Ok I understand, https://aur.archlinux.org/login/ is an insecure web site, since the issue mentioned by the OP happens with this login. However, for my taste it's not a problem to select the user name, but this history problem is an issue for me, as well as the safebrowsing that gets added, even if you removed it. Some of many issues, that are reason for me to use other web browsers. Could you explain what's actually insecure with https://aur.archlinux.org/login/ ? It's a https page, not a http page.
I cannot, in fact, explain what is insecure about https://aur.archlinux.org/login/ but this is probably because it works perfectly for me...
You are dreaming. Please wake up.
The history once upon a time worked as the history still works for nearly any other browser. Fortunately there are other browsers we could chose and a lot of people migrated to other browsers. It's not an unrelated rant, since the OP dislikes two changes, I try to explain that many users discontinued using Firefox. By the pulseaudio thread I already mentioned other firefox based and firefox alike projects. That web browser developers go different ways in general is not only an issue for firefox, that's why there's vivaldi ;).
Yes, please let's answer the OP by telling him to find an alternative browser. Thanks for clearing that up, I was *wondering* what your post was getting at. :)
However, in regards to security firefox would be the last browser I would use. Java script settings were removed

So, I wonder why Firefox is in a "preferred" registry (extra), while Opera is in "community" and Vivaldi is in "aur". As far as I can see, Vivaldi is an Opera clone. I cannot see, how to replace Google as a search engine in Opera - what about in Vivaldi? Kind regards Peter
