With automatic updates and SaaS business models, we have fully lost control of our devices.

There is no way for me to disable marketing push notifications on any device.

I can’t tell Facebook to remove Reels because it’s too addicting.

Firefox is my primary brower, but 5x per week I have to switch to Chrome because a website won’t let me login or is acting funky.

I have used firefox and adblock/ublock since literally 2007, and have NEVER experienced this. What websites have given you trouble? What functionality doesn't work in firefox? What functionality is even different in firefox? Is it just servers reading your user-agent and saying no?


I'm finding oauth doesn't always work. I haven't run into it recently, but it was annoying.

A documented gap is my SSO provider (JumpCloud)'s Device Trust Certificate only works in Chrome and Safari on MacOS.
