans mind
it offers no advantages over chrome
there is a better option
there is no reason to use firefox
it's dead
bye firefox
desu people couldn't think for themselves and used firefox because they were told to in the first place
You said fuck social justice trough social justice vocabulary, and you're keep telling me that I'm confused - you know what this mean? Your subconsciousness is aware of what you said and it's trying to project his reflection upon yourself over me.
Let's stop shitposting and tell me what browser to use, I've been only using Firefox for years and I don't want to use Chrome as I never had any pleasant experience with it.
Use Pale Moon.
>You said fuck social justice trough social justice vocabulary
Literally what?
>you know what this mean? Your subconsciousness is aware of what you said and it's trying to project his reflection upon yourself over me.
All of my whats. All of them. With an extra huh? to go with them on the side.
>Let's stop shitposting
Why? You started the shitposting, so it must have been what you wanted to do.
>tell me what browser to use
Chromium.
>I've been only using Firefox for years
Then keep using it. No one here is going to change your mind, of that I'm quite sure.
that's just an obsolete version of firefox that was forked before they removed 64-bit support (reintroduced into main long ago).
Their website looks like an retard made it.
It gives me all my freedoms without supporting Mozilla.
I have never been as satisfied with a browser as I am right now.
because they keep pulling bullshit like pic related
This was the last fucking straw, gonna force myself to get comfortable with chrome
Got infected by SJWs.
I have changed 3 companies I worked at from firefox to chrome, this is well over 2000 users.
I told them it was because firefox sucks, but the real reason is sjws.
Yeah it's all the fault of the SJWs Sup Forums , the world is so simple just like your brain, I'm sure it's all one big boogeyman.
SJWs
>We need more browsers that treat their users, rather than publishers, as their customers.
is that why Firefox is forcefully downloading binary blobs (OpenH264) and blackbox-DRM-modules (EME)?
>everyone who sees what's happening is a Sup Forumstard
Ok.
Firefox is dying because they don't listen to the end user. They're too bust ramming down features like pocket and web extensions that no one asked for.
Yeah you're always the holder of the truth right?
There are many factors why thing end HP happening, and one of the reasons in this case is states in the very article OP posted. Of course no one here read it because you just come to push your old tired alt right agenda.
>15,000 spend on removing the word "slave" because it's triggering them
>fuck eich, he's "problematic" due to his personal beliefs
>oh boy, more drm!
Yeah, it's all just a big conspiracy. No SJWs here.
wait they prevent you from going to the website at all? WOW fuck them, I haven't updated FF since FF 40 and don't plan on to
Holy shit this superiority complex from a FUCKING BROWSER
chrome canary doesn't do this™
SA pls
Yeah and I checked whether chrome was pulling the same you cant access the site no matter what. Nope, let me access it after saying are you sure you still wanna access it
whats the difference between chrome and chromium?
That's part of HSTS. HTTP Strict Transport Security. The word "Strict" is literally in the name. It means you don't have an option to use invalid or non-HTTPS connections. Mozilla didn't create the standard, the IETF did. Mozilla just implemented it. The same thing happens in Chrome.
it does not happen in chrome
chrome has google botnet, chromium doesn't
chrome is based off chromium
chromium on windows doesn't have proprietary codecs (you won't be able to run mp4 nativelly in the browser for example) or on youtube.
chromium on linux can have the proprietary codecs easily if you google
you used to be able to "hack" windows-chromium to make it play proprietary codecs but they patched that out
the developers don't even fucking use it
to put it in retard terms, firefox is a garage queen hot rod for mozilla. they pour effort into useless shit that nobody who would actually use it cares about just so they can say "it does this!"
and they can get away with it, because FOSS is never a product, just a sponsored effort. as long as they have sponsors they are turning some sort of profit.
Chrome ships pre-compiled and with proprietary Google technology. Chromium is fully open source.
Yes, it does. I know this for a fact because I have to deal with it all the time at work. Google uses HSTS on their website. People connect to our network, try to go to a Google service in Chrome, and they see an HSTS rejection page because we have a captive portal and Chrome doesn't like it.
that site works fine on FF with http because their https implementation is fucked up
I can access Torrentz.eu from Chrome but still cannot find a workaround to access it from FF
So I dont what to tell you
HSTS is a cross-browser standard. No user recourse is part of the standard. It's meant to protect retards who fall for phishing scams.
You can always patch your browser to disable it, but having no control is part of the standard in case some retard figures out how to gain control
If that's the case, they probably had HSTS enabled at some point, and you visited it while it was enabled. Once that happens, it stays on for the time period specified in the header it received, even if they disable it. The default is usually a year. I can visit that shitty site in Firefox just fine because they currently do not use HSTS and I never visited it while they did.
