Except that FF is also getting the feature - according to their timeline around Q4 20 - Q1 21.

As many have pointed out, Mozilla updated your glitchy and slow browser with a newer and faster one that unfortunately still isn't at feature parity. They didn't remove the feature in the sense that they abandoned it, it was simply a regression that came with an update they considered more important. I agree it was way too soon to push Fenix to stable users, but switching to fancy Chrome just because of one FF regression that will be fixed seems a bit much.



I agree with you, hence why I disable the auto update for my Firefox app.

The blessed extensions strategy is one I would have avoided.

I don't need Mozilla to make my decisions for me.
