Not to mention the Firefox app on Android allows add-ons so you can use Ublock Origin on it too.
Firefox nightly and beta allows full fledged desktop extensions as well
alright now put on the ears and install Arch
Already have, and my Lemmy instance is iusearchlinux.fyi
Reject Manifest V3, return to fox browser.
i know this is a joke, but: firefox is still implementing manifest v3. the difference is that they're keeping WebRequest
Yes, but they will keep supporting MV2 "for the foreseeable future", which means that all old extensions should keep working. It is going to be somewhat scary when they decide to remove MV2 support, but for now we are good.
IIRC they said that they will keep MV2 until they are able to make the extensions work without MV2
Firefox mobile with uBlock origin is a fucking godsend, the mobile web is nigh unusable without it because of ads.
Whenever I'm watching someone else use a browser and I see how many ads there are, I realize how great UBlock is.
It's also part of why I don't use apps for things like YouTube: I don't have to deal with ads if I just access the site like normal via Firefox.
If you want to put in a little effort: Youtube Revanced is the official Youtube app without ads

I found Firefox WAY before i found Lemmy, no Chrome on my machines, UBlock Origin, Noscript, Facebook Container, Video Downloadhelper, Firefox lets one retake control
If you like Facebook containers, try the Firefox Container Tabs extension.
Librewolf is great; ngl it feels like vanilla Firefox has gotten too comfortable pushing sponsored content as of late
Tbf Mozilla needs money to keep doing good work, and I don't mind "paying" for Firefox like that when the only alternatives are "paying" by letting Google track and sell my personal data.

I wuv firefox :3
Already using FireFox. It's nice that it comes preinstalled on most Linux distros too.
Jokes on those that went shiny and chromium, I never left Firefox.
Bless the gecko! Gecko is love, gecko is lyfe.
I'm on Vivaldi AFTER Firefox. Am I a pos-furry?
Is Chromium
I love my little purple unstable fox 😀
cause I'm already on firefox silly
LibreWolf is the best browser
I used to use Firefox but half the websites I visted were broken on it. Companies don't make their websites compatible with it anymore which really sucks. If Chrome kills adblocker, I'll switch back, but it's just annoying when you get to the middle of a transaction and the site stops working because the devs were too lazy to test on anything but Chrome.
What kinds of websites are you using? Been using Firefox my whole life, and the only instances I can remember of stuff not working on it are the web version of Microsoft Teams (Which works now), one proctoring site which required Opera, and some website where you could create music from samples that for some reason required Chrome.
