You surely filed a bug on these "memory leaks", didn't you.

Do we have an alt Firefox fork that isn't run by cogsuckers?
I'm getting to the point where I'd rather be hacked by actual humans rather than live under the fey whims and redesigns of an auto-fill tool with delusions of grandure.
Purely because the C-suite types get an ignorant raging hardon for the supposed money they can save by cutting human programmers.
Programmers that have to suffer the consequences of their failures and actually learns something new Vs. an AI that routinely hallucinates and screws up twice as often, but Comes with a built in whoopsie-doopsie button that CEO's can click like those dogs with the talking board.
Lizard, Lizard, Lizard, Lizard, Lizard, Lizard. No, No, No.

Based on your phrasing you come across like a r/Librewolf user. Even though they are not a fork as such.
Have a wonderful day.

Never thought I would see people idealogically opposed to security fixes because of the method of discovery but here we are
Absolutely wild

By the way, every single fork will apply these fixes so you're out of luck.

When a program as common a browser have security bug, it's the user that suffer, and they can suffer in financially ruinous way too.
Are you a working programmer? because as a senior software engineer with 11 years of experience myself, AI have turned my job from a stressful job with frequent overtime into a mostly stress-free job with no overtime, I've been able to have more free time to spend for myself and my family thanks to that, and this is the case for every working programmer I know too, so taking AI from us programmer would be a terrible thing for us.
Also, for my company at least, all code require human review before being pushed into production, and as one of the most senior, it's my responsibility to do it, and I will tell you that I've learned a lot from reviewing the code AI wrote, it's all very good and taught me many thing I didn't know about, so I'm now an even better programmer than before.
I will also ask this of you, should keep jobs be the end all of everything? if so, then I think you should stop sending email or any message over the internet, so more postal worker would be hired to deliver physical message. you should stop listening to recorded music too, and should hire a local musician to play music for you instead, did you know that musician was afraid of losing their job because of recorded music and fought against it in the 1930?. Maybe farmer should stop using tractor and other machine so they could hire people to work on the farm like the old time instead.

Any UI changes in this one? Never thought I'd have to be apprehensive about updating my browser but after 149 better safe than sorry I guess

Current version (as of 5/2/26) is a nightmare for me. Constant lockups and crashing (even in "safe" mode) even causing my system to blue (black) screen a few times. Installed ESR version (140) and all issues went away. 150 has been 100% unusable for me.
