@thomholwerda "chrome://"? Is that correct? Firefox isn't Chromium.

@jackemled
apparently, in the firefox context, “browser chrome” refers to user interface elements

@jackemled
but i’ll admit, it’s not a 100% satisfying explanation. the url form chrome:// seems to have a wider set of functions than just in relation to interface elements

@jackemled @thomholwerda chrome has been a thing way before the browser came out its used for UI customization

@zyx @thomholwerda Firefox is not Chromium. It's a completely different engine.
