We want a true black-dark mode for OLED. This missing feature is holding me back from going 100% Firefox on mobile (I am only using it for horrible websites that are asking fo the ublock origin treatment.
2022 request for this feature: https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/provide-a-black-dark-mode-in-firefox-mobile/idi-p/2578/page/4#comments
Yes, I want the most for Firefox to be twice as slow as my current browser (Firefox/Fennec)
What country do you live in: Germany, United States, Brazil, other
What? Weird survey options.
could just be the countries with the most users or where they’ve seen a recent trend, up or down, in local market share.
Someone being funny? BUG
Data retention would be my guess.
I didn’t see that question, but all 3 of those countries seem to rank pretty high on the country demographics for FOSS that I’ve seen (as in when individual FOSS projects do demographics surveys of their users)
Very weird, because it’s not sorted alphabetically. That means there is a bias in the sorting, because the first option is default and the best option for most users.
They are sorted at random for each visitor.
Oh I meant this as a joke, to place Germany as the best answer.^^ But regardless, good to know its random. Probably doesn’t even matter.

What about tab groups
You folks are really exaggerating. How is this survey weird? The random questions in groups of 3 make it easy to compare 3 features instead of rating 60 different features by most wanted to least wanted. In aggregate from thousands of replies, they can sort all answers.
I feel like most of these people were way over analyzing the questions. No reason to look for in depth meaning of possible answers, just answer them and take them at face value.
It’s the “most wanted” language. I don’t blame common folks associating “most wanted” with “I want this!” when in fact they don’t mean it.
But the language is clear. From these 3 features, choose the one you want the most and the one you want the least 🤔
The language is not clear.
" As a vegetarian, which of these three options you want the least and which you want the most? You MUST choose to continue:
- Chicken sandwich.
- A kick in the balls.
- Pork sandwich.
"
You are saying that a reasonable person (vegetarian in this case, and disclaimer: I am not vegetarian) would say “well, I want a kick in the balls the least, so I’ll choose that. Now, fuck, I HATE chicken sandwiches and I HATE pork sandwiches. They both make me puke. But if I have to choose, I guess I’ll go for the chicken sandwich. Hey pollster, I want the chicken sandwich the most.” And the pollster writes “Chester wants the chicken sandwich the most.” Yeah, very clear.
That’s the typical “if you were in a deserted island” scenario that vegetarians and vegans are very familiar with. Given those 3 options:
1 > 2 > 3
They could’ve just said “Rank the features from one to three accordibg to how much you like it”. This seems unneccessarily more confusing. It isn’t all that cobfusing, but it is an odd way to formulate the question.
That’s already suggestive. What if you want none of them, and strongly so?
If you hate or love them all equally, I guess a random score is fine.
The person evaluating the poll will take away “person likes option 1 most” not “person absolutely wants none of these in their browser, ever”. That’s the issue. You should not phrase questions in a way that assumes parts of the answer, at least not if you want useful results.
A better way would have been to let us rate features 0 to 10 and just accept if people thought their feature ideas are all shit.
It’s not a better way to rate from 0 to 10. It takes way more effort from the user and leads to more people dropping out. And in the end, the result is the same in aggregate. If your opinion is popular, more people will vote like you because the sets of 3 are random. In a survey of thousands, individual opinions don’t matter. No one is going to evaluate the answers one by one.
It takes way more effort from the user and leads to more people dropping out.
Then make it 0 to 3 or 0 to 1 for all I care. You missed the point, which is: If I want or don’t want feature A doesn’t influence if I want or don’t want feature B, and linking the two distorts the results of the poll.
in the end, the result is the same in Aggregate.
Not if you include the human factor of the decision maker, who can twist “wanted less” into “still wanted a bit” as a justification if they want a certain feature for different reasons than user benefit (like, say, a “privacy friendly” but indeed not at all privacy friendly mechanism to give data to add networks). That doesn’t fly with “0 points”.
All those features, and the only one I want is customizable hotkeys. Although I guess I’d also take “browser is twice as fast.”
Which do you prefer:
( ) browser twice as fast
( ) women find you irresistible
( x) browser twice as fast
( ) women find you irresistible
Faster browser any day…
i don’t like how they used “want least”, it means three very different things:
- i want this but it’s not the thing i want the most
- i don’t care for this
- oh god fuck no
That’s why they did it in sets of three. They could just give every user a blank text box for every option, but doing it this way makes it far easier to analyze the data in bulk.
yea, but that gives you less info
this way, you can’t really differentiate from a feature that people want, but not as a priority, VS a feature that people don’t want ever
And there’s no way to relate preference between features, at least in my case. I had one question that I entered “2x faster performance” as most want, and the next question was “2x slower performance,” but there was another crappy option in the same list that I also don’t want, so if I don’t pick “2x slower performance” as least want, what signal does that send?
