I’ve just been looking for a replacement for Firefox Beta.

      I couldn’t download files from a site I use because they apparently remove the referral information from requests even when you’re navigating inside the same site (doesn’t bring much privacy because anyone looking at the logs of that site can see the same IP moving from one page to the other).

      Still a good browser, but like other projects that try to bring the Tor Browser changes to the normal web, it can break a few things.

    I find Kiwi Browser essential. It’s one of the only ones that you can install chrome extensions onto.

        I believe that’s an outdated Github link. The project moved here with releases here. The search engine stuff has always seemed like a non-issue to me. I run both Fennec and Kiwi but the latter gives me a true black UI and support for fully side-loaded addons (not just those already on the Firefox website).

      Mostly can’t sign in to lemmy.world for some reason but otherwise I’d some change for a bit.

        I don’t believe that’s a Firefox issue, unless it’s a problem specifically with the beta.

    Using Kiwi because it supports Twitter control panel and old reddit redirect extensions.

        Well. Thanks for the info. Uninstalling

        Edit: I added few add-ons to my collection.but I’m unable to add it to my Android. What could be the issue?

            Here’s what I did:

            • created a new collection and added few addons
            • copied the collection id from the URL
            • opened Firefox nightly and enabled custom collection menu
            • input the collection id
            • Firefox quits
            • when I open Firefox and click on Add-ons, there were no add-ons and there was an error that “Failed to query Add-ons”

            edit: added both collection id and the collection name as it appears on the URL. it is working now. Thank you for your help! :)

              I’m getting this same error. Added the collection ID and the name where?

                  It wasn’t at ALL clear to me that this entire process takes place in two DIFFERENT Firefoxes: one on a desktop or laptop install and THEN on your android device!! Maybe I read thru the instructions too fast (real men don’t read instructions 😉 ) but they all seem to say “…open Firefox…” without being clear WHICH Firefox they’re referring to.

                  I’ve now spent close to 3 hours trying to get 3 extensions to work/load properly into Fennec on the Android… Back to Kiwi! “It just works…” 😡

    Even though I’m quite eager to try new softwares, for browser I usually return back to Firefox or brave browser.

    Only recently when I tried Vivaldi browser, I don’t feel the urge to return to Firefox/brave.
