While we are not an official Mozilla community, we have adopted the Mozilla Community Participation Guidelines as far as it can be applied to a bin.
Always be civil and respectful
Don't be toxic, hostile, or a troll, especially towards Mozilla employees. This includes gratuitous use of profanity.
Don't be a bigot
No form of bigotry will be tolerated.
Don't post security compromising suggestions
If you do, include an obvious and clear warning.
Don't post conspiracy theories
Especially ones about nefarious intentions or funding. If you're concerned: Ask. Please don’t fuel conspiracy thinking here. Don’t try to spread FUD, especially against reliable privacy-enhancing software. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Show credible sources.
Don't accuse others of shilling
Send honest concerns to the moderators and/or admins, and we will investigate.
Do not remove your help posts after they receive replies
Half the point of asking questions in a public sub is so that everyone can benefit from the answers—which is impossible if you go deleting everything behind yourself once you've gotten yours.
I have a copy backed up, works fine when loaded manually
Noice. I'm sure there's mirrors up already. Article says it'll eventually stop working tho. I know I have a few extensions that eventually were disabled daily and I had to enable them each time I started chrome
This might be what makes he leave for Firefox full time. A bummer indeed
Edit: ha, just saw what sub/community this is. I use FF but only for browsing... privately ;]
Why not just use Firefox all the time? Literally zero reason to use Chrome except for the rare website that doesn't work with Firefox?
I can understand them, I use Firefox on my PC, but Chrome on my phone, as I can't live without tab groups there, for me it's almost unusable without it, as I always have 100+ tabs open on my mobile browser
When they'll add it, I'll use Firefox on both
You do realize that bookmarks exist, right?
Using bookmarks as a substitute for tab groups is a very different user experience, though.
But you can make folders in bookmarks....is this not the same thing?
I don't think so. As far as context switching goes, tab groups are faster and, having used both Chrome's tab groups and Firefox's bookmarks, I'd argue they're easier to manage too.
The way I see it, each feature has different intended uses. Ideally, I wouldn't use tab groups as a bookmarks substitute either... but sometimes it happens due to their advantages.
Is Google's similar to grouping android apps into clusters?
I'm not sure what exactly you're talking about.
This article—which I haven't read—has a screenshot of mobile Google Chrome tab grouping. Hopefully this'll help.
