nope
>>110102853Can I use profiles like I can in edge and chrome? I remember the answer being no. I need to switch between personal work or have them open at the same time
>>110102933
>>110102933yes
>>110102972they fucked up the real profiles that you launch with firefox.exe -pset a theme on one, the other gets affected.set dns on one, the other one launches the first profile.I had clean install because of this shit.I had backups though.
Firefox is the browser everyone should be using
The latest update made me switch to Waterfox after using it for almost two decades.
>>110103010Can you explain what specific thing they added that made you quit? Sorry, I'm a newfag.
>>110102853I was hoping Microsoft would have found a way to keep manifest v2 solely for ublock origin or at least integrate the whole of ublock into the browser. Alas they are deprecating it entirely so off to Firefox. Not the worst of the world. Firefox was great and I hope it makes a good comeback.
>>110102853I used firefox once.Then one day they decided to randomly make all of my add-ons no longer work because they're basically fucking retarded.Never again.
>>110103045They changed the UI. Yeah I could make it back to like I had before, but I never asked for this. I don't give a fuck.Waterfox is just Firefox with all the bullshit trimmed.
>>110102853is it default anywhere except loonix?no
>>110103001Also you cannot run multiple profiles at the same timeI always have multiple ff browsers installed.. waterfox for daily browsing, esr for streaming, dev for my dockers..I'll never move to chrome, ever
>>110102853most of my extensions only work now on firefox, so it's not a hard choice to makefirefox will die the moment they also go for manifest v3
post the Indian ceo of Firefox bloody bastards
>>110103299So I can't have work open in one profile and personal in another open at the same time?? Wtf
>>110102853>Firefox>making a comebackHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA>b-but you can disable the AI shitPeople don't WANT to baby their fucking web browser. You think it's funny going over every changelog wondering what retarded BS they might have added to Firefox this week? Dumb shit being opt-out isn't good enough for most people. Maybe the Mozillafags will realise this at some point.
>>110103061Brave still supports MV2 extensions, including uBO. >inb4 pajeet/shill/you're brownGive it a rest, trannyfoxy.
>>110104841> So I can't have work open in one profile and personal in another open at the same time?? WtfYes you can and they are completely isolated. I have three profiles. It's worth noting that there is an older profile management tool in about:profiles and a new one in the burger menu; they both work properly but for some reason they are separate and have their own sets of profiles.
>>110104964Appreciate you, I'm going to try it out
>>110102853I don't care. After the last update, when they changed the UI again, my bookmarks bar disappeared. I know there's an option somewhere put it back, but I can't be bothered. I need stable software, not this experimental crap. I uninstalled Firefox forever.
>>110104904go away chromeshill
>>110104980Ctrl+Shift+B is too much for you to other to get your bookmarks bar back?
>>110102853No, because they are literally transgender.All their tracking is enabled by default.
>>110105609They who?
>>110105664Kit is nonbinary, anon. Don't be a bigot.
>>110105664Mozilla.We need more than deplatforming.
>>110105846Mozilla is not a person.
>>110105883Every single employee of Mozilla is transgender. Every single user of Firefox is transgender.They is plural.
>>110105895All of them? I find it hard to believe.
>>110105883Corporations are more people than the average human, retard.
>>110103061Microsoft axed all browser development beyond a skeleton crew who creates a unique skin for the browser, so it's not surprising that they wouldn't bother forking manifest v2. Even if they did, Google would add some dozen new things that would require v3 and actively breaks Youtube or Gmail or whatever the fuck if you don't have them, same way they killed off Windows Phone too by making sure Youtube would not work on it.
thanks but i’m sticking with brave sir
>>110102853>new UI is actually goodKys post haste
>>110105895>Every single user of Firefox is transgender.no
>>110102853I hate the new UI, the gradient is obnoxious
>>110106394>I hate the new UI, the gradient is obnoxiousJust switch the theme to Ash
Don't. They don't respect you, don't respect them. Switch to a different fork.
>>110103045It took much RAM and crashed my lowspec pc, Waterfox seems tamer but still has profiles. It's way too much bloat.Profiles only cause more bugs like my history disappeared after energy crash and I had to ask an ai how to recover profiles. They have one job, keep it as-is and not add bloat.
>>110102853why is everyone making a big fuss about firefox new design? it looks the same to me
>>110102933You have been able to use multiple profiles in Firefox for over a decade.
