    > Firefox now limits CSS to 75 levels of nested blocks and functions, preventing crashes that extremely deep nesting can cause under some circumstances. More deeply nested rules and values no longer parse.

    Very interesting change. I’ve yet to see CSS more than 20 levels deep. Good to put a stop to such insanity.

      I wonder what made them attempt to support such deep nesting in the first place.

        Always possible there’s some buggy CSS compiler in the wild that ships a crazy rule and nobody tested in Firefox.

    "Smart Window" ?

    Is Firefox trying to push away us remaining users ?

      How else do they stay relevant when everything else has ai packed-in in some fashion? /s

    I recently had to install Firefox and windows so I could throughly test something

    Holy Hell is the praise for this product misplaced. Maybe if you installed it long enough ago it preserves your choices and hides the garbage?

    It’s like modern website full of pop up ads and garbage. There’s like 10 different scammy things in your face you have to figure out how to hide or disable

    I’d pick Edge, if I had to pick either, after this experience

      Doesn't Edge have the same problem?

      I also dislike the choices the product team of Firefox is doing. However, it is the only (afaik) major browser distro that has support for a proper adblocker, so I grind my teeth and remove homepage widgets and tab suggestions and weather forecasts.

        Helium browser is Chromium based but still supports uBlock Origin (they haven't deprecated MV2 yet)
