Mozilla focusing on the real issues

>We have to admit that we expected to see some major features and improvements, but that hasn't happened. The biggest new feature of the Firefox 50.0 release appears to be emoji for everyone. That's right, the web browser now ships with built-in emoji for GNU/Linux distributions,

Oh, how the mighty have fallen

what the fuck like 5 years ago they had the best browser par none. what happened? was it that they decided to hire for diversity instead of merit or did the devs just huff too much air duster?

SJWs and hipster programmers.

They
>Fired a CEO because he was at the point of time against gay marriage
>Started focusing on and pandering to SJWs
>Google has been focusing a better browser experience

the glorious programming skills of blue hair feminist dykes and effeminate hipster javascript devs
this
some dumb motherfuckers over there

Diversity and trying to copy google instead of keep being the better browser, even if with a smaller userbase.

Hence they became a basd copy of google with an even smaller userbase, because who likes chrome is already on clone and has no reason to switch.

i bet the feminazis got a white man to install the emojis too

they are literally dead weight, leeching off a once great browser

desu I see it more as natural selection, imagine being such a moron you get manipulated by a bunch of entitled sociopathic fat cunts to give up your foundation and let em call the shots

>what the fuck like 5 years ago they had the best browser par none. what happened?
selling out to companies for some quick cash, letting SJWs run the show, spending all income on women's outreach

All mozilla has been trying to do is desperately imitate chrome. They have fallen far, far, far from grace.

I use qutebrowser these days

liberalism destroys everything

Wtf I was glad I couldn't see emojis.
Fuck off you little bastards.

it's not to late to switch to a different browser, user

hey slut
like chromium

>there isn't another browser that supports all my add-ons out of the box

there are alternatives under different names i bet

So if (in Sup Forums's opinion at least) Firefox is absolute shit now, what should we use?

EMOJI LUL

emoji is the biggest cancer since social media.

just use brave browser, firefox is dead.

Sup Forums filters emoji. Smdh 2bh f a m

They fired Eich.

chromium ofc
or qutebrowser

...

Click the links if you dare. But I'm sure you're having more fun rehashing the stale "Mozilla invaded by SJW" meme than actually getting the facts right.

finally lincucks will get emojis

>just use brave browser, firefox is dead.
What about seamonkey?

Doesn't Chromium still have privacy issues?

I've never heard of qutebrowser

OP here

DELET THIS

Sup Forums needs to get wit the times -.-

>biggest cancer since social media
>since
hideous gaudy yellow faces making shitty faces have been around since before 'social media'.
Smileys on forums and IM programs were just as cancerous as the smileys in unicode.

nice try
nope, all clean

Trying again

qutebrowser

Oh, alright. I admit it'll be kinda hard to switch from Firefox, since I've used it since Netscape Communicator (Netscape 4) way back in the day, so it might just be nostalgic bias.

>Doesn't Chromium still have privacy issues?
Yes, it also doesn't let you customize basically at all and the addon selection is pretty shit compared to firefox

Looking it up, it sounds a bit like Luakit, but with Python instead of Lua.

>(in Sup Forums's opinion at least)

Look at its market share. Face it, the sjws ran it into the ground. If anything Sup Forums are the only ones who are autistic enough to not let it go and still use it.

I need Firefox because I need appchan x (or something similar but I'm too lazy to find one) because I need Sup Forumsthread/14988888/ type URLs, not

Sup Forumsthread/14988888/I-really-want-to-fuck-this-loli

This sounds a bit like being stuck between multiple less than great choices.

Why? Scared google and the NSA will think your taste in loli is shit?

I suppose. It's pretty similar to pentadactyl, which is what drew me to it.

pentadactyl is basically RIP at this point, so I needed a replacement and qutebrowser was the closest I could find.

The thing mozilla doesn't realize is the only people who still used firefox after chrome got popular were those who didn't want it to turn into another chrome clone

then what did mozilla do? turn it into another chrome clone

I'm scared my ISP will think my taste in lolis is unbearable.

I get you, I used firefox when it didn't have tabs, I loved it but I had to make the switch because it's on a downfall since 2010

Yes, I bet normies care about whether it's run by SJWs or not, has nothing to do with Google pushing ads for Chrome literally everywhere since they own Google and YouTube, the sites normies use 95% of the time. Hell, go on YouTube without adblock and you literally get at least two ads saying how "YouTube runs better with Chrome"

The only needed extensions are adblocker, Sup Forums x, and RES.

I like vim but I generally prefer to only use it in a terminal when I have to (or doing so would be easiest/most convenient)

So it's best to just go with an actual Chrome/Chromium based browser?
Also what the fuck is Firefox Hello, and why the fuck does it exist as a part of the browser itself instead of an optional addon?

