No More Ads In Firefox Tiles

    No More Ads In Firefox Tiles


    Posted: 09 Dec 2015
    For the past three or four years, I have been one of the unhappiest Firefox fans. Even since the parent company decided to ape Chrome, it went downhill. A steep slope full of rusty metal spikes, mines, bears, wolves, dragons, trolls, acid, and death. One bad news after another


    Now though, something really good has happened. Mozilla has officially announced they are going to remove advertisement from the Tiles.

    It is nice to read about actual improvement to FF, instead of the usual claptrap about the latest useless "exciting & empowering" changes.

    I never knew a new Firefox tab showed ads. I'd seen the stories, the complaints, and now the "no more ads" thing. But never ads.

    When I was still running FF on my main PC, I disabled the thumbnail launcher thing.

    Note
    I still use FF in my VMs and in Linux Mint.
