"We’re still preparing the notes for this release, and will post them here when they are ready. Please check back later."

"I really want to be the first one to post this, even if nothing has been released, yet".

Happens all the time on HN, and our defense is a little link above.

I got the update on Archlinux, as it's released, but I was surprised to find an empty release note…

"Pocket recommendations, featuring some of the best stories on the web, will appear on the Firefox new tab for our users in the UK."

I really hate to admit how often those darn Pocket recommendations get me! I don't know how they choose what shows up on my tab, but more often than not, there's at least one thing in there I end up reading.

I love targeted ads too! Let us all embrace the botnet.

Does anyone know why specifically the UK? Has it been rolled out in the US already?

Surely it's not difficult to come up with 5-10 interesting articles?

Anyway, personally I've never seen pocket on my firefox. My new tab opens to a blank page. And I love firefox for allowing this degree of customization.

I use Safari on my laptop but, I have Firefox on my personal desktop. I don't see why Firefox keeps on putting in more and more features that compromise their previous brand image and actions that remove privacy oriented features or add features that revert this.

Even Windows is putting ads in your face in the operating system itself.
