  • Legitimately miss 3.5, to this day. Peak functionality.

    I have been using Firefox since before it was called Firefox, and I’m not sure I’ve ever been happy after an update.

    • Inconsistent icon size and texture

    No! DISTINCT icon size and texture! Not a row of generic ultra-light squiggles, all the same color, conveying nothing until you look straight at them. The back button is fucking enormous because it’s obviously what you’ll use most. Stop and reload are weird and discouraging. There’s a reason all your plugins use different colors - that’s what icons are for, god dammit!

    Complexity is a feature. Visible similarity conveys semantic similarity! 4.0 just took all the nested functionality and swept it behind a button.





  • Stop downvoting people who treat computers the way they ought to work! Needing to restart shit, with any regularity, is a flaw. Some of us are doing work, god dammit, and having to get things set up from scratch is a pain in the ass.

    All the stuff I have open is open for a reason. The fact it all gradually stops working is not excused by the fact it can be unfucked by a hard reset. It’s supposed to keep working.
