Is there a reason why? Less funding? Web devs don't make the pages Firefox friendly? Since the user base is smaller, they just don't care?

Tighter security, better blocking of malicious tracking code, etc.

This was the issue. I set up the cookie protection to strict and it was breaking sites. Once I put it back to standard protection, the sites started working fine.

Ohhhh yep that’ll do it lol. If you don’t let them spy on you lots of websites don’t work right 😂 (this is not an endorsement of spying)

Seems like you’re just trying to get something to be indexed by crawlers to make seem FF bad since you haven’t responded to any comments on any of the posts you’ve made about this topic.

What errors are you talking about? If you don’t give an answer then I’m just going to assume you’re making shit up.

I think you're right, just saw another post with the same exact title and body, but in another community and from another user

Don't word your posts as if there's something absolute "Firefox gets more errors than Chrome", when it's not. You are encountering an issue, post about it like it's an issue. "Why are most sites breaking for me in FF but not Chrome".

One leads someone to believe something is true globally. The other is a personal issue that people are going to help you with.

What sort of error? Ive had no crashes or bugs since I started using it in the early days.
