Well, you can't view or print a file without downloading it.
That shouldn't happen, I've just set Homepage > Opening screen to last tab and when I open firefox it defaults to the last tab that I was on before exiting the browser
Iirc its just setting browser.download.open_pdf_attachments_inline to true at about:config
Honestly, after this latest stunt by Google and Brave's growing list of issues, I recently switched to Firefox myself. It was actually surprisingly less painful than it was switching from Chrome to Brave.
Give Vivaldi a try, it's a chromium fork but with a strong focus on privacy.
Fair enough, you have an opinion, that firefox is wrong in everything it does, it's not valid, but you need to learn the defaults. Be well.
That's not what they are saying though. A lot of this is configurable for a reason.
I don't think that they do. They have see. They don't like the defaults and it's their right to change them. That's the whole point of configurable FOSS ffs.
