Why can't I get Firefox Focus for my PC?????
I want to have the privacy functions of Focus. Why don't you provide them for desktop computers? When do you plan on doing so? (If you don't plan on doing so I see no reason to continue using Firefox at all.)

Hi, I guess you gotta do what you have to do. Since Firefox for Desktop you can install all sorts of Extensions for Privacy there is no need for Focus. Firefox has built in Private Browsing from the 3 Bar Menu or Right click a URL. Adblockers that are very hearty and block sometimes to much but can learn and these extensions have all the functionality of using Focus :
