With the latest multi-process update and its interface that is still better than Chrome's, I'm thinking about getting Firefox back as my main browser again.
My last problem with it is security : I know that it wasn't sandboxed for a long time (Chrome, IE, Edge, Opera and Safari are), and it seemed to be the least secure of all. Now I heard that they had begun to sandbox tabs, but I can't find anything on it.
Is it sandboxed yet ? Can I trust it ?

Well I'm not against it, but if something as big as Mozilla struggles to make a secure browser, why should I trust a random group of 4chan posters ?

No it's not retard. Why should it be bait ?

It just needs javascript support and scripting abilities for addons, literally all it needs.

Firefox will never be secure because it's filled with liberal retard SJW.
That's why it's gotten so bad and only getting worse, they wont make it fully secure because they love brown cock and proper sandboxing is like trumps wall keeping out the Mexicans they want to suck the cocks of so much.

That's the least subtle thread hijacking I've seen in my entire 4chan life.
You may go back to /pol/ and fuck yourself.

Nah, I'm fine here thanks.

Firefox has to appeal to the general user aka NORMIES-REEEEEE. Smaller project browsers do not and can therefore focus on security at the expense of other features.

It's still slower than chrome.

Sandboxing is enabled on all processes except the compositor process on windows. They're in the process of tightening the restrictions now.

Well, that's exactly why I made a thread about it, retard.

Thank you.

From my usage it's not slower, and doesn't crash my whole session because an i5 and 4GB or RAM aren't enough for some bloated website, unlike Chrome.

Or just be the change you want to see and contribute to Mozilla directly. It's more practical.

>>60962064
Their ridiculously long and nerdy list of requirements will never make it in Firefox. That's why they make their own.

Firefox will never be what NetRunner will