I hope it all comes out in the wash, but honestly, I would’ve preferred a big list of all of the features with 4 options:
- really want
- want
- meh
- don’t want
I think I would’ve entered about even numbers of things for each category. They could even limit “really want” to top three or something.
It makes the survey easier to complete by users in small steps. Huge surveys scare users away.
The survey design accounts for this. See https://lemm.ee/comment/13835466.
Everyone’s here complaining about the randomised questions when I’m just curious why location options are “Germany”, " Brazil", “USA”, or " Somewhere we don’t care about".
Yeah wtf going on there, what’s Germany, Brazil and USA got the rest of us don’t?
Privacy law considerations. Germany is downright good for its citizens. The US has a round about spying industry. Brazil basically has mandatory mass surveilance. Everyone else’s laws are more or less the same. Not identical. But Mozilla can meet their requirements pretty trivially
Everyone else’s laws are more or less the same.
The EU and UK have almost identical privacy laws - the GDPR, so Germany having exceptional privacy laws doesn’t hold up. As far as other privacy laws go I think France has a lead on Germany with approximately the same population, so privacy law can’t be the main consideration.
Those are simply the most significant Firefox user bases.
Things I want from Firefox/Mozilla, in no particular order:
- Just hire the uBlock Origin guy, Chrome doesn’t want him
- Dissolve the Mozilla Corporation, start a Patreon or whatever
- Foxkeh plushie
I am willing to compromise on the “unreasonable” ones 🦊
This the most blizzare survey I have ever seen. What is even happening?
When looking for a new web browser, which feature would you prefer most and which would you prefer least?
- A color palette that matches Danny DeVito’s armpit hair.
- Play the theme to Annie at startup.
- Take up all computer resources.
I don’t want any of those. Can’t we just have a browser that filters all of the popups, junk and advertising?
Nope. You can’t progress through the survey without picking one thing you really don’t want and at least one of two things you couldn’t give a shit less about.
This one was kinda oof
Oh. I had different sets. I had all 3 options but not against each other. So it seems they’re randomized.
Edit: hadn’t read the other replies. People have already figured that out, it seems.
They needed to have something that might be less appealing than an AI assistant
You’d rather have yours twice as slow than a feature you could probably disable? Weird blind hate ngl
I think that’s a good way of measuring “bullshit” in tge surver. The only problem is that you get just one of these questionnaires and a bunch of other questions for the entire survey
I dont want any AI built into my browser. The speed would not be that noticeable anyway as it is quite fast rn.
The survey is broken on Firefox for Android. The first set of most wanted and least wanted statements doesn’t let me set an answer for all 3. As soon as I set an answer for the 3rd statement it clears the answer for my first statement.
I don’t think you understood the assignment friend.
That’s working as intended. The survey won’t accept you wanting two things most or least. You can pick one you want most, one you want least, and the unselected option is the one you have the weakest opinion on.
That isn’t a break. They are forcing you rank them by most, least, and between.
Of each set of 3, you can only have one marked as most wanted and one marked as least wanted. You will leave one statement blank.
You Should reach out to them and let them know of this glitch.
I took the survey and I didn’t like how they occasionally put all shitty features in a group and I had to pick one I wanted and then followed it with all good stuff in a group and I had to say I didn’t want one.
I wonder what percentage of people chose “Least important” for “Do you want another fucking annoying pointless AI assistant?”
I hope all of them. If you use firefox you are probably in the minority that has at peast some idea of how unnecessary those are.
from this comment and the reply, I’m guessing at least 3.
I hope like hell the sets of questions were randomized, because if they weren’t, they were tweaked by the surveyors beforehand to try and force a particular result.
Like the AI question was paired with some incredibly crappy options like “A browser that runs 2x slower than your current browser”. Obviously they want you to click that option as least wanted and leave the AI development alone (if that wasn’t a randomized grouping).
Similarly, it looked like they were trying to decide which feature to sacrifice in support of AI dev in later questions, because all 3 would be things I enjoy much more than AI, but I have to rate one as least wanted.
This survey is very confusing
My conference in Mozilla is now almost zero
It was randomised for me because the 2x slower option didn’t appear with any AI questions for me
They were randomized.
For me ‘2x slower’ was not paired with any AI.My 2x slower was paired with the 2x faster 🤣 guess which one I chose?
