I use firefox and I like it but they have been dumbfying their UI and nagging users to use pockets.
Why on earth would I need to go to about window to update? Also, I don’t know where to find extensions so I just choose addons then manually go to extensions.
Hm, where do they nag? I don't know what Pockets is and haven't seen anything about it.
I also never manually update Firefox, I just restart when it tells me it's downloaded an update.
Every other update would show an ad to use it. Also, you cannot remove it afaik.
You can with about:config flags, you can also set the API url to some random shit so it can't even ping Mozilla.
