On: In 2024, please switch to Firefox

[schimmy_changa]

similarly, on mac this bug is a showstopper for me, so I'm using Brave currently: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1149826

(the bug is that text replacement does not work in FF on mac, something that saves me so much time daily)

My main Problem is that fn+E won't open the emoji picker.

I have to go to another app, insert an emoji there and copy it over.

I tried switching to Firefox like 3 times this year, but there's always something putting me off. I really really want to though.

If this is on macOS, what about ⌘ ^ SPC to get the emoji picker?

[verwalt → sixstringtheory]

Nothing happens.

But sometimes, it "works" but there's no opening animation and it instantly runs the closing animation of the pop up and it's gone again.

It's really weird.

Sometimes fn+E does work, but it writes an unwanted "e".

On macOS, the most annoying thing for me is the inability to use the native login to authenticate to apple web services. I have to type in my apple ID, my password, and then the code sent to one of my devices every time. On chrome and safari, I can just use my fingerprint or laptop password and done.

Yes. This bug makes the UX on mac just feel broken and frustrating reminds you every time you do it. Tried to bear it for a year but I use text replacements so heavily that I had to switch off eventually. Firefox: for the love of Jobs, fix it!
