No lie most of those features sound like a bad idea.

Not all of them, there were a couple that were really appealing. I would especially love the ability to get metrics and data on sites and trackers I’ve blocked in a nice dashboard.

No idea, I assume they at least list the numbers. But I want some pretty charts…

Yes, same with dark mode. “Dark background light text” works great and locally so sites cannot track you depending on your dark mode preference.

But integration into FF sounds good?

I’d love to be able to snyc everything (all settings, including user.js, etc.; all extensions and all of their configuration; all visual changes, including userChrome.css and additional files; all website configurations, including all cookies). Basically a 1:! copy of the user profile directory.

This won’t happen, though.

Keyboard operated control and site specific extension were appealing to me

  • Twice as fast as your current browser
  • Tools to monitor and manage browser power, battery, and memory usage
  • Ability to customize your privacy, permissions, accessibility, and display settings on a site-by-site basis

Pick one that you want the most and one that you want the least.

I want all 3 though…

This survey is annoying.

Or they are trying to create a feasible dev pipeline based on user feedback.

I completely understand that. I just find them equally important and wish I didn’t have to rank them.

I would’ve preferred all questions listed at once and letting me rank them from most desired to least desired.

Heh, that’s software engineering in a nutshell. Everything’s important but you still have to pick the most important to know what to work on.

What a dogshit survey, there were maybe 3-4 thigs I’d actually be interested in (vertical tabs, better sync, better search engine management) It’s built to confirm some manager’s bias 1000% and push AI slop, which will just end up wasting Mozilla’s limited funding. Also loved the “Pocket good!” Angle some of the pages forced you into as well.

Crappy choices. One basically is forced to like a third of the ideas presented, even though 90% is garbage. And even worse, sometimes they hand you not just one, but two or three shit sandwiches on a page, and you can only dislike one, AND you actually have to like one to proceed.

And at the end an unskippable question I’m not going to answer, so I closed the tab.

Yeah, what kind of bullshit survey format was that? I guess that format has its uses, but the way Mozilla is using it here is awful, awful, awful. I didn’t finish it. What happened to the 1 to 5 stars, points or whatevs?

It’s harder to remember that Mozilla is the champion for good and pure Internet when their survey seems to look so plasticky corporate that it could have come from a Republican.

And also when they killed their own namesake product because it was too hard.
