    If you’re switching a couple extensions are uBlock origin and no script with Firefox, prevents most ads and lets you choose which hosts to accept JavaScript from temporarily or permanently.

      noscript is your web condom. I will not touch a page without it.

        Vivaldi has in its inbuild ad/trackerblocker also filters to block cookie popups, no problem with this

      Mouse gestures is the killer-app for me on Firefox. Hate surfing without it.

      P.S. Do wish Firefox had tab groups tho.

          Firefox add-on for Tab Groups? I looked and couldn’t find one. At some point they appeared to try to support tab groups, but gave up? I dunno. I’ve only used Chrome a little. I don’t personally care for Chrome, but I found the tab groups useful.

            I just searched “tab groups Firefox” and found results saying it has them. No idea as I wasn’t able to find relevant settings last time I tried on a PC. Mobile just now I tried adding tabs to a collection, but it doesn’t look like it did anything

              Thanks, but I tried a few weeks back to get tab groups working for Firefox on MacOS. No joy.

                Hope someone else chimes in on how to do this. I typically have hundreds of tabs open, groups were a godsend

                On mobile chrome I have “:D” tabs open which I occasionally go through and cull
