I'll start: Opening new tabs all the way to the right or bottom, rather than next to the current tab. Its especially disorienting on vertical tabs, I lose track of which (I changed the setting but its still annoying on blank Firefox profiles).

The fact you can't install local extensions without them being removed when you restart

[–] moonpiedumplings@programming.dev 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Hmmm. Are you sure?

I have installed extensions from one furefox profile, directly to another, referencing the stored xpi file, without them getting removed.

Is it unsigned extensions that get removed?

[–] Mubelotix@jlai.lu 1 points 1 month ago

Yes, unsigned extensions. To get a xpi you have to go through their online process

Webgpu is off by default. But i guess thats cause its experimental?

browser.compactmode.show false

It's "no longer supported" yet never stopped working. Annoying.
