Rule:

If your OS is macOS, it's the application's fault.

If your OS is Linux, it's your OS's fault.

Is this sarcasm or a reference to something I'm missing?
MacOS seems to have a lot of apologists. Linux seems to have a lot of haters. If you haven't observed this to be the case, then it probably doesn't make sense. But it does seem to line up with what I've seen.
{MacOS,Linux} seems to have a lot of {apologists,haters}.

There, fixed that (with a bashism) for you.

I used FF all day on Sequoia

The headline should probably say FF with special firewall rules most people never use

After the upgrade a default firewall rule was added to block all traffic from Firefox. Running /usr/libexec/ApplicationFirewall/socketfilterfw --add /Applications/Firefox.app adds a rule to allow it and the app works as normal.
Doesn't explain why it sometimes works sometimes doesn't though?
I've got this after updating to Sequoia today as well, weird behaviour as Firefox network traffic will randomly stop working for a few minutes, then work again.
