IMHO it’s definetly a hard break with the past design.
But it looks more mature and not as ‘shy’.

    • Yes, FFA’s autopick for the home screen shortcuts is terrible, but easily circumvented by manually pinning my preferred sites.
    • I never experienced this and I pass a radio hole daily. Even if, killing Firefox should be enough instead of a full reboot.
    • about:config is available in Nightlies and the Fennec/Ironfox forks.
    • FFA has this wallpaper feature for years.

      • The manually pinned literally sink somewhere behind the repeatedly pinned links from other sites, so manually is pointless. • If “force stop” and then start FFA were enough, I wouldn’t mention phone reboot. • Never heard of those but I’ll definitely try them. Thanks for the info. • If it does, I’never found it in the settings. Or, for whatever reason, it doesn’t appear on Xiaomi phones.

      Reading Hadriscus’ comment below ours from 2 weeks ago, looks like the reason I abandoned the desktop FF (and went for a fork) has been moved to FFA - enorcing their view on what’s best for the user without giving the user the option to revert what they have done. Do I have to say this behavior which famous corp. reminds me of or will Mozilla think of it themselves?
