    I’ve tried switching so many times, most recently yesterday. Every time something just doesnt work or is missing. Yesterday it was stremios web client that refused to show the video that I was simultaneously watching in chrome.

    And the fact that Firefox doesnt do tab groups. Such a convenient feature for me, and I couldnt find an extension that did the job. Maybe some of you can help?

      Absolutely agree on the tab groups. I don’t get how this is not implemented yet, it’s a basic feature with great impact to usability.

        Firefox actually had tab groups way back, but Mozilla, in their infinite wisdom, removed it because apparently their main mission now is to antagonize all their loyal power users.

          Right now there’s no built in options and it could just be deactivated.

          Also the add ins I’ve seen still lack chrome’s feature of auto grouping. They just allow me to manually group.

        No amount of refreshing or clearing cookies and cache has helped so far. It just says “video not supported” no matter which file I try to play.

          What are you trying to play ? Probably should contact mods. Would be good for them to know. Others will have similar problems.

          Do you have add one ? I need to turn off dark mode for some sites as it breaks it. Those are the only issues I’ve had.

            It is probably a very specific issue, since I can’t find anyone else that has it, at least not doing the usual google-fu.

            When using the Stremio web client, firefox refuses to play anything I throw at it, whereas everything plays fine in the chromium browsers I’ve tried.

            No amount of turning extensions off or clearing cache or cookies or refreshing has fixed it so far.

              Fire through the link and maybe folk can check it out. I know GeForce now doesn’t work on Firefox and steam doesn’t play nice.
