Why I use Firefox
Questions like “Which browser should I use?” regularly come up on the r/browsers subreddit. I sometimes respond to these posts, but my quick replies usually only contain one or two points. To be honest, until recently I wasn’t even sure myself why I use Firefox. Of course it’s a pretty good browser, but that doesn’t explain why I’ve stubbornly stayed loyal to Firefox for more than a decade. After

Everything Is Broken: Shipping rust-minidump at Mozilla – Part 1 For the last year I’ve been leading the development of rust-minidump, a pure-Rust replacement for the minidump-processing half of google-breakpad. Well actually in some sense I finished that work, because Mozilla already deployed it as the crash processing backend for Firefox 6 months ago, it runs in half the time, and seems to be mo

Startup and perceived startup Doug Thayer and Emma Malysz implemented work to improve the perceived startup of Firefox on Windows using a concept called the skeleton UI. Users on Windows may click the Firefox icon and not get visual feedback in the
Introducing Firefox’s new Site Isolation Security Architecture – Mozilla Hacks - the Web developer blog
Introducing Firefox’s new Site Isolation Security Architecture Like any web browser, Firefox loads code from untrusted and potentially hostile websites and runs it on your computer. To protect you against new types of attacks from malicious sites and to meet the security principles of Mozilla, we set out to redesign Firefox on desktop. Site Isolation builds upon a new security architecture that ex
Firefox and Chromium | Madaidan's Insecurities
Last edited: March 19th, 2022 Firefox is sometimes recommended as a supposedly more secure browser because of its parent company's privacy practices. This article explains why this notion is not true and enumerates a number of security weaknesses in Firefox's security model when compared to Chromium. In particular, it covers the less granular process model, weaker sandboxing and lack of modern exp

A New RegExp Engine in SpiderMonkey – Mozilla Hacks - the Web developer blog
Background: RegExps in SpiderMonkey Regular expressions – commonly known as RegExps – are a powerful tool in JavaScript for manipulating strings. They provide a rich syntax to describe and capture character information. They’re also heavily used, so it’s important for SpiderMonkey (the JavaScript engine in Firefox) to optimize them well. Over the years, we’ve had several approaches to RegExps. Con
