@0x4d696b75@yassie_j What do you mean by abandoned on Android? Firefox for Android still seems to be a thing (Note: I don't have a smartphone, can't test).
@lanodan Firefox on Android was rewritten to use Android Components, a Mozilla framework written in Rust. It offers a Chromium-like API (which I've never used) while promising to be faster. It had teething issues to begin with, like tab reloads when switching apps. It also doesn't support desktop Firefox extensions either. It only recently got the ability to print pages!
@thatbrickster@0x4d696b75@lanodan annoying cos I really like using Firefox Android, but there’s just a few quirks here and there that I felt Edge didn’t have. For example, sometimes the address bar will be hidden, permanently, unless I scroll ALL the way up to the top (or open a new tab from a link in the page… Not always possible), and also that web apps are just… Janky and weird. You install one via Chrome or Edge and they work… Fine. But Firefox makes them… Weird in some way.
@thatbrickster@0x4d696b75@lanodan you fucking kidding me, I thought I was losing my mind when I couldn’t find a print command in Firefox Android a while back (had to ‘share’ it to my printer app)
@yassie_j@0x4d696b75@thatbrickster Address bar thing reminds me of the issues I had with it in like 2016… (switched to SailfishOS, which uses the mozilla-killed mozembed; then stopped using a smartphone)
@yassie_j The address bar can be made to stay in Settings->Customise->Untick 'scroll to hide toolbar'. I also have the 'pull to refresh' gesture disabled because it annoys me to no end.
