I always find it interesting that users who consume free IT services and software have such petty complaints. Maybe start contributing to the ecosystem/community instead of downloading updates the day of and providing useless feedback and ratings.
My phone's back button isn't even displayed by default. It is not a place on the screen where I can click, without doing some dance to bring it up. Also, why are you simping for Firefox? What an odd thing to lust over.
How do you go back in any other app then? Hell if you don't use gestures but do use a nav bar that's too cumbersome to bring up then how do you close em for that matter? And what are you "simping" for since chrome doesn't have it either to my knowledge?
The lack of a fixed back button on the phone just sucks. I alwats have to make random gestures until it appears, hoping I don't accidentally click on something. I just want a browser with a basic, non-fucked UI.
Having more than one way of accessing a function in a program is usually not a bad thing (there are limits to this, of course), especially when one of those ways is universal across devices with varying input schemes. While outdated and bordering on esoteric, take Amazon FirePhone for example - no back button, hard or soft. Gestures only, unless you stuff CM on it, as I did. Also allows for some degree of redundancy - physical buttons wear out, and the location of soft buttons near the edge of a touch scree

I would happily pay for a good browser! And that's not hypothetical. I still have my receipt/license for Netscape Navigator.
And these aren't petty complaints: a browser without a back button is fundamentally broken.
