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!

    The better approach would be to prepare the update in the background and swap out the version on the next start

        I’m on Windows and I don’t recall the last time I was inconvenienced by a Firefox update. Like… I can’t even remember what it actually does. OP must be running it on a potato or something.

          I think they mean when you go to open Firefox (when it updates) it immediately closes and reopens the first time? At least mine does that.

        I thought it did too, but this post says it’s different? Maybe they’re wrong. I haven’t double checked.

          I think Firefox works like Chrome does here. Both give me a little notice in the menu that a new version is ready, and Chrome is a little more annoying about it (turns yellow, then red). I need both for work, and I much prefer how Firefox does it.

            What I noticed – I turned on my 💻, opened Firefox then Firefox was updating. It was fast. So it hasn’t been annoying so far.
