Firefox has better tooling for CSS (really good flexbox for e.g.) but it lacks on the JS side.

One basic feature that is missing for e.g. is that one cannot open a file using the syntax filename:line:column in the source editor. You will need to navigate the line number manually after opening the file.

Thank goodness. Browsers are for browing the internet. File Managers are used for opening files. I lock down SeaMonkeys JS.

Personally I like SeaMonkey as it is community build Mozilla. Many of the "features" have settings in preferences.

It seems to me that the Mozilla Foundation is pushing the project in some weird spots(DoH) and while not ad revenue based, they do take money from companies.

Notice the Search Provides list? Who uses Ebay as their primary search provides? Heck who wants to search from the URL bar.

Otter-Browser is making great strides and I use it on untrusted sites. Please make the browser simple and not hide settings in about:config.

Me? I love this feature.

You've gone too far.

F6 + query + Enter ftw. D: It's how I've always done it.
