Super frustrating the AI Chatbots are infecting my Firefox browser now. It looks like malware and pretty much acts like it since it cannot be disabled from the sidebar outside of closing this window. I like vertical tabs, but they require so many other options by default. Even more frustrating that the URL goes to a chrome browser link: chrome://browser/content/genai/chat.html

Alarms very heightened.

    Yeah it can be quite aggressive with visual elements to fool fingerprinting tactics, but you can change to a different fork if it’s something critical to you :)

      Yeah, I personally turn some of the fingerprinting protection stuff off to get faster refresh rates. That’s the only downside for me, but I understand why it’s default locked at 60Hz.
