Firefox

Firefox for Android has been a disappointment in the mobile browser world for a while now. Let's go through the many reasons why Firefox for Android just isn't measuring up:

1. Android's security measures are lackluster. It's like leaving a toddler to guard a candy store - not very effective.
2. Certificate Issues: Firefox for Android is like a friend who never gives you the full scoop. While Chrome reveals all the details about a website's security certificates, Firefox leaves users in the dark.
3. Engine Rewrite Fail: Firefox for Android attempted to one-up Chrome by rewriting their engine, but the result was a flop bigger than my last cake-baking attempt.
4. No Mute Tab Option: Firefox for Android doesn't offer any way to mute tabs, a feature that Chrome has had built-in for ages.
5. Limited Extension Support: Firefox for Android is trying to lure users away from Chrome by supporting 450 extensions, but browsers like Yandex, Samsung Internet, and Kiwi have offered full extension support for years. Firefox is late to the party, and their limited selection might not be enough to sway users who value extensive customization.
6. Unclear Address Bar Search: When you search in the address bar of Firefox for Android, only the search term is displayed, making it difficult to ascertain if the URL is legitimate or not.
7. Persistent Full-Screen Bug: The full-screen bug (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1797340) has been hanging around Firefox for Android for years, and they're slower than a sloth when it comes to fixing it.
8. Lackluster Design: Firefox for Android's design is like a cheap knock-off of a premium product.
9. Analytics Overload: Firefox for Android has both Google and Firefox Analytics baked in. Talk about bloatware.
10. Compatibility Issues: Firefox for Android breaks more sites than a bull in a china shop, Compatibility is not its strong suit.
11. Bookmark Management Troubles: Firefox for Android's limitations on editing bookmarks are frustrating. Unlike other browsers, it doesn't allow users to edit bookmarks while searching, making the process cumbersome and inefficient. Although it lets you select multiple bookmarks, the only available option is to delete them - other options mysteriously vanish. Furthermore, the inability to change the position of bookmarks makes organizing your favorites a tedious task. These limitations hinder the overall user experience and leave Firefox for Android lagging behind its competitors in terms of bookmark management.
12. Limited Customization: Firefox for Android claims to be "customizable," but it doesn't offer any significant customization options that Chrome doesn't already have. While Firefox does provide some basic customization features, such as enabling or disabling the shortcuts and jump back in features on the homepage, these options are also available in Chrome. In fact, Chrome offers additional customization features like moving the search bar to the bottom, adding widgets to the home screen, and a dark mode. Thus, Firefox for Android falls short in terms of offering anything truly unique or groundbreaking in the realm of customization.
13. The home button located near the address bar is a persistent eyesore, refusing to disappear even when you want it to. This inflexibility contradicts Firefox for Android's claim of being "customizable," leaving users frustrated and disappointed.
14. No Tab Groups: Firefox for Android is stuck in the past, with no option for tab groups.
15. View Lists of All Websites: Firefox for Android lacks a feature that allows users to easily view lists of all websites saved, cached, or cookie-stored on their device. This can be inconvenient for users who want to manage their online content effectively. The absence of this feature may make Firefox less appealing to users who prefer browsers with more comprehensive options for data access and control.
16. No Split-Screen UI: Want to use Firefox while doing something else simultaneously? Unfortunately, you can't because the UI won't adapt properly to a split-screen mode.
17. No "New Window" Feature: Unlike Chrome, Firefox for Android doesn't have the "New Window" feature that allows users to open a new instance of the browser while using another app. In Chrome, you can access this by opening the menu (the "hamburger" icon) and selecting "New Window," which will open a second Chrome window. Even if Firefox had this feature, its UI issues would likely prevent you from accessing it, as the UI would be outside the reachable area in a split-screen mode.
18. Outdated Tablet UI: Don't expect a modern tablet UI from Firefox for Android - it's still living in the 2000s.
19. Poor WebAssembly Support: Firefox for Android struggles with WebAssembly, leading to more issues than solutions.
20. Lack of Complete Video Format Support: Firefox for Android doesn't support all video formats, leaving users frustrated and searching for alternative browsers.
21. No Offline Dino Game: Firefox for Android takes itself too seriously to include a fun offline game like Chrome's Dino game.
22. Unreliable Cached Pages: Firefox for Android's cached pages are about as reliable as a broken compass. You're better off using smoke signals.
23. Bloated and Slow: Firefox for Android is more bloated than Chrome, making it slower and less efficient.
24. All Talk, No Action: Firefox for Android is like a friend who always promises to do better, but never follows through.
25. Clumsy Performance: Firefox for Android is like a clumsy waiter - always dropping the ball. Stick with Chrome, folks. It may not be perfect, but at least it won't leave you hanging.

Some Firefox fans are attempting to manipulate me into developing features myself, so they can benefit from my work and free time. They seem unwilling to contribute or offer support, and expect others to do all the work for them. It's disappointing that they can barely type a few words before complaining about fatigue, yet they expect others to dedicate their time and effort to developing features for their benefit.
