I get the sentiment but that is in no fashion a way to move forward.
yes it is known that not being wholsome = not being communist.
I’m genuinely unsurprised my previous comment got removed but anyway at least thanks for answering and providing an example.
Most of the revenue of Mozilla Corporation comes from Google (81% in 2022[2]) in exchange of making it the default search engine in Firefox.

Other issues I have with Firefox is the telemetry bits, the way they handle some of their employees (laying one guy off because he has cancer), the lack of meaningful updates and features in the last decade, CEO granting herself a nice pay rise after doing well nothing really. The list goes on and on honestly.
Don’t get me wrong, you should still use Firefox or a Firefox derived browser if you care about a free internet. I myself use firefox (although I just switched to Zen browser on my PC which is based on Firefox). However we shouldn’t be blind ourselves just because we hate anything google based and/or closed sourced. Firefox is still back by a for profit company which is, as I quoted earlier, backed at least by 80% by google.
For the positive side now it seems that in the last 2-3 months firefox has been pumping out meaningful updates (even on mobile). Things seem to be taking a positive turn recently and I’m actually a bit excited to see where firefox is going to go from here.

I didn’t even know about that they always come up with a new thing.
Wait until you see femaledatingstrategy then.
I don’t want to let go of my poor Vivaldi it’s a blast of a browser

Net what?
Went to France but unfortunately too many French people :/
There’s a lot of other shit but it seems that it’s organically sorting itself out over time.
They’re so predictable it’s a meme at this point. Shame though, good communities and some good people on .ml I have to proceed on a case by case with them
wow I’m offended but you are right
I haven’t slept in 24hrs and honestly I don’t get the hate. Just use gnome default and it works that’s it. no need to customise just use as is and doesn’t break.
They’re 80% dependent on google there is no choice. Mozilla’s behaviour since they got the google deal was the begining of the end. I honestly believe that due to Mozilla’s current leadership it would be best for open source developers to all refocus on the ladybird project. I don’t have any affiliation to that project and I understand how huge of an undertaking it is to build a web engine from scratch but the gecko engine is polluted by the Mozilla’s execs and by extension Google.
To make it clear Google controls Firefox by, in practice, owning an 80% share of Mozilla.
