I will never understand how this machine behaves and why the matters addressed always requires some kind of technical approach that always misses the very matter at hand.
This time an obviously necessary function disappeared. The "back"- function has to be presented as it was, since the pages visited does not always allow backing. When giving feedback, the "submit"- button did not work.
I am exposed to large amounts of text that makes no real sense, as if the internet preceeded the playing of a real musical instrument, or as if the standards for typewriters suddenly had become obsolete.
The information given is either requiring the understanding of principles never really mentioned, or "user friendly" in a manner that supposes that I have no idea on how a "power on- off"- button works and the like.
Never heard of a "technical retard"? That's me, and you!

Answer 1

Greetings.
Now - Nobody is obligated to speak in your manner of speech.
Language is to be universal and easily accessible at which point you take a personal preference approach.
Its much like getting food. If you can't approach your supplier in a manner that he understand you he can not be held accountable for your lack of communication skills. Yes he may decide to invest and market to you in your specific way but thats not an obligation.
As for the back button.
I suppose you mean the drop down menu.
It is accessible with right-click on the back/forward button.
If you want the old interface specifically you can get that back with this:

And even if you don't mean that there are plenty of add-ons you could consider to achieve your goal whatever that may be.
Now, it is technically impossible for the default package to satisfy every user. That is why Firefox is open source. That is why its has a huge user base. That is why there are tremendous amounts of additional, optional functionality. So every user can tailor his Browser experience to satisfaction. It is the most versatile browser on the planet, instead of complaining that the default package doesn't suit your outlook of the world you might as well put a little effort and use what is already available to achieve that desired effect. And if you think the information and program base is somehow lacking. You can like millions of other join the project and collaborate, create, improve, help, share and create a new a better Firefox experience for everyone.
And there is no such thing as technical retards. There are mainly people who refuse to learn or conform to specific standards. You seem to be capable of speaking properly, so unless you have brain damage you are perfectly capable of delivering alternative phrasing that is more accessible to others if you wanted to.
