Rules
While we are not an official Mozilla community, we have adopted the Mozilla Community Participation Guidelines as far as it can be applied to a bin.
Rules
-
Always be civil and respectful
Don't be toxic, hostile, or a troll, especially towards Mozilla employees. This includes gratuitous use of profanity. -
Don't be a bigot
No form of bigotry will be tolerated. -
Don't post security compromising suggestions
If you do, include an obvious and clear warning. -
Don't post conspiracy theories
Especially ones about nefarious intentions or funding. If you're concerned: Ask. Please don’t fuel conspiracy thinking here. Don’t try to spread FUD, especially against reliable privacy-enhancing software. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Show credible sources. -
Don't accuse others of shilling
Send honest concerns to the moderators and/or admins, and we will investigate. -
Do not remove your help posts after they receive replies
Half the point of asking questions in a public sub is so that everyone can benefit from the answers—which is impossible if you go deleting everything behind yourself once you've gotten yours.

MODERATORS
They seem very confused. They say it's available for everyone with one click and they also say it's rolling out gradually.
If you're a technical user and you don't have it, does that mean they're testing it on the rubes first? If so, what does that say about their intentions?
I see
but that doesn't say it's available to everyone?
Yeah I don't see where to make that single click.
Right, presumably because it's not available to everyone yet, as they say in the post?
And yet, that contradicts the claims they also make that it's available to everyone. Even the topic title, which, depending on how you access Lemmy, might show right above this text (at least that's how it appears for me).
So they announced a feature that isn't available to everyone, and they do say that, but they also say it is. So why say anything at all? Or say it when it is available?
Can you quote the exact line that you interpret as saying that it's available to everyone? Because again, I don't see it. The title I see is "A free VPN you can trust, now built into Firefox", i.e. with no mention of "everyone".
Usually, they just say it's rolling out, because some people will be getting it (i.e. they can't say nothing), but they don't know when everybody will yet, because that depends on how well the rollout to the first people goes.
