The fact that firefox updates when I open it instead of when I close it. Has to be the most annoying feature ever. (lemy.lol)

I mean like why? Just open and update when I'm done that's what every other browser does. Stop making me wait to use the Internet firefox!

I'm not really hankering for that 4 seconds it takes to restart.

Takes longer on older hardware

I’m running a 12 year old laptop with 80 tabs open. Last time I did apt upgrade and had to restart the browser it took about six seconds.

My T400 and T480 are nearly indistinguishable from my ThinkCentre M70q Gen 2.

It matters more when you clear history and cookies automatically at close. You lose your entire session.
