    I don't know how recent this change is but I noticed #Firefox removed https:// from the address bar so now every link and every website I visit looks insecure. I know there is a padlock icon next to the address bar but it doesn't seem quite as easily scannable to me.

    @Gargron They actually do the opposite now (just like safari did for years): encryption is now the default, and it’s showing a big warning when https is not supported

      @Gargron it’s a little shield on the iOS version and I’m pretty happy with that. I’m sure I get a warning if I go to a site without a certificate too, that is http:// is notified, not https:// these days of ubiquitous encryption

            @Gargron agreed. 100%! This is a bad UI change.

                @Gargron When you place the cursor at the left side of the url so you can pasted in "archive.is/" it mangles it now.
