Is this the spying version?
@[email protected] nope, they made a new statement and adjustments to the TOS https://blog.mozilla.org/en/products/firefox/update-on-terms-of-use/
Still a crap statement.
They have yet to explain why my data has to be processed by Mozilla for Firefox to retain it's core functions
They don’t need a ToS to run Firefox. But they need a ToS to allow Mozilla (not Firefox) selling the data.
So, yes.
They have been for a while. Now they understand they can't lie to you about it in all jurisdictions
When did they start?
I've been running nightly for months to use their vertical tab implementation and I really like it. The icon is great too, incidentally. I do find the higher frequency of updates a bit distracting in general though so I'll probably switch back to the public release version, unless there's something just as compelling coming up in the nightlies again soon.
We've had vertical tabs for a while now? Release 130 or 120?
Only as an experimental feature, I think. I think it graduates from Firefox Labs this release.
@[email protected] maybe in Nightly, yes, but not in the stable build. This is the first release to roll out vertical tabs to everyone on the stable channel.
That's odd. I'm on 135 stable and have the feature, I didn't need to go into about:config to enable it, it was in the normal settings.
Was there a soft launch?
@[email protected] I'm on 135 and I don't have it...
@[email protected] @[email protected] Afaik vertical tabs were since some times on stable builds but you had to set at least "sidebar.verticalTabs" (and "sidebar.revamp" probably) to true on about:config
I'm also using vertical tabs since, what… version 132 or 133 maybe?
Odd, probably on my side then
Stacked tabs when?
@[email protected]
using Firefox 136 Developer, the vertical tabs feel behind Edge and other Firefox Forks that support it (it doesn't expand to display tabs name and the tabs favicon is small and easy to click close instead), but better stability somewhat
