Ask HN: How do you feel about the current state of Firefox for Android?

6 点作者 nathan_phoenix超过 3 年前
I believe in Mozilla&#x27;s mission of keeping the web open and trying to use Firefox as much as possible, but it&#x27;s hard... Especially on Android, where it misses some basic features like adjusting font size per site and clearing cookies and data per site. Plus the only advantage they had over mobile chrome, namely add-ons, they crippled into oblivion. It&#x27;s kind of funny, by trying to protect the avarage Joe from excessive battery drain they basically made Firefox for Android irrelevant. Advanced users have no more reasons to stay when they can just get Bromite, both a faster and feature richer (built-in ad blocking) FOSS browser, and normal users never even used Firefox because they don&#x27;t even change their wallpaper let alone their browser...<p>I really want Mozilla and Firefox to succed, but my hope keeps shrinking. What do you think?

I use it, and it&#x27;s great that I can install extensions like uBlock Origin and HTTPS Everywhere on it. Some other extensions don&#x27;t work like a useragent spoofer, which I badly need since the useragent of Firefox on Android is unique and I want to blend in. Also not being able to turn on `resistFingerprinting:true` in about:config is annoying, since you can&#x27;t access about:config in the Firefox Android browser.<p>Other than that it&#x27;s great. I have set the browser to wipe history, cache &amp; cookies every-time I press &#x27;Quit&#x27;, which stops cookies tracking you as you browse, which is an excellent feature, similar to how Firefox Focus nukes everything when you close the app.

Good, except the offline cold starting off a PWA isn&#x27;t possible yet
