I wanted to throw that new Firefox out the window. But after some tweaks (ok, many tweaks!) you can get used to it. It is still better than Chrome/Chromium.

I can’t really live without those, and I get all of these in an appropriately extended Firefox.

I do not care about browser start-up time or performance otherwise. When I really need performance, I just launch a short-lived Chromium instance for the page that does.

This is like using Windows.

I use firefox exactly because it isn’t like Chrome, but now it is clearly just like Chrome?! And even session restore doesn’t work anymore! Multiple extensions that I use seem to be somehow crippled? What the fuck?
