So installed the Firefox update today on my Chromebook, and oddly it completely broke Firefox. Wouldn't go to ANY website anymore. Just set there "looking up ..." Blew away my entire .mozilla folder and re-imported my settings and all was well, but really odd. Didn't happen with ANY of my other machines (2 Arch installs & a Neon install), only the GalliumOS (Neon) on the Chromebook.
At any rate, it's working again just fine now. Just thought it was weird that it did that.

I have to say, the configuration of Firefox after the new profile is MASSIVELY different. The "recommended by pocket" or whatever is completely gone, so clean and attractive of a start page. If that's intentional by Firefox, then WELL DONE...
