Today Mozilla updated their Firefox browser to version 110, where in this version there are a number of improvements and improvements that are presented, one of which is an upgrade imported data from several other browsers, dedicated GPU Sanboxing for Windows and a number of additional security enhancements.
We discussed a little, to improve the Data Import itself, now users can Import Bookmarks, History and Passwords not only from Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome, but from other Chromium browsers such as Opera, Opera GX, Vivaldi, Brave and others.
Also, specifically for Firefox on Windows, GPU Sandboxing is now provided by default, along with GPU-accelerated Canvas2D which is also provided by Default on Mac and Linux.
In general, there are quite a lot of improvements presented in this browser, although there are indeed no new features that users will generally use, for more details, maybe you can see the following Firefox 110 changelog:
- It’s now possible to import bookmarks, history and passwords not only from Edge, Chrome or Safari but also from Opera, Opera GX, and Vivaldi for all the folks who want to move over to Firefox instead!
- GPU sandboxing has been enabled on Windows.
Note: A bug in the popular X-Mouse Button Control (XMBC) tool may cause mouse wheel scrolling to stop working. The author(s) are working on an update. Meanwhile, scrolling can be restored by reconfiguring XMBC: either disable the Make scroll wheel scroll window under cursor option in the global settings, or enable the Disable scroll window under cursor option if using a custom profile for Firefox. - On Windows, third-party modules can now be blocked from injecting themselves into Firefox, which can be helpful if they are causing crashes or other undesirable behavior.
- Date, time, and datetime-local input fields can now be cleared with Cmd + Backspace and Cmd + Delete shortcut on macOS and Ctrl + Backspace and Ctrl + Delete on Windows and Linux.
- GPU-accelerated Canvas2D is enabled by default on macOS and Linux.
- WebGL performance improvement on Windows, MacOS and Linux.
- Enables overlay of hardware-decoded video with non-Intel GPUs on Windows 10/11, improving video playback performance and video scaling quality.
- Various security fixes.
- Firefox now supports CSS named pages, allowing web pages to perform per-page layout and add page-breaks in a declarative manner when printing.
- Firefox now supports CSS size container queries, see the MDN page for documentation on this feature.
Apart from that friends, the Colorways theme in Firefox has now been officially removed, but you can still get this theme via the page Add-ons for you to download manually.
So, have you downloaded this version? if not, you can just slide to the Menu > Help > About Firefox page to download the update manually.
