Firefox is a solid browser, and it seems to have been finally addressing its security holes. The AI killswitch is a good feature for those of us who do not like the AI features. UBlock Origin is good as always. I don't default to it these days for security reasons, however from a customizability standpoint it's absolutely unmatched next to something like Zen.
Used Firefox since the start, but I’m dumping it for Waterfox. The last update screwed up web sites I use, and I'm tied of configuring it to remove the search in the Address bar, which after that last update I’ve failed miserably to accomplish. Considering they are supposed to pride themselves on listening to users and making it easy for anyone to configure, I see the opposite happening. From 5 down to 3.
This browser has eaten all of my computers resources even when it has just a blank page, I tested it with just a blank page and it ate 3GB of RAM. I moved to Libre Wolf and websites load in 10ms rather than 10 seconds, REDICULOUS. I am wildly surprised how much better my browsing it WITHOUT this browser.
I like this app because OceanHero supports FireFox for Linux. I also like the fact that there is an alternative to Pie Adblock. It is known as UBlock Origin. UBlock Origin is better that Pie Adblock because it lets you block anything. Even YouTube Movies.
Unfortunately as of 25th of March 2026 the version 148 does not support twitch. Browser works fine otherwise.
Firefox or derivatives are the only correct default choice for Linux users since it aligns with our values. The program itself is fast, customizable, offers a great extension ecosystem and most importantly protects privacy. Stability has been awesome over the years, even with hundreds of open tabs.
Updated now can't save.deb files. AI fuctions and all the account stuff its trash. Installing a stock verion because the version that ships with mint is trash
Have added AI functions and more tracking, making the browser toxic and useless.
Like many pieces of software and hardware lately, Firefox is getting worse, going stir crazy with AI. It's been happening for a while, and they changed CEOs recently, but... they're doubling down on it. Please look into alternative browsers... ie Vivaldi (chromium), or Zen, Librewolf, and Waterfox (Firefox forks). (Make sure to do your own research).
Added opt-out AI features, that by default share your navigation data with an AI system without any previous request to the user. And you find out thanks to a navigation-covering popup. Also, deactivating it from the popup is kind of offuscated. Pure trash, will never ever trust a Mozilla product ever again.
Still one of my favourite browsers. And in 2025 one of the few not based on Chromium.
I remember using Firefox with Firebug back in 2008/09 for basic web developer tasks. It's my favorite web browser since the Web 2.0 era.
Very happy. I have been using it for years without issues. With just a few recommended extensions installed and another search provider it fits my daily surfing needs. :)
I have been using Firefox for many years and continue to love it. It works great and has so many privacy features and extensions.
the default browser for most linux distros. what can i say? i used to like this more. but after their new privacy policy, they're now just the browser i use streaming and job application stuff because netflix doesn't work in waterfox anymore. still better than chromium based browsers tho
Bester OpenSource-Browser, allerdings benötigt er leichte Anpassungen, damit das mit dem Tempo und Datenschutz besser wird. Mit uBlock Origin & nuMatrix wird er noch besser. Zur Not gibts Libre Wolf.
Works out of the box in LMDE6, is easy customizable, does everything a modern browser should do and is very intuitive. Never had any crashes. Used it for streaming, downloading pictures, online-shopping, normal browsing. There are a lot of Add-Ons(Extensions) available. Personally I use DarkReader and Ecosia. The security options are good and seem to work.
Recent updates to the browser has caused it to stop working. How long is it going to take to get a fix from Firefox?The browser has just stopped responding to any input. Just the act of running the program causes it to hang up or freeze.
