Starting in Firefox 138, Mozilla started gating Firefox Labs features behind data collection.

Mozilla had announced that some new Firefox features would be released via Firefox Labs.

It is now a few hours since I posted, and there is reason to celebrate – Mozilla is updating Firefox Labs to let people access features without needing to enable data collection.

Feel like Everytime it's brought up people mention missing features or broken sites. I've been meaning to try it but someone gets brought up every time. Stuff I usually like.

Like tabs across devices, does that work?

Am I misremembering, but it doesn't do updates right? Like you have to manually go get them? Which I'm likely to forget forever...
