To the people, is Firefox still the go to browser? Is there something better out there for the average person? I’ve heard good things about internet explorer.

    First of all, I’d really love to know who told you anything, let alone good, about IE.

    If anything, Firefox is in the best spot it’s ever been. Any time I’ve encountered an issue with it, it was because Google are actively crippling the web experience for the rest of the internet

      Unless you’re using android where on tablets it still doesn’t support multi tab browsing but is an overblown phone app.

        What do you mean by multi-tab browsing.

        I’ve used Firefox on Android tablets and while it does have a “phone app” UX to it, it works fine; specifically tabbed browsing is not an issue.

          Every other android browser supports tab bar for browsers on wide devices , the one exception FF.

          I want a desktop type experience on my tablet not a phone UX.

            I see, yes the tab bar was missing.

            I admit this is something they need to work on.

        What version are you using? Firefox Beta for Android supports multi-tabs on both tablet and phone.

        You got me there, it is really frustrating that I have to open Edge if I want to have two tabs open at the same time.
