  • Note that since I don’t use Firefox some of these may actually be available, but I don’t know about them.

    • Mouse gestures.
    • A status bar that stays on screen.
    • The ability to select part of a link’s text.
    • Tab stacking.
    • Tab tiling.
    • Opening a link in either a foreground or background tab. This is available as a toggle in the settings only.
    • Ad block.
    • Spatial navigation.
    • Customisable keyboard shortcuts for pretty much everything.

    These are the ones that matter to me, there are more that I don’t personally use.



  • Ever since the first release, I’ve tried Firefox a few times. Each time I was left with a feeling of needing dozens of extensions to get it up to par with the browser I was using at the time (mainly Opera and now Vivaldi). The extensions I found were never customisable enough, and would often break and/or be abandoned after a while.

    Don’t get me wrong: Chrome, IE, Edge, and Safari are worse - each time I used them I got the urge to throw my computer out the window after just a few minutes. But Firefox is just not customisable enough to my liking, and extension are IMO not the answer.
