      Go to about:config - find option browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab - set to false. If you’re only using the close tab button, it will never close out of the program. If you’re closing a lot of windows using the window control though that won’t really help.

    What about Safari? Why no one ever talked about it?

    It’s the only browser (that I know of) that allows Netflix streaming in 4k.

      I’d assume because the majority of people here don’t use Apple products

    Chrome is the pimp Firefox is the whore. Vanilla Firefox is full of spyware from Google.

      How do you figure? Firefox is not a chromium based browser, and Mozilla is not owned by google.

        Yes, Firefox is not based on Chromium but that doesn’t exempt it from being full of built-in Google crap

          YOU are the one making the claim so YOU NEED TO PROVIDE THE PROOF.

            just make a check of your DNS requests and open about:config and you will see a lot of google crap

      Absolutely not, and there are other forks like Waterfox and Librewolf which are very much focussed on providing custom versions of FF, focused on privacy, security and freedom.

        Yes, this forks are better than Vanilla Firefox but I’m not referring to them in this case

        Other point, Firefox is not so secure as you think

      You know that part of Huckleberry Finn where his dad goes on a racist tirade? That was actually criticism of poor whites being ok with their shit conditions simply because they could look down on black people. Twain was based as fuck for his time period.

        Mark Twain’s quotes are my goto in many situations. He is based AF, indeed.
