What’s up with Firefox?

It might be because it's running without you knowing about it? Preferences > Enable multi-process is checked for me.

Still doesn't work in a number of situations like if you have a touch screen.

You must be running Windows. I'm the Mozilla developer who is responsible for that. You'll get e10s on touchscreen in version 52.

(I just clicked the reply button to you using my touch screen on e10s. This is Fedora 25, on Wayland -- Firefox is using XWayland.)

I think this is a Win8 problem. https://wiki.mozilla.org/Electrolysis#Schedule

I don't believe that I have that option at all here (Firefox 51.0 on Fedora 25).

This is kinda confusing, but that button only exists in Nightly and Developer builds. Here's how to check, enable, and force-enable it for regular builds: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Electrolysis#Testing
