Mozilla employee confirms: TabMixPlus is kill

>>61588494
TMP and Tree-Style Tabs are the main reasons I still use FF (actually WaterFox).

What the fuck do these faggots think they're doing? Turning into another not-Chrome is a suicide plan.

I really can't wait for Mozilla to die. At this point it's just a jobs creation program for SJWs.

sjws kill everything they touch

Collateral damage. Killing XUL Extensions will be better in the long run though.

welp, the only reason that I still use FF
how to migrate bookmarks, cookies, history, form completion info from FF to Chrome?

what about
DownThemAll
Greasemonkey
SmoothWheel
Video DownloadHelper

>b-but my crappy XUL addon from 2005 stops working
Fuck off. Adopting WebExtensions was the only sane design decision by Shitzilla.

>>61588897
Chrome can auto-import those.

Why do they hate us? The only reason I'm still using FF is because of the extensions

>>61588979
>>61588860
Shouldn't you be serving breakfast to your in-house refugees?

Extensions like TMP were the last reason to even consider using Firecucks. It's game over now.

Nah, there are still lot of reasons to use Firefox.

>>61589124
They don't. It's just impossible to create new and secure extension APIs with all the features XUL extensions had, because XUL extensions are inherently insecure.

LOL. It has built-in Google Analytics in case you've been living under a rock. >>61338935

The entire post of this thread is that it IS NOT going to be customizable anymore

>last browser to not use WebKit/Blink
What is Edge?

Also, that's arguably a problem not a benefit.

>servo is coming
Empty promises about the feature isn't a rational to use something TODAY

If you care about sandboxing you do it at the system level instead of relying on individual software implementations


>it's now very fast thanks to multithread
Speed isn't a matter if you have an American computer built after 2010.

disgusting degenerate

>>61589523
So if nothing matters, is there a reason why I should not be using Firefox?

>>61588541
>Tree-Style Tabs
Plenty of replacements popped up already. The only thing missing is a way to hide native tabs.
Plenty of time to add that still.

>TMP
What do you even use that for?

>>61589523
>So are Chromium and many others, idiot.
Chromium has never been fully audited, and the others either user WebKit, which is pretty much deprecated, or are "mostly" open source like Opera and Vivaldi.
>LOL. It has built-in Google Analytics in case you've been living under a rock.
It doesn't. The Google Analytics in the add-on page was an oversight and it's now fixed.
>The entire post of this thread is that it IS NOT going to be customizable anymore
It is. You can still modify about:config, install addons and change themes. The only thing is now addons won't be able to modify the GUI.
>What is Edge?
Proprietary crap from Microsoft.
>Also, that's arguably a problem not a benefit.
It's only a problem if you wish to end up with an IE6 scenario all over again.
>Empty promises about the feature isn't a rational to use something TODAY
Some of it's features are already present in Firefox Beta.
>"i'm a freeloader who hates people who want money for their work instead of letting me copy everything and share them with my other basement dwelling friends"
That's a nice strawman, but not an argument.
>If you care about sandboxing you do it at the system level instead of relying on individual software implementations
Not a solution for everyone.
"If you care about customization, you make your own browser" that's how retarded you sound.
>Speed isn't a matter if you have an American computer built after 2010.
It is. Especially since most people don't have a gaymurrrr PC.
>disgusting degenerate
Another non-argument.

Chromium integrates Google "services" as a feature, it doesn't matter that it's open source.

>>61588494
the new meme sidebar with a tab addon is a decent replacement

buttblasted cuckzilla sjwfox employee detected

https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/lkcr/docs/chromium_browser_vs_google_chrome.md

Fuck this sjw piece of shit.

i really hate that they're dropping xul, but i will most likely stick to firefox.
i already got rid of most extensions that are going to break with v57 and honestly, i can barely tell the difference. firefox and its forks will stay the most (easily) customizable browsers, even with the adoption of webextensions.
i'm not making a decision until v57 hits stable, though. but then again, there are no real alternatives to firefox, anyway.

>>61588494
Wait, what's happening to greasemonkey?

>>61589966

Are you pretending to be retarded? That's the one of points of using firefox. Now that it's gone, I lose one of reasons to use firefox.
The implementation of webextension counts too since my favorite add-ons wont move to that shitty new extension.

>>61589633
Plenty of "inferior" replacements

One can hope that their marketshare drops lower and lower

and lower

and

lower

>>61588562
This

all this fucking damage control from firefucks

fucking SJW assholes

there will be no more reasons for me to stick with FF

none!

Everything is kill once they drop addon support. The APIs are a fucking joke. At the pace and depth they are developing them it we are lucky FF will resemble its old self by 2530.

If something as basic as TMP is "incompatible" then any vertical tab addon (aka the only fucking reason to EVER use FF) is flat-out fucking doomed.
Mozilla is absolutely kill, no question.

Good. I hope so.
Please do notify us once the user regains customization and addon power because meanwhile there is zero reason to use it over Chrome.

>>61588955

Video DownloadHelper no longer works on Chrome. When it did it wasn't able to download from certain sites (like YouTube) because of "limitations". It will most likely be kill on Firefox as well.

You'll really do yourself a mischief moving those goalposts all day.

i don't want to use shitty horizontal tabs you retards

>>61593061
You replied to a post that showed examples of vertical tab addons in response to a post that said they were doomed.
There were no goalposts moved. Vertical tab addons are possible with webextensions.

kek, and then they have the gall to accuse Google for their ruin. You dig your own grave, you lie in it.

>>61593108
Actually >>61592994 moved the goalposts by mentioned lack of additional features.

If that was true they wouldn't have pushed out the guy for his donations. He didn't follow the group think so he must go.
