Browser Mozilla Firefox

Este Firefox está cada vez mais um mamão fora de controlo. O que vale é que a concorrência não anda muito melhor nesse aspecto, e ajuda já usar o Firefox faz umas dezenas de anos caso contrário, já lhe tinha dito adeus.
 
Este Firefox está cada vez mais um mamão fora de controlo. O que vale é que a concorrência não anda muito melhor nesse aspecto, e ajuda já usar o Firefox faz umas dezenas de anos caso contrário, já lhe tinha dito adeus.
Pois eu também penso um pouco assim, se não fosse utilizador quase desde o inicio já tinha desistido, mas estou sempre a cada versão à espera que a situação melhore.
 
Versão 79.0 já está disponível pela via tradicional.

Version 79.0, first offered to Release channel users on July 28, 2020
We'd like to extend a special thank you to all of the new Mozillians who contributed to this release of Firefox.

New
  • We’ve rolled out WebRender to more Windows users with Intel and AMD GPUs, bringing improved graphics performance to an even larger audience.

  • Firefox users in Germany will now see more Pocket recommendations in their new tab featuring some of the best stories on the web. If you don’t see them, you can turn on Pocket articles in your new tab by following these steps.
Fixed
  • Various security fixes.

  • Several crashes while using a screen reader were fixed, including a frequently encountered crash when using the JAWS screen reader.

  • Firefox Developer Tools received significant fixes allowing screen reader users to benefit from some of the tools that were previously inaccessible.

  • SVG title and desc elements (labels and descriptions) are now correctly exposed to assistive technology products such as screen readers.
Enterprise
  • A number of bug fixes and new policies have been implemented in the latest version of Firefox. You can see more details in the Firefox for Enterprise 79 Release Notes.

  • Updates to the password policy allow admins to require a primary password (formerly called master password. Previously the policy could disable the primary password but not force a primary password. Users required to use a primary password will only be asked to create a primary password the first time they try to save a password.
Developer
  • Developer Information
  • Newly added asynchronous call stacks let developers trace their async code through events, timeouts, and promises. The async execution chains are shown in the Debugger’s call stack, but also for stack traces in Console errors and Network initiators.

  • Erroneous network responses with 4xx/5xx status codes display as errors in the Console, making it easy to understand them in the context of related logs. The request/response details can be expanded or resent for quick debugging.

  • JavaScript errors are now visible not only in the Console, but also in the Debugger. The relevant line of code will be highlighted and display error details on hover.

  • Opening SCSS and CSS-in-JS sources from the Inspector now works more reliably thanks to improved source map handling across all panels.

  • Inspecting accessibility properties from the browser context menu is now available to all users by default.

Alguém sabe como definir os favoritos como homepage em Android? Com esta última atualização mudaram completamente a interface e as opções.
 
Se estavas a usar a versão beta, suponho que não tenhas notado diferença. Para quem estava na versão estável (68.11.0), a interface mudou completamente, assim como as opções disponíveis. Nomeadamente, não consigo definir o que quero como homepage.
 
Já fui buscar o apk da 68.11 e desliguei o auto update na store.
Enquanto não corrigirem o interface não posso fazer update.
A store já está cheia de reviews de 1 estrela...
 
Agora nem consigo ter o FF aberto mais que 30 minutos que começa uma lentidão desmesurada. No chat do FB por exemplo, escrevo alguma coisa só lá aparece 2 segundos depois. Isto está com uma performance simplesmente ridícula.
 
Mas alguma razão em particular ser do Facebook? Mas se é dele, menos mal. Estou a ver então que tenho que abrir o messenger numa tab à parte, para não me enervar muito com aquilo. Andam lá com as tretas do novo layout e têm o resto todo minado.

Detesto o novo UI do Firefox para Android. Parece que mudaram a barra de pesquisa/endereço para a parte inferior do ecrã, só porque sim, ou por rebeldia. Não duvido que tenham feito muitas alterações/melhorias under the hood, mas esta é a mais visível e irritante.
 
Eu gosto da barra na parte inferior mas para quem não gosta tem sempre a possibilidade de trocar para a parte superior do ecrã.
