I have a new chromebook (Lenova Duet 3) I can install and use Firefox. I have had Dashlane (password keeper) working fine with Firefox for years. The Dashlane extensions work with Chrome, but I can't seem to get them to work with Frefox. The Chrome search engines choices are limited; ones that I never use with Firefox. Is there something in the Chromebook environment that limits firefox capabilities? (Am I looking for something that just is not possible?) Is there a work around? (Any Linux tricks?) I also have asked the same question of Dashlane, but have not heard back yet. My imperfect solution is use Chrome when it is a known website, and the password is recorded with Dashlane, and to use Firefox for new searches, where the choice of search engines is better.

Has anyone developed a search engine where there are no "sponsored" results. I understand that it would probably not be free.

Problem resolved. The Firefox app was originally installed via Google Play Store. I uninstalled the original, then reinstalled using the linux terminal. Everything is working fine. Instructions for linux were found a website called Dignited and were very simple and straight forward.

Hi

Are you using the Linux or Android version of Firefox?

If you are using the Linux version, you can install the Dashlane add-on from:

https://www.dashlane.com/extension/standalone

I hope that this helps.

Speaking of search engine choices, this site https://mycroftproject.com/ has a lot of options.
