    Can we please stop with the browser bloat? This is something that should be a plug-in, not a kitchen sink feature.

    I bought an 4.7 rated amplifier on Amazon that broke the first day. Looking at the reviews closer, I noticed they were 100% paid reviewers.

    When I tried to leave a negative review, Amazon stopped me, giving a generic message about fake reviews on this product. This product is still out their with a high rating and no way for actual purchasers like me to warn other customers.

    So how much do I have to pay to boost the Fakespot rating of my product listing?

    Good. But remember when Firefox was supposed to be a lean alternative to other browsers? I remember.

      I do not, please inform me, since as far as I know Firefox was always trying to be featurefull browser.

        please inform me

        Mozilla Application Suite contained an email client and a HTML editor, among other things. Firefox was supposed to “just a browser”, so to speak:

        Firefox was created in 2002 under the code name “Phoenix” by members of the Mozilla community who desired a standalone browser rather than the Mozilla Application Suite bundle.

        https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firefox

        According to the downvotes, hardly anyone remembers, even Mozilla is falling for feature creep again.