Instead of blaming Firefox you should try to understand how shitty standards work, since it works the same way in Chrome.
...
because instead of innovating they just spin the same old junk, with more stuff that nobody wants
servo should be good though. hope they don't shit it up
>anime
>trying to ever say anything
You just proved his point.
>I don't know the difference between an anime and a drawing.
The post
Yes but you can opt to bypass it.
No, you can't. Not without patching your browser.
Where can I find a patch ?
this.. it protects retards like
>People connect to our network, try to go to a Google service in Chrome, and they see an HSTS rejection page because we have a captive portal and Chrome doesn't like it.
GOOD
FUCKING
RIDDANCE
You write one yourself and compile Chromium or Firefox. Compiling them will probably take the longest.
By the way, pic related is the Chrome version of the HSTS rejection. You'll notice there is no proceed link. It's a massive pain in the ass for my organization.
I'd agree with you if we weren't ass deep in Google for infrastructure. Also, Google isn't the only site that uses HSTS, just the one that causes the most issues.
Why am I a retard ? I just want to access that site and know the risks. I just dont have the freedom to do so now
Their browser is so bad people would rather give their data to Google themselves than put up with it every day.
That's not a problem with Firefox Developer Edition.
Blame the site operator for enabling HSTS then. Mozilla and Google just implemented the standard as put forward by the IETF. It's an optional security measure that server administrators need to manually turn on.
I meant good fucking riddance that your captive portal stops working.
HSTS is the way forward. I hope every single website forces it, along with HPKP.
Go fuck yourself and your MITMing. You are no better than the NSA, at least they hide it.
Not sure exactly where your anger stems from. We don't do HTTPS inspection. We just use the portal for authentication and authorization.
I dunno, but when my browsing experience began to deteriorate and I couldn't find solutions to my problems, I just migrated to Chrome, which did fix them.
>it offers no advantages over chrome
it cater to my autism. can't do shit with chrome's UI
it has nothing to do with the browser you use, dumbshit
A woman CEO took over
>it offers no advantages over chrome
large number of high-quality addons, fantastic customizability, color management support, ability to turn off google tracking, need I go on?
Gecko also handles some things much better than WebKit, e.g. text selection.
Good, it deserves to die. The people in charge of it are fucking retards who spend more time on outreach programs and tinkering with the UI than fixing basic fucking funtionality. It's 2016 and e10s is STILL not stable, seven years after work began on it.
Anybody with half a brain switched to Chromium a long time ago.
>I am convinced that Google sent in agents to undermine Firefox, there's no other explanation for how utterly retarded the company's recent decisions have been.
That's an utterly retarded thing to say.
Google doesn't need to send in "agents" when they already bankroll half of Mozilla's revenue stream. It's not a secret, it's right there in Mozilla's public reports.
>ITT:
>click bait title with entirely different content
>people shitposting because they are too dumb and lazy to read a proper article
Sup Forums is stupid like usual
Use an old, insecure, browser that doesn't implement HSTS then.
>when they already bankroll half of Mozilla's revenue stream
How? Mozilla switched default search providers to Yahoo! so I'm not sure where Google funding would come from.
>implying I even know how to read
It's almost as if making political and social causes your primary objectives over the quality of your product and management may lead to bad decisions.
Pretty sure Google was also donating money directly to them, Mozilla is a not-for-profit organisation after all.
Chrome doesn't support my trackpad properly and has no real alternative for one of the extensions I use. I have no choice but to use Firefox.
tfw no rikaisama on chrome
Well that tears it, Chromium here I come.
>which means that 4-5 different users are going with me

Check out Opera first, it's pretty much an objective improvement over Chrom*
Chrome does not support high DPI text as well as Firefox. With Chrome the spacing for text is messed up.
That depends on your system. Firefox uses system font rendering while Chromium-based browsers use their own font rendering.
>wiki.installgentoo.com
Someone ought to update this page to reflect current developments. There's a lot of people who don't post to Sup Forums but still use the wiki for advice.
Hell according to that page using Chromium is a bad idea for those of us who like our privacy.
Indeed. Well, I use Windows 7 and Firefox can display correctly through it.
If I knew a way to fix Chromium's fonts I'd use it as my main browser. It lacks some video playback but I can live with it.
Ad-block is what is making Firefox sluggish. It affects Chrome too to a lesser extent.
Turn off ad-block and a lot of pages become 10x more responsive. But then you have ads...