>I'm scared my ISP will think my taste in lolis is unbearable.

>ISPs

EVERYONE thinks your taste is unbearable.

Get your shit together.

>RES

we'll be the judge of that

>"YouTube runs better with Chrome"+

Which is absolutely true. And not only youtube but anything media related. Maybe that's why normies use it, that's the only thing they care about.

Post what you think is good loli, lets settle this now.

Chrome has the shittiest tab management on the planet

/thread

I wish Firefox still had the tab grouping feature, but they got rid of an actually useful feature to replace it with cancer.

How else can I browse /r/Sup Forums comfortably?

But this is /g oh right.

You guys are retarded

nice
be a good little girl and post moar :3

If you don't know Illya I gave you the show name. It's a great fap mater I mean anime.

I can read the file title, I want you to post more hot stuff like a good little slut

>So it's best to just go with an actual Chrome/Chromium based browser?
That makes no sense. At that point you might as well just stick with firefox, it will still be better than the actual devil it tries to copy.

Using chrome β€œbecause firefox is getting too shitty” is the most fucking ironic thing I've ever heard, because the only thing getting shitty about firefox is that it's becoming more like chrome.

Anyway, I would use an independent webkit or webengine-based browser that is not chrome itself

kek 🀣

I don't mean Chrome itself. I mean something like Iridium or Brave.

Quantity != quality, all small things like the emoji thing, it literally is the most relevant update sadly
sure, it's not that the rendering is slower in linux, or that the plugins are getting less updates due to loss in popularity, or lack of support for formats like chrome has

>5 years ago
You have to go back [spoiler]further in time[/spoiler]

These smiley faces are too small I can't see shit

Problems with this sinking SJW ship:

>Smileys on forums and IM programs were just as cancerous as the smileys in unicode.
no they werent.

preach, they're just too easily manipulated to keep a good product, unlike linus torvalds that goes off on em and puts em in their place

Yes. They were. In fact, some were even worse.

seriously who the fuck cares about emojis. its just another cop out to push """"features""""

thats what one gets for using tumblrinas as programmers

just fucking get brave, the new 12.9 is bad ass

I refuse to use products from a company that demonizes being a white male.

This. Firefox has proper vertical tabs and allows you to change things if your austism disagrees with it.

Lol. I put a butterfly near my name :3

Typical.

How do you put emotes with your post?

Firefox. Firefox... What a shame. It was the best browser back in the day. What the fuck happened? It's embarrassing.

Recently installed it again. Was hoping to give it a second chance. Going to use it as a shitposting riced browser, but I got as far as Sup Forums x, ublock, and greasemonkey before I couldn't take it anymore.

The whole fucking browser sucks. It's fucking trash holy shit I didn't know browsers could suck because I was used to Chrome.

Fuck it, went back to Chrome. I'd rather do EVERYTHING on Chrome than to use Firefox. Stupid trash even Edge is better, but to be fair it's an amazing browser that holds its own against Chrome.

I remember when they added the stupid Firefox built in messenger bullshit...

how do i type in emoji

Glad I don't actually use firefox

wtf how 🀀

its full of boxes

That's because your browser is shit dude.

they were kill as soon as their version numbering system went off the rails (everything after 4.0)

When is Tree Style Tabs getting ported to Chrome?

>chrome >good
>still loads all tabs on start-up
>muting tabs is an advanced feature
>download manager is still shitty as shit
Does Chrome even do website-specific download folders? I like that I can have Sup Forums images download to one folder, but stuff from porn sites download to another without having to constantly navigate directories.

I don't see what's so bad though?

And it also finally has multiprocess in the stable release

I never called chrome good, stop quoting me

>>download manager is still shitty as shit

>not using IDM

the rest can be fixed by extensions, cuck

In 50? How come it isn't in the changelog? I only see the emoji shit.

>tfw using firefox since 2.5
>tfw every once in awhile encounter a website which just doesn't work with firefox and have to open chromium
>tfw insurance website so shit have to boot into windows and use IE because payment system doesn't even work in Chrome

holy shit, IE6-like days still going strong

I stopped using Firefox because of the memory leaks. I tried to use it again a few times but the memory leaks were still there. I don't remember the last time I tried to use it, but I imagine the leaks must be fixed at this point

Not him but even with firefox I only see boxes.

Update it to 50 probably.

So I guess this means I won't have to load random fonts from random sources to view smiley faces? Sounds okay-ish to me.

It had multiprocess in stable since 48 you just have to enable it manually

This. I fucking welcome the muslim hoards at this point. I'll be giving them directions to the nearest night-clubs and university professor neighborhoods.
