@emacsen Well, there is also the fact that #Firefox is not #FreeSoftware, this is why #GNU #IceCat exists, see https://directory.fsf.org/wiki/Gnuzilla .

Así luce #Fenix, el nuevo navegador de #Mozilla para reemplazar #Firefox en #Android
Si usas Firefox en Android habrás notado que a diferencia del escritorio, la versión móvil hace tiempo que no recibe ninguna novedad interesante. Para ello tendrás que esperar al lanzamiento de "Fenix", una nueva versión del navegador de la que ahora podemos ver algunas imágenes. Imágenes que además nos muestran un nuevo logo de Firefox.
Estás imágenes no son finales sino que representan la dirección que está tomando el proyecto hasta ahora. Menús, barras de direcciones, acceso rápido, marcadores, pantalla de inicio y demás elementos tienen un rediseño y reajuste significativo que luce bastante bien. Y ese nuevo logo ni siquiera está entre aquellas opciones que Mozilla presentó a mediados de año preguntando la opinión de la comunidad.

@theru @catalina Awesome! Next step is to replace #Tux from #Linux with #Freedo from #Linux-libre (or just paint the first in light blue, adding a brush and towel); and #Firefox with #GNU #IceCat. I suggested so because #Linux and #Firefox are not #FreeSoftware.

@how Some #Mozilla products, such as #Firefox, are still non-free, at least according to the last evaluation made by https://directory.fsf.org/ and https://www.gnu.org/s/icecat . #IceCat @fsf

@Wolf480pl @ck @aral
and in the end you need to #trust the browser anyway, don't you? i mean, how can you make sure they are not collecting all the data in the background, whether or not you enabled sync..?that's why i'm not using #chrome - they are for sure collecting everything there is to collect...
for #firefox i'm at least not sure ;-)
i'd still recommend to #questionthat individually.

@mase it is supposed to work on #android, but i can't confirm that...
i'm using #orfox and #fossbrowser, which however do not support sync.
there is no pure #firefox in the @fdroidorg repository (and #google #play #store is not an option). just tried #icecat but cannot sign in to sync (probably related to https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?50960) -

@nev #cool, didn't know that! can it #sync out of the box? does it only sync with other #epiphany instances, or also with #firefox instances?
ah you know what... hold my #beer, i'll give it a try! :doomguy: -

just setup a private #firefox #sync server. pretty straight forward... :firefox:
1. build a #docker image from https://github.com/mozilla-services/syncserver
2. #deploy it somewhere
3. configure identity.sync.tokenserver.uri in #about:config to point to your new location
4. login at `about:preferences#sync` (you still need a #mozilla account, unless you also run a private account server)
5. sync and check about:sync-log for #error|s -

#Mozilla, please don't do this. We don't want this. It might not be an "ad" but it makes you look bad nonetheless. Especially now given that #Firefox is the only non-Chromium browser out there, you need not alienate your user base.
Here's hoping this gets boosted enough. 😞

#Librefox, una modificación de #Firefox con mejoras en #privacidad y #seguridad
2018 ha sido un año donde la máxima de "la privacidad es una ilusión" ha cobrado más sentido que nunca, por la cantidad de brechas de seguridad de las que se ha informado y por los escándalos de uso de datos que compañías como Facebook han protagonizado. Aun así, no parece ser un asunto que preocupe mucho a la mayoría de usuarios (algo contrastable viendo las contraseñas más usadas del año), pero para aquellos que sí lo hagan, creaciones como Librefox son una gran ayuda.
Librefox es un proyecto de código abierto basado en Firefox destinado a aquellos para que las medidas de seguridad de las últimas versiones de lo último de Mozilla no son suficientes. Firefox se puede configurar y personalizar para lograr prácticamente el mismo grado de protección que ofrece su alternativa, pero la comodidad que Librefox ofrece por defecto no es posible igualarla para usuarios no tan avanzados.

With the removal of #RSS features from #firefox, I was left very disappointed. How can #mozilla backslide on the essential bits of the open web by removing support.
However, @kensanata has, yet again, saved the day by making a lovely bookmark that finds the RSS feeds for pages!
Here is a little holiday present from Alex, passed on by me. Thank you, good Sir!!

Disabling Pocket in Firefox should not require going to about:config and clicking past a warning that would scare off non-technical users.

@beto
#thanks for the hint! just disabled it by setting #mousewheel.with_control.action to 0 in #about:config :verified:
(0 means "Do nothing", 1 means "Scroll contents", 2 means "Go back or forward in the history", 3 means "Zoom in or out the contents")https://wiki.mozilla.org/Gecko:Mouse_Wheel_Scrolling
This should do the trick for me, as I somehow only experience this problem in #firefox..!? :firefox:
