Very unfortunate development, which seems par for the course from Mozilla these days.

I'm jumping ship. Which browser would y'all recommend at this point? Preferably something I can get on android as well as linux.

I said it before but they are really excelling at alienating their users in (failed) attempts at attracting new ones.

It pains me to see, I don't want to use chromium, but there is a limit...

I just found out about this on mobile firefox must be quite new too. That default opt in is really disgusting.

That a way yo beat dead internet theory. Get IA hallucinate the web you browse and no need to webbrowser to have internet access.

Over to Waterfox then.

I don't care if there is a way to 'disable it' (there won't be) - if it's there, it not on my PC.

I've been using Firefox for longer than i can remember. That said, I'm ready to make the leap if necessary. What's the next browser to succeed Firefox? Suggestions??

[–] pupbiru@aussie.zone 11 points 3 days ago (1 children)

imo anything firefox-based until servo or ladybird matures

i use waterfox, i know a lot of people use librewolf

remember that switching to anything chromium (like vivaldi, brave) still gives google power. on web standards at least, mozilla still fights for us (and is arguably the only one protecting us from shit like putting tracking stabdards directly into the web spec)

I'll consider using Mozilla once Anthony Enzor-DeMeo is fired or fucks off.

My decision has been rammed through in the exact same uncaring and unilateral way that Tony wants to ram AI down Mozilla users throats.