>>110102853>users feel as if Blink is becoming the only browser standard left and WebKit is only for ApplefagsChromium is the only browser standard left and Firefox follows it slowly and WebKit even slower. Usually I'd say monopolies are bad but it is WebKit's monopoly on iOS that is the only thing stopping the web from becoming Chromium-only
>>110102853>new UI is actually goodlow quality bait
>>110103299What do you mean? The original SeaMonkey era profile manager works fine with multiple instances.firefox -P secretfurrypornprofileIs this a Windows only problem?
firefox -P secretfurrypornprofile
I want to use Firefox because the icon/mascot is cute unironically
>>110104924Brave is an adblocker in and of itself
>>110103084yes, they switched from xul to manifest v2. the thing that blink is now breaking btw :^)
>>110102853>>AI has accelerated development with record number of Firefox bugs being fixed and 2 week release cycle pushing out those fixes even faster>fixes bug introduced by the AI and rapid development in the first place
>>110103118>changes UI every year>NOOO the 20th time thats just too far
their AI slop update caused my firefox to constantly crash because something in my online profile corrupted so I disabled updates
>>110109413>every yearNO
>>11010941320 is the number of consent
>>110102853I switched to Fox this year, primarily due to its support of Ublock Origin, and I've been very happy with it so far. The only thing that could use some improvement is the Bookmark Manager.
>>110103299it can, you stupid. you can run multiple profile at the same time. if you use only -p, no wonder you can't run.
>>110102853ff is slower by far cpu+gpu high than all chromium browsers when it comes to 4k playback
>>110104904it's a shitbag browser you can't do basic shit on without a massive resource spike and lag
>>110103118>round corners but your 4k playback is still ASS>>110103003No
>>110102853not it's still a slow piece of shit
>>110108627Anon wanted uBO so I gave him uBO, since he's too good for Brave Shields (Waterfox is switching to Brave Shields, btw.)
>>110112459Does this actually matter if running on high mid to top end hardware? Or a Mac even? Like is it actually noticeable
>>110113339>if we can't notice it then it doesn't matterThis way of thinking is why most softwares are shit these days.
>>110113360There's nuance to this. If it's so bad that it's noticeably affecting a modern PC then I care more than if it's loading a webpage a few nanoseconds slower than chromium browsers. That's why I'm asking. If you don't know just say you don't know
>>110102853Not really people are are using and talking about brave browser more in public.
>>110104980>I can't hit CTRL+Shift+B >I don't know how to right click the bar and select Bookmarks Toolbar > Always showYou deserve Chrome.
>>110112451>4k playbackbig deal
Why would you use Firefox instead of Zen?
Because I'm using Waterfox.
>>110103010I'm sure that's true.
>>110102853Yeah whatever. It still memory leaks, breaks pages and doesn't work for many workflows. And on top of that is full of gay.But hey uBO is nice I guess only that YouTube is unusable on ff anyway.
Just found out this exists, is it any good or just a half assed attempt?
>>110102853>new UI is actually goodIs this a joke?It still has the same fundamental design flaws that were introduced over a decades ago.I wouldn't mind too much as I have customized to be tolerable again but these fuckers keep breaking it yearly.
>>110102853Tabs look too round. Me not like.
For me, it's zen browser
>>110102853the forks are better
>>110117876It's good, but needs severe work. There's no official support for webextions plugins so adblocking is almost non-existent. Making native plugins for it is stupidly difficult and even then not all installations support the python extensions if the browser wasn't built with support for this.
>>110102853>new UI is actually goodLol
>thanks tothe answer to this question is almost always 99.99999% a big fat no
>>110118641>LolI also like new ui. fuck flatshit and it's ideological daddy Duarte
Too much purple means trannies are involved. Same goes for games.
>>110118960>fuck flatshitanon... just because it's round as fuck and has whitespacing everywhere doesn't make it not-flatshit. it's still flatshit, but even worse.
>>110119001>doesn't make it not-flatshit.yeah it does, it looks different. can't wait for 3d elements to make comeback.
>>110102853I actually did not like the new UI but I guess I am just getting used to itOnly reason for me to use firefox is for ublock origin and other extensions already configured in it
>>110102853>>Chrome pushing Manifest V3 has pushed users back to FirefoxNot much but that is a good thing if Firefox remains a niche. Google is unlikely to deploy anything just to block Firefox users from ads
>>110120180
>>110120224I don't trust other browsers can support everything firefox can that I am using with it
>>110120308It's all Firefox, anon. That's the point.
>latest update broke "save image as"cool vibecoding niggers
>>110118960>I also like new ui.I like it too. The default themes are mostly too bright but there's a few that remove the gradient so I'm happy.
>>110117876It's bad.
>>110120308They're trannyfox forks. They disable Mozilla's garbage so you don't have to.
>>110120415the fuck did you just say, timmy
>>110122668>Splatoon posting
>>110104964>but for some reason they are separate and have their own sets of profiles.Because the old profile manager wasn't accessible to retards that didn't even know Firefox had profiles so they're making a new version without disturbing the existing one.
