If only we could pay for Firefox so they could get rid of that Google funding…
has any browser ever made that work? Opera has to be the most popular by a mile and even they couldn't keep that business model going

Mr Robot? What?
You could always tell they didn't mean to install chrome, because these people would also have a malware "Chrome" browser that installed through the exact same pathway.
Re: Introducing Ad Blocker for Firefox on iOS
#84It's been days (weeks?) and I'm still waiting for the option to appear for me. These "experiments" are super annoying when you are on what I'm assuming is the long tail of a rollout but the marketing/blog posts speak of the feature like it's already launched. If there's someone at Mozilla reading this: turn it on already! I want to get off Orion, it's so buggy, but the internet is unusable without an ad blocker.

#87Didn't see it even after updating, then read https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/block-ads-firefox-ios : > This feature is experimental and is being introduced to the Firefox user base through a progressive rollout. It may not yet be available to all users. Additionally, remote improvements must be enabled. Apparently, you can only block ads if you allow Mozilla telemetry. Thanks, dicks.

#89https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/block-ads-firefox-ios#w... > Does ad blocking affect search engine ads? > No. Ads shown on search engine results pages are not blocked. A lot of the search results on top of Google are there to scam you, providing phone numbers for pass through services that charge $ for it, like flight cancellation: https://www.reddit.com/r/Scams/comments/1p6h81i/beware_fake_... So this omission…
