Upon launch, Firefox 83 displays essentially a full-page ad for Pocket, with a tiny link at the bottom (have to scroll to it) to get the release notes for “what else” is new in Firefox.
So all kinds of significant enhancements in 83, including HTTPS mode, might essentially be missed by most users. (Heck, I only knew because of this HN post.)
Why do programs insist on “hijacking” things? Release notes seem particularly vulnerable to this, e.g. iPhone apps love to have “notes” that don’t actually tell you anything at all, just marketing-speak.
