I only use Ublock Origin, so all my addons still work, yay~

Aside from my adblocker, I only use stylus and tampermonkey so not a big issue.

Im more concerned with Mozilla adding more nonsense like Pocket into the browser. Why do we do screenshot capability in browser? Questionable UI choices, trying to unify mobile and desktop UI with hamburger menus

I use uBlock and swapped from NoScript to uMatrix cos I was tired of waiting for a WebExtensions version. Way better than Firefox 56.

If you don't use ad-blockers, there is a performance increase!
If you did use ad-blockers in the previous Firefox versions, then the performance is the same!

All of my addons work except
>media keys for youtube
And it's a lot faster.
It used to take several seconds loading a session with 200 tabs no matter how fast my processor and SSD was, now the same session is almost instant.
They've really improved scalability this is a poweruser browser.
Chrome is fine if you have an ultrabook though I guess.

I use abp in chrome and its still faster than firefox without

I have several addons I use for my work like color picker, ruler, stuff for javascript and CSS. None of them work, and the substitutes they recommend also doesn't work. My old addon for filling my tabs and blanks with cute moe anime girls to make my shitty life brighter also doesn't work. Tab organizer, tab colors, tab tags, dynamic favorites, global search, the list goes on.

I just reinstalled 56 of course, but I wonder how many people will actually drop of firefox in rage. Apparently even addons for disabled people don't work anymore, with no substitute.

>using extensions to block ads

>I wonder how many people will actually drop of firefox in rage
A very insignificant amount.

all addons work

>being autistic

>thinking ublock is a plain adblocker
lol

Show a working addon for hiding tabs.

I just upgraded today. So far the only difference I noticed is that scrolling using Vimium feels smoother. Dunno what all this fuss is about, really.

>muh addons
literally kill yourself you fucking autist

>say for months that Firecuck Quantum is just Mozilla trying to be Inferior Chrome

KEK

Seems like it's time to migrate to WaterFox.

Y-yeah....everything works just fine [spoiler];_;[/spoiler]

how do you want to hide tabs?
if you're using tree style tabs you can hide the top tabs with css and then view->toolbars->menu bar to get window buttons back.

>addon for hiding tabs
Pic related.
Also bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1384515

F11

...

bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1384515 will let you do that.

What purpose does this serve though?

Why. Bookmark it, close and then re-open it, or detach the window and minimize it.

I hide tabs I'm not using but don't want to close so I don't get lost in so many tabs. For example, I'm following various threads but I don't want them on the top taking up space, so I just hide all of them and from time to time check if there is answers like pic. Your solutions doesn't show if there is aswers for the threads because it doesn't show the title of the tab in a quick dropdown menu.

Threads answers are just an example. Multiple websites put a (1) or so in your tab when there's a message or something similar.

>Bookmark it
I use bookmarks for pages I might need in a distant future

>close and then re-open it
If the page ceases to exist, I'll lose what was in it

>detach the window and minimize it
I already fill a three level taskbar with stuff and get lost so many programs I need open at the same time for my work. Last thing I need is another one.

On phone this is a complete disaster. The start page is utterly cluttered now, can't read shit.
And wtf is Pocket? And why is this forced shit now in Firefox?

doesnt scare me if i had no addons to begin with unlike the autismo REEEEEEtards screeching around here :^)

>Not knowing that hosts files take CPU cycles
And yes your router has a CPU too

>And wtf is Pocket? And why is this forced shit now in Firefox?
dunno but it's been in for a while and you can disable it in about:config for the rest click that little gear on the right

Menu items can be added programmatically so it should be possible to recreate that extension in webextensions once the tab hiding api is added.

I just use a separate window for Sup Forums.

> once the tab hiding api is added.
Which is basically never.

Sure. But I don't know how to do that and don't plan to invest time in something that is already made. I'll just keep using 56 until I can't anymore.

At work at least. I don't think I have any extensions I need desperately at home, I mostly watch anime and play games.

The patch is already written.

But it's not Mozilla approved™

Reminder that FF26 is faster with a new profile than FF57.

Are you retarded or just pretending?
wiki.mozilla.org/WebExtensions/TabHiding

Yea did that already, but I'm still baffles why a browser like FF needs this forced botnet newswire bullshit

You'll see. Quantum is Mozilla way of sift out pro-hetero extensions.

How the fuck is an extensions related to sexuality, are you fucking retarded?
s/When where/Where were
Vimium is garbage desu
>vomnibar
lmao, I want VimFx back desu

>company openly against hetero marriage
>are you fucking retarded?
Are you?

>thinking marriage shouldn't be just for heteros means you're anti-hetero
(You) also haven't explained how that is related to XUL extensions.

You can do this with the multi-account containers ads on

Are you mentally handicapped? Think about your question for over a second

>>let me load your pages a 0.001 second faster
I'm pretty sure it doesn't.

I get that Mozilla is SJW, and they are deprecating XUL extensions. Don't see how those are related (other than "only retarded sjws are stupid enough for this shit" which doesn't have to do with political views of extensions or their writers)

Nevermind. I was angry and got carried. I apologize.

Private tab

One good thing that came out of it for me is I make a chrome extension and literally just pass it through AMO now for a FF57 add-on.

why aren't you guys just running FF 56 w/multi process support forced?

because FF56 has critical security vulnearabilities. I mean, I guess it's fine to stay on it for a while if you are waiting for one specific addon to get ported in the next week or 2, but staying on 56 permanently is just stupid.

