Yes that would actually be very helpful! I’ve had trouble doing that on the android version, and I have heard that can help show what exactly is causing the issue. I have heard some settings on ublock can cause this (which I have tried tinkering with)
I think they know about the cross device syncing but yeah think it’s too slow. Idk how long it’s been since they used it.
There is an issue I’ve had with Firefox on Android that I’ve tried to fix but haven’t been able to, where the first time I load a website in like… An hour or 2, it takes a long time to load. After that everything is pretty quick but the first load after the app has been suspended (is my guess) is slow
The problem is they apparently really value having cross device syncing between desktop and phone, and dislike Firefox on mobile a bit due to speed. Idk I mean yeah I think chromium browsers on android are technically faster (seems to me at least) but with no ads it’s way better
Hoping this could maybe help convince my friends who are just looking for a chromium alternative and won’t even consider firefox
That is quite unfortunate. However it seems like it could lead to more affordable gpus that do well enough? That would be nice at least
Lol I was just about to post this. Yeah this is a decision for sure. Wouldn’t be surprised if this causes another big spike in Lemmy usage

Hahaha, it’s a play on my name and the Pokemon yeah. But I am also a red dwarf fan so perhaps it has 3 meanings!
So many people asking what the point is while I’m over here enjoying my new system icon. Thanks for the post!!! 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
Only real reason I use fennec over mull is mull by default has a fingerprinting setting that, while being better for privacy, locks the app to 60hz and my phone supports 120hz. If 60hz doesn’t bother you then I think mull is the better choice. But they’re really similar at the end of the day
Yeah I’m kind of puzzled by it too lol. I wish they had just kept their original solution of using Macs to run iMessage. Perhaps if they had gotten popular it still would have been blocked, but their whole strategy of being super open about it is odd. I suppose they thought they could fight it but evidently that wasn’t the case.
Overall though I agree with the post, the app is really nice, the new android version is super slick and if they can get all the other connections working locally like they want, it’ll be even better
Agreed summit is great. It’s my go to until sync gets some more updates
Am I wrong or is this article 3 years old?
I feel the same way. I end up being in 30 or so different Pokemon ROM hack servers just to get the patch files for the games. Very frustrating to have to do that when there are websites dedicated to hosting these files
Unfortunately seems like this won’t help that, if they expect you to be on the server to get the files. The article says the links will be auto refreshed daily, so it’s only the links shared outside the server that won’t work after a day :(
I mean, the EEOC is literally suing them. Not sure what part you don’t believe. If you don’t believe that stuff actually happened there, did you read to the end of the article? It’s not the first time they’ve been accused of this
Oohhh def checking this out. One of my college classes was writing a compiler for a made up language and it was super fun! I wrote mine in Python and I thought it was a really cool project
I see what you’re saying. I do agree that people should have the opportunity to be educated to at least a baseline understanding of some things. If for nothing else but to avoid being scammed.
I mean ideally I would just like these companies to be held responsible for doing shady stuff behind the scenes, I don’t think having easy to understand UIs (and as a result, a bit obfuscated from what’s actually happening) and such have to be a bad thing. But maybe it’s too idealistic to want that and expect companies to actually be held accountable if the obfuscation is hiding bad stuff
Yeah I’m realizing I didn’t word that super well. Yes sync is a thing and they know that, but they don’t want to have to use Firefox on mobile because they think it’s slow
