    I see, yeah that makes sense. Especially because mobile firefox really wasn’t that good as a normal browser anyway.

        No idea why I got downvoted but I’ve been using it on my phone since I switched from iOS to android in 2014.

        And yes I also very welcome that they finally let you install extensions.

      Any browser without adblock is utter crap. So Firefox with uBlock Origin has been doing great for me. Try the Firefox Beta version, it somehow runs a lot better than stable.

      There are features, like swiping the url bar to switch tabs, that are missing on the pre installed Chrome, but the firefox has them. Chrome has nothing to offer over firefox, besides your data collection

        I can swipe the URL bar on Chrome to switch tabs, what do you mean?

          Ah, seems like it works now, it has been a while since I’ve used it. But it still doesn’t have an option for moving the url bar to the bottom of the screen and blocking trackers.

            As I recall, Chrome got it first, and I was waiting for a long while for Firefox to add it too.

            But yeah, bar at the bottom is where it’s at.
