Lots of mention about popular dials, home page etc. But the one thing i need and miss from old opera is fixed dials. Im not interested in recent dials or popular dials, i need dials for websites that are obscure and difficult to remember but are crucial. Even sites i might only go to only once in a while. But thats the point. They are there that i can see and readily acessible. And without trawling through reams of bookmarks. I solve this in desktop with a great add-on from eversync. But this is blocked from working in android version. Just a pity ff doesnt have this feature natively.

It is up to extension authors to support different versions of Firefox.

You can pin sites to the home screen, https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/pin-sites-firefox-android-start-screen

Sorry I disagree. It is a basic requirement for a GOOD browser. That it why it was invented and used by old opera. FF for desktop also has this problem and lack of fixable dials, but at least addons do work that supplement this feature. FF for android blocks the same addons from working. It should not be left to add-on developers to provide for a solution for the basic inadequacy of a program like a browser. Incidentally the link / info you provided is old and out of date. FF and even Nightly do not support or include 'pin sites' to home screen.

So we are left with the worse than useless features of recent / most popular tabs. (if a site has been used recently then I dont always need to use it again) If im checking a news site daily then maybe, but if I need my favorite train line web page or other site I use 'occasionally' but still want to find easily then fixed dials are the only way. My desktop has about thirty and beautifully synced by an add on. A feature that should be integral to a good browser. Pity that FF cannot see the wisdom in making this important useful feature an integral part of its core instead of the pointless 'popular or recent' tabs.
