firefox was always good because the address bar just works. in chrome how come when I type a single letter it brings up my most used site that starts with that letter, but as soon as I type the second letter in the url it gets replaced by something I've never searched for or visited before. complete crap

the fact that there is a separate hole for search and url is a disgrace

do you mean like shrinking the size of tab object so you can have more of them in the view without having to scroll? if so, set browser.tabs.tabMinWidth to something smaller. I use 30.

wasnt that one just firefox without anything that was trademarked by mozilla? waterfox was originally just firefox compiled for 64bit so its a bit redundant now that they support 64bit officially. pale moon is the really stupid one since it's based on a pre-quantum fork of gecko which means it's a) incredibly slow on modern sites and b) not receiving any kind of security updates from upstream any more. (anyone going "but my precious xpcom add-ons" can just :fuckoff:)

instead of bookmarks, i'd like it if i could have firefox index the text on a page. then i could just do a text search for whatever i'm looking for and it would show me related bookmarks.

basically like having my own personal search engine curated only with pages i add myself.
