Firefox plan to show ads and shopping in the near future in the browser as an opt-out

First focusing on AI and now this, already cancelled my donations, do we have a good fork to move to?

The problem is Mozilla started thinking about itself as a company, with its massive revenue from Google.

It isn’t. Firefox was most alive and most growing when it was still a grassroots initiative to build a better web browser.

When they go back to that - or someone forks and creates a charity with one sole focus (a great browser) I’ll start supporting them. I just don’t think Mozilla needs this size of org to build a better browser and and now they’re trying to do a bunch a crap I’m not interested in to justify their org size. They’ve got it back to front.

And I say this as a lifelong Firefox user.
