Tried. No success. I've also fully-uninstalled it with CleanMyMac, also to no success.
have you changed the resolution of your display to be "scaled" in system preferences? does setting it to "default for display" make FF usable again?
Still no option to see all of the permissions an extension requires without digging through its source. :( https://imgur.com/a/k4rk0 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1449698
> Applied Quantum CSS to render browser UI I'm so excited about the future of Firefox. In addition to the above, OpenBSD is currently working on pledge support in FF. In a couple years FF could be simultaneously faster, more private and more secure than Chrome.
I use FF on OpenBSD as my daily browser. I have at least three different profiles running simultaneously with multiple tabs open in each (though I don't go nuts with tabs like some do -- I never tend to have more than 10 or so open). It does occasionally seem to get stuck in a state where it just starts chewing CPU cycles and RAM. I've seen this mostly with Google sites like gmail or docs, so I assume it's JS-related…
The gmail/gdocs slowdowns are being tracked and worked on. It's a problem when websites actively optimize for competitive products though.
>Added a policy engine that allows customized Firefox deployments in enterprise environments, using Windows Group Policy or a cross-platform JSON file Hopefully this means the two gigantic companies I work for will phase out Firefox ESR for Quantum. I also hope they move from 32-bit Firefox to 64-bit, but I've learned to keep my expectations low when it comes to these places progressing with tech. >Added support for…

Does Pocket Sponsored Stories violate privacy? It doesn't seem like they track the user or anything like that. And, Mozilla claims their approach is "Privacy-Conscious".
I'm unreasonably happy that Native Module support is now enabled by default in Firefox, Safari, Chrome, and Edge! My side-projects and experiments (like the WebGL2 "minecraft-y" demo - https://mrspeaker.github.io/webgl2-voxels/ ) now work out of the box: no build system, no transpilers, no dot-files. Happy day!
