Firefox 65 is rolling out for desktop (Linux, macOS, Windows) and Android users. Firefox 65 comes with a new interface which allows for easy access of the Content Blocking section. There is a new small “i” icon right in the address bar that gives you access content blocking settings easily. Firefox 65 also brings AV1 video compression support for Windows users, and further improves task manager to track extensions and slow tabs for optimum browsing experience.
The redesigned Content Blocking Section comes with Firefox 65, and it can now be accessed in two ways – by clicking on the small “i” icon in the address bar, going to Content Blocking and then clicking on the gear on the right side, and alternatively you can also head to Preferences > Privacy & Security > Content Blocking. Content Blocking offers three options: Standard, Strict, and Custom. The latter offers more control to pick and choose what trackers and cookies you want to block.
The Task Manager feature has also been revamped and updated to offer holistic results on usage of memory, tabs, and add-ons. This page can be accessed by typing about:performance in the address bar, and it gives you a possible cause as to why a specific site is taking so long to load. You can download Firefox 65 for Android users here and Desktop users here.
