Firefox is a good example of "either you die a hero or live long enoigh to see yourself become the villian"
It's also an example of a smaller company trying fight a mega Corp with infinite money, gained via unethical means.
People are shitting on Firefox while ignoring what they are up against.
I have no solution for their funding issue, what are they supposed to do? Charge for the browser or ads? There's literally no other alternative and I don't know what the solution is.
What I do know is that once FF dies and chrome fully owns the web we are well and truly fucked.
Honesty it might already be too late.
They could try asking for donations, while getting rid of the massive drains on their budget.

If AI mustt exist it should be in places where the general public cannot access nor interact with it
Firefox does run better when you disable all "ml.chat" settings.
