Anything you say or do on Firefox may be used by Mozilla against you. You have the right to use a different browser. If you cannot find a browser that doesn’t fuck you over one way or another, one will not be provided for you because capitalism is working exactly as designed.

    @aral@mastodon.ar.al I don’t quite understand the hate of Firefox, was their update directly at your sentiment? Mozilla is a nonprofit and they’re of course not going to be perfect but they’re kind of the last game in town since Google took over all the browser backends? I see a lot of “go to librewolf” but would they have enough support to maintain the browser if FF died?

      @maniajack@mastodon.world Mozilla is a not-for-profit that owns a half-a-billion dollar a year for-profit that gets its half-a-billion dollars a year from Google.

      Or, as their head of public policy once told me: “Why are you being so hard on us? We’re just another Silicon Valley tech company.”
