I really can’t stand their skewed priorities in contrast to the state of Firefox.
Skewed priorities like trying to make sure that Firefox continues to exist even with the massive amount of competition in the browser space and everything being taken over by chromium. Yeah. Definitely skewed priorities.
naah, I like mozilla while they aren’t perfect but they are on our side in my opinion
covert monopoly with g**gle
they get paid billions of dollars and all you have to do is switch default search engines win win if you really hate it DONATE TO MOZILLA
I think it’s just people who don’t want to switch to Firefox who say that. They know they SHOULD be using Firefox, but if Mozilla takes Google money, then that must mean Firefox is just as bad as Chrome, so I can keep using Chrome.
You can apply that same mental gymnastics to understand so many things. Don’t want to do anything to combat global warming, well those “climate extremists” are awful, so they can’t be right about this. And aren’t vegans super annoying? Yeah, that’s right, that is why I can keep eating meat.
Don’t ever listen to these kinds of people. They refuse to take responsibility for anything.
It takes nearly as long to decrapify a new Firefox install as it does to compile Librewolf.
Install uBlock.
Tell Firefox that you don’t want to sync at the moment.
Disable “sponsored” stories. AKA, listicles designed to draw in idiots who want to see which 8 child actors from the 90s turned out to be the tallest. Alarmingly close to the tacky crap that you might see on a fresh Windows install.
Tell Firefox that you don’t want to sync at the moment.
Now disable Pocket. Remembering to go into about:config to really disable it
Disable telemetry.
Tell Firefox that you don’t want to sync at the moment.
Remove Amazon, Bing, et al. from the search engine list.
Remove “suggested” and “sponsored” autocomplete.
Tell Firefox that you don’t want to sync at the moment.
Remind yourself that, despite this crap, Firefox is still a better browser than any Chromium knockoff.
It’s not a bad thing that Firefox is doing little things to attract a broader audience, luckily you don’t set it up very often and sync is there to use.
except it is like making it so things can just download without asking so you can go to a webpage and it just downloads stuff automatically which is really insecure but hey chrome does it that way so mozilla just oh so obviously has to copy them yeah you can fix it but that should in no way be the default
Please download some punctuation.
