Really excited about the new PDF editing features!
At this point I’d be happy for people to understand what pdfs are and stop sending them on the emails with signatures that say “to open the file download adobe acrobat reader”… Like I received the other day.
-“Can you send me the vector artwork for this logo, not just a png?”
-“Sure, here you go.”
It’s the exact same png, just embedded in a pdf
At least cheating like this is still an svg.
<image width="20" height="20" xlink:href="data:image/png;base64,..."/>
Nostalgia to the 90s…:)
Yes! This one is the big feature for me. PDFs are always a pain to sign.
On Linux I’ve been using Xournal which does the job pretty well, but I’m really looking forward to try it on Firefox!
When I saw that my reaction was “Why is firefox including a pdf editor?”, curious if a lot of people will use it
If you’re running Linux, you’d understand why so many people are excited about that one feature. I sure am very excited. PDF editors on Linux (as far as I know) suck on Linux.
Same for windows!
Pdfs are about the only thing left I can think of that are better on windows now
I guess I don’t edit pdfs very often except latex?
Oh damn this is a huge release. The last couple of updates have been pretty small on the user end but it looks like a ton of features finally were ready for release this time. They’re even releasing some of their fingerprint resistance features as enabled by default which is really cool.
Coolest feature:

DNS over HTTPS + encrypted keys for concealing web addresses from my ISP? Neat! That plus my VPN and I’m feeling really obfuscated.
Unless of course websites don’t implent it…
I still don’t get how I’d make it work with my pihole
But JXL when
Probably in 120.
There are a lot of changes in 120 in format support.
120 supports hardware HEVC decoding.They’re paying for HVEC support finally?
It’s passthrough to WMF.
A really terrible decision for the open web.
WMF? Windows media framework?
Windows Media Foundation I believe, but yeah.
Thank you
If Firefox 119 was so great, why isnt there a 120???
Oh yeah? So if Firefox 120 was so great, why isnt there a 121???
Oh yeah if thats so greats then why isnt there 122
WHAT!?!?! why the fuck would anyone use chrome at this point?
That’s a lot of new features
Again a button I don’t want in the tab bar, but I’m glad that this time it can be removed with two clicks, without digging into about:config.
This is not a new button, right? Firefox view already existed.
I like that they changed the icon of Firefox view. The firefox icon on it didn’t make any sense.Oh, you’re right, I guess it’s a new standalone version and that’s why it reappeared for me.
I just searched and reactivated the options in about:config for the old version, nothing reappears (neither does the drop down menu) as long as I don’t take firefox view out again from the customization menu.
