Mozilla CEO quits, org pivots, but what about Firefox?
(www.theregister.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
My only question is, why do so few people use Firefox?
Most internet usage is mobile and people use whatever's preinstalled on their phone because it just works is my guess.
I see, yeah that makes sense. Especially because mobile firefox really wasn't that good as a normal browser anyway.
There are features, like swiping the url bar to switch tabs, that are missing on the pre installed Chrome, but the firefox has them. Chrome has nothing to offer over firefox, besides your data collection
I can swipe the URL bar on Chrome to switch tabs, what do you mean?
Ah, seems like it works now, it has been a while since I've used it. But it still doesn't have an option for moving the url bar to the bottom of the screen and blocking trackers.
As I recall, Chrome got it first, and I was waiting for a long while for Firefox to add it too.
But yeah, bar at the bottom is where it's at.
