#firefoxmobile

Pff, it's fine, I didn't want to be able to read or tap the address bar anyway!

But seriously...does no one ever beta-test such things? Can I please get a menu to move/hide things in Firefox for Android so not everything is squeezed so tightly? 😭

At least I'm not the only one to complain: connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/r

Screenshot of Firefox for Androids address bar. On the left is the home button, inside the bar is the reader mode, translate button and share button, on the right the tab menu and the settings menu.

Due to the three buttons within the address bar, only the first six letters of the URL, "letterb" are visible and only leave a tiny space to tap into the bar.

@fschaap @netopwibby yeah, but why is it in the drawer (besides #FirefoxOS being let to die prematurely)...

We may be aware of Firefox OS' existance in the past but it was never even tried to be sold anywhere to any effect.

  • And believe me, both @fuchsiii and I tried to get our hands on any device that came with it and I've never heard of the #ZTE Open C before, much less any device being sold in #Germany which is absolutely flabberghasting to me given that in the late 2000s and early 2010s #Mozilla #Firefox was the dominant #Browser in Germany and thus had the best chance to leverage that customer base with good integrations like #MozillaPocket / #FirefoxPocket.

I still love #Fennec aka. #FirefoxMobile but I'm still mad at @Mozilla for not even trying to sell me a device, cuz I was at the time literally shouting: "#ShutUpAndTakeMyMoney!" and searched the (back then 4) MNOs' and their (half a dozen) MVNOs' stores (both retail and online) and never came across a Firefox OS device.

  • Same with (online) electronics retailers: NONE of them even had a single listing when I looked for those.

Which reminds me of the (coined by me term) "#RedBlueIndex" [named after the parent company that owns both #Saturn and #MediaMarkt, the two biggest, spechalized electronics retailers]:

  • If you can't find a product on shelf at Saturn/MediaMarkt, it doesn't exist in the minds and conciousness of the average #consumers!

Fucking called it LOL; they removed it again :'(

#Mozilla giveth and #Mozilla taketh away.

Why, oh why can't we actually have a sensible UX on a mobile browser?

I just do not get it.

Interessant. Wollte gerade #Briefwahlunterlagen mit QR-Code beantragen, ging mit #firefoxmobile nicht. Auch nicht auf IOS. Mit dem #bravebrowser lief es aber.

Komisch, es wird bundesweit benutzt. Testen die das nicht richtig?

Si ca peut servir à quelques uns, à tester #FirefoxMobile à la place de #Chrome

@KaitlynEthylia really?

#Protip: use @torproject / #TorBrowser or @mozilla / #FirefoxMobile and set it to "Desktop Mode"...

Also #FuckGoogle because they enshittified #GoogleMaps with "#AI hallucinations" constantly misleading people with made-up instead of correct navigation!

Remember: #AllGAFAMsAreBad / #AllGAFAMsAreEvil and @openstreetmap / #OSM exists woth way better and more accurate maps anyway...

  • there is no button in #firefoxmobile that allows me to remove all saved passwords. Why? There should be a dialog overtly asking whether it should do so when logging out of sync!
  • It is not possible to log out of a matrix session in #nheko when offline.#security

Why decided that it would be a good idea to remove the ability to open local HTML files on #firefoxmobile and where do they live.

I do need a better phone with more memory, I grant that, but I also need a browser that doesn't fail spectacularly when it has a hiccup, with no indication or visible attempt at recovery or even acknowledgement it screwed up. #firefox #firefoxmobile #mozilla #browser

If you're annoyed by me talking about this, imagine how I feel. The cleaning crew randomly decides my office desk needs a good scrubby and scoops everything off into the trash. I have to dig back through and try to remember which things I'm missing and from what piles, working from the top of the trash pile down, and I'm straight-up going to miss time-sensitive things because of this. #firefox #firefoxmobile #mozilla #browser

Not even two weeks later. "Hey, you sure have a bunch of background tabs open." "Yeah but they're just optionally cached files, URLs and thumbnails to you, right? You aren't actively running these tabs unless I click on them that session, so it shouldn't be hard for you, right? But I'll close some. Hey, where did they all go, Firefox Mobile?" "I forgor again." #firefox #firefoxmobile #mozilla #browser #mobile

@astrid 4 instances of #FirefoxMobile sounds #based...

I know it's something I've grumbled about before. But it still keeps happening. I'm not even sure what triggers it. Firefox Mobile just has an oopsy loading the tabs one day and silently dumps the lot of them. Did I shut it down wrong? Did I interrupt it loading? Hard to say. I'm just left staring at a 0 (or a 1 if I opened a link externally). #firefox #firefoxmobile #browser #software

"I probably can uninstall Vivaldi, Firefox Mobile hasn't had any big issues for a while."
(opens Firefox Mobile, it's lost my tabs with no easy way to restore once again) "Ah. Irony."

opera gx added mods to mobile so i was like okay let's see what this is
turns out they disabled all the cool stuff on mobile, turning it into a glorified theme store
i thought this was lame, so against my better judgement, i've
ported GX Mods to Android.
i wouldn't recommend using background music as it's extremely RAM hungry, but browser and keyboard sounds are kinda fun to have!! okay thats all thanks bye

opera gx for mobile saying that all the actually cool bits of modding are only available on PC. so it's just a glorified theme store on gx mobileGX mods settings page as viewed on mobile phonesGX.store on mobile showing GXM running
