I only use chrome for a couple of extensions that aren’t available for firefox. I should probably reach out to those companies and request that they get a firefox extension working.
Firefox is working to bring chrome extensions to FF.
That’s good to know. I’m surprised that the 2 I currently have to use chrome for aren’t already on FF. As I said, I should probably send them an email and ask them to launch one for FF.
Out of curiosity, what kind of addon would just work in Chrome (not have an alternative in Firefox)?
It’s not an addon, it’s extensions for services like klarna and zip that let you pay for things over time. Those 2 for example have apps that I can and do use but if I want to use them to pay for say concert tickets it’s easier to have it all on my big screen so I can look at whats available and then copy and paste the number into the checkout.
It’s not life or death and I can live without it. It is however the only reason I use chrome on my desktop these days.
