Ffs, i dont know what browser to use anymore.
Firefox forcing native ai tools down our troath is just too nasty.
Librewolf being so anti ai, using claude in it freezes the page and they seem unwilling to fix it.
Thanks for posting, but people will find something else stupid to complain about, because there is pretty obviously a storm of propaganda against Firefox, which I very much suspect is driven by interests that are against an open and free internet.
Blocking these features may calm some people, but in reality, none of these features were used for anything unless specifically used by the user. So the claim of it making Firefox slower or using more resources or being used for telemetry were all outright lies.
A sentiment is tried to be created that Firefox is just as bad as Chrome, Edge, Brave and Safari when nothing could be further from the truth. But even people who consider themselves IT savvy are falling for it. 🙁
Interestingly these attacks on Firefox coincide with Chrome getting steadily worse, forcing Googles own standards and preventing plugins that block advertising, while reducing functionality for Firefox on Google/Alphabet owned sites.
I don't think the proliferation of bad press is anything other than a chronicle of the decline of Firefox.
I've been ride or die with Firefox since early, and I've never daily driven Chrome. But I've had to keep Chrome installed to look at the sites that don't play with FF. Little by little, FF get's worse, and most of the "worst" these days are features, not bugs. Though their are plenty of bugs. They certainly deserve praise for keeping faith with ublock. And I appreciate that they respect privacy more than Alphabet.
I want Mozilla to succeed. I just remember when Mozilla made the case with the quality of their software, rather than the quality of their ethics.
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