Well done, mozilla, well done. I know that housewives who only use adblock at best is the absolute majority but still. If i wanted chrome i'd use chrome. Or vivaldi which is shit but still more able than ff57.

I switched to waterfox. Downgraded 3 addons temporarily, everything else is fine. I presume wf devs are gonna backport ff57+ security fixes to wf.
>ported in the next week or 2
ur funny

>>can't backup/restore my profile easily
What did they do to it? You can't just copy the folder anymore?

>Chrome wins again
The browser that recently got a function to mute tabs?
Thanks, even without legacy addons, FF BTFO that trash.

> copy the folder
I used febe for autobackups and easy restoration.

How many months until firefox becomes usable again?

They have to add a shitton of missing webextensions apis to restore butchered functionality. And then devs will have to rewrite their legacy addons again. So i'd say from at least a year to never.

>My old addon for filling my tabs and blanks with weeb shit doesn't work

Well what a fucking disaster.

Oh, so it's a plugin that doesn't work anymore?
Couldn't you just write a script that copies the folder then?

I could, but why would i ditch a perfectly functional and os independent addon? I'm staying on 56 anyway.

Right? How is a man supposed to live without cute 2D girls surrounding his boring work

What is the best image hover extension?

Dunno what you're going on about user, quantum is working fine for me.

I use greasemonkey and ad block, everything is fine. Now, go fuck yourself.

>these 2 ad ons work so everything is fine
neck yourself.

This except the tab bar if only 1 tab is open. Also shrinking icons. I don't have a touch screen, so buttons don't have to be so big.

Not really viable for me because I still would want access to history and bookmarks.

Really, I want to customize it down to a single bar, no tabs: with menu, back/forward/reload, maybe home, address bar, and window minimize/restore/close. Is that too much to ask?

>cow
>no tits to milk

I know its possible to autohide tabs or bookmarks or the address bar with userChrome.css. I've copied someone elses css and it worked. I dont use it any more though. I moved everything to one line

Why did Firefox copy everything from Chrome except its performance?

>He uses lots of different add ons and not just ublock and script blockers

You do realise that most of these add ons are just spyware, right?

Pic related is what I would prefer. Seems like such a simple thing, but automatic tabs make it difficult.

Are you literally retarded?
Open up Firefox, in the address bar type about:config, then type "legacy" in the search bar that pops up.
Look for "extensions.legacy.enabled" , set it to true and then restart Firefox. Done, you should be able to download and use old addons.

Firefox ESR here. I’ll admit I probably use Chromium more often. Chrome never wins.

Better performance, but some of my shit doesn't work. I'm confused as to how I should feel. Any replacements for Img2tab and Save Images?

Probably won't interest anyone, but

support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1170758

Here how to keep the latest version, together with an older one. Very simple process explained. Just create a second, non default, profile. And manually instal an old FF version. I still use 56.0.2 for a few things that don't work with the new 57.

FF57 is slower without NoScript
FF57 is infested with JS ads and shit flying around the damn window
about:config
javascript.enabled: false
Now the damn Sup Forums catalog doesn't work

sudo pacman -Rc firefox

fuck this

>using arch

How can this place simultaneously be a place where nobody gets along, but also the only place where anyone ever truly seems to admit fault. Wondrous!

Firefox should give up on their add-ons and adapt chrome store like everyone else. Half of the add-ons are either outdated or non-functional, so go to a market where things actually work.

I just installed a portable apps version, works fine.

I remember the times you could literally make firefox look the way you wanted, but ever since they took and implemented code from chrome we can only rice as much as the variety in the current mozilla addons site.

Why Blur out the add-ons name?
How am I supposed to believe this picture is true?

Use -Rns

I remember when Sup Forums knew what they were doing
git gud

>changed UI color to dark that can be literally done by clicking 2 things since it comes with the browser
>download dark 4shit stylish teheme

>didn't even change how tabs look
>didn't even set tabs on the bottom and/or change the URL back size and shape
>didn't even add his own icons in the bar

yep, newfag 2000 baby spotted

>tfw the update killed your reverse image search add-on

PFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFTTTTTTTTTTTT HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA you call that ricin your browser?

go to unixporn 3 years ago, and learn something

Point still stands. Nu Sup Forums is too busy complaining instead of actually doing shit. All of what you said is possible. You have shit taste btw ;)

That's not an ESR release.

Jesus Christ, if you're going to prove someone wrong, at least post a fucking good example.

Retarded fuck, you can't even rice.

user, taste is subjective. I find your browser to be retarded.

how much did you rice compared to that picture?
besides stealing the overused code for dark Sup Forums and the embedded dark ff theme

congratulations bro now go ahead and change your windows command prompt's text to green and call yourself MR ROBOT XDDDDd

I'm sorry user, I don't like your rice.

For the first time in a century, Firefox seems faster than Chrome, at least with some things. The user experience is at least good. Big improvement.

tab buttons became square and now everything is 5x faster. awesome

mint 17 xfce

t. winbabbys first stylish theme and FF dark bucket theme replacement

laul

Show me your super leet windows rice user.
Can tell you're running shitdows 10.

>reddit

All that bullshit and you still can't drag a tab to the side of the screen to make it appear in a half-wide window. fucking Internet Explorer could do that for ten years now.

If Edge had a RSS reader, I'd honestly switch to that.
