Honestly, I was already using FF for my home. Made the switch on Mobile after seeing this on the news yesterday. I'm just one person though.

I've also switched to FF on both desktop and mobile because of this. So there's two of us!

I've been using Firefox Mobile for years. It's never let me down and having mobile adblock is great

[–] blady_blah 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I made the switch on Mobile when YouTube's ads started getting super annoying. Ad block is a killer app in my book.

Apparently Firefox can synchronise your bookmarks between your desktop and your mobile app? Does anyone have experience with this?

[–] Yttra 6 points 1 year ago

Works perfectly for me, though by default mobile bookmarks are in their own folder, iirc

[–] sgtlighttree 5 points 1 year ago

Bookmarks is a little finicky in my experience, but tabs syncing between devices is quite good, but not as automatic as I want to be.

Not just that, it has a great password manager I've been using for years now. You can also sync tabs.

I switched my whole family several years back. Nobody has any issues with it.
