Firefox Mobile needs Tab Grouping tho.
There are some addons that do that. That's the good thing about Firefox. Very customisable.
Really, for mobile? Because containers aren't available for Android.
Ah yeah not sure if they're available for mobile, I meant desktop
No, I'm afraid those are just elite bookmarks kept on your home screen.
Yes, yes, and yes.😅 There is no tab management besides the ability to move them around on the tab UI page. No grouping, no labeling. I open a LOT of tabs. It's really been hampering my ff experience. I'll have to think about Firefox nightly and see how much of a hassle it'll be.
ffupdater gives you access to cool chrome forks, I assume at least one of them will continue to support uBlock Origin going forward.
Until Google pulls the payment they do to have it as default search engine and it goes to hell
