IndexedDB is completely broken in latest Safari
> There's even recent work to add even higher performance APIs into the Filesystem Access API and the reception from Firefox and Safari has been positive.
Positive as in: "FileSystem Access is a significant security risk and we're not going to implement this"? https://www.chromestatus.com/feature/6284708426022912
Positive as in "No, we don't want fifteen different file access apis, and we don't think Storage Foundation API is going anywhere"? https://www.chromestatus.com/feature/5670244905385984
And even though this is a draft created and authored exclusively by Googlers, even other Googlers are confused: https://github.com/WICG/storage-foundation-api-explainer/iss...

Conflicting info on Dark Mode removal from Firefox for iOS
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.

last known version to work on ios 12?
https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/firefox-ios/commit/686d36402c6a956f460abafc8f1fe19a7887a2f3 landed in v38, so it looks like v37 was the last to support iOS 12.

Why Firefox shows unsecure connection when using reader view
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 (๐) 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.
