From the bug report: 1. Open https://www.google.com/ in a tab 2. Open https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/nightly/ in the same tab 3. Click on Go back button (or Alt+Left Arrow) 4. Click on Go forward button (Alt+Right Arrow) 5. Select some text 6. Right click It doesn't seem like it's a website doing something it shouldn't be and breaking RFC. It's really a bug in firefox. Also, the scope is very specific and kinda…
Earlier quoted context omitted.
I got scared away from Edge with its 10 dark pattern popups you get when you first open it. I haven't had such a horrible experience in a long, long time.
But are you sure you're not unsure that you don't not want to not make Edge not the undefault browser? [Yes] [Negativen't] [Remind me in 3 days]

Specifically the right-click menu option, which is often greyed out for no apparent reason. This happens on both Windows and Linux. Ctrl+C still works, but how does Firefox break something as basic as the right-click menu and copy in 2024?
They're also deleting downloaded .pdf whilst in private mode. Yes even when I click save as. It gets downloaded to my downloads folder and then sometimes it's deleted when I close the browser. Sometimes.
I switched to Edge because of this bug.
I really don't get how people work, sometimes. Stuff like this tells me the privacy fight is just completely unwinnable. It's not even that people don't care; people actively make choices that make their privacy situation worse, because apparently enduring the most minor of annoyances is unthinkable as an alternative.
(And this isn't even an unloved bug that someone arrogantly thinks doesn't matter, and has been languishing for years. It's actively being worked on, and it turns out the various interactions involved makes tracking it down and fixing it difficult. And it looks like there are patches that might fix the problem after all.)

I use private browsing when doing legal work so an errant Google session doesn't hoover up anything it shouldn't, and I've had so many random documents and briefings just disappear that I'd convinced myself that I was just mistaken about saving them.
