  • Conflicting info on Dark Mode removal from Firefox for iOS
    1 project | news.ycombinator.com | 27 Mar 2024
    Users are complaining that the latest Firefox for iOS update has removed the "Dark mode" option from the menu:[1]

    > I suffer from Diabetic Retinopathy and hence photophobia. To me, this removal is an Accessability issue.

    A forum moderator who's in touch with the developers said days ago that this is an experiment affecting half of the userbase:[2]

    > The team is currently doing an experiment. Since March 15, 50% of users no longer see Night Mode switch from the hamburger menu. We're using this experiment to monitor and evaluate the impact of removing, so it'll be hugely valuable to hear your feedback around this feature. Thanks!

    However, Mozilla's iOS team manager doesn't know about this huge experiment and think it is a bug:[3]

    > Moving Focus into the Firefox repo so it can get more love and support. This happened last release and may be the culprit that broke dark mode. We're looking into this right now.

    Yeah, Orion's support for Firefox extensions is a big red flag. These 2 issues on the Firefox-iOS tracker[0,1] around extensions and content blockers have long mentioned Orion, but there's no response from Mozilla.

  • Why Firefox shows unsecure connection when using reader view
    1 project | /r/firefox | 8 May 2023
    When you use Reader View, Firefox parses the text of the webpage and loads it as a local page. It isn't supposed to show a red slash, though. Reader Mode shows a neutral icon (đź“„) on the desktop version. Please open this page and click on New Issue to report this to Mozilla, and then share the link with us.
