      At least this is opt-in, and Firefox still allows for manifest v3 extensions, and, on the whole, isn’t using a engine funded by a billion dollar company that’s doing everything in it’s power to spy on you.

        If you are so keen to know, then you will just have to wait a few more years. Firefoxes development is rapidly derailing into nonsense recently. They will have to either kick out their current leadership or they will be reduced to a data sucking, adware company sooner or later.

          Oh yes, as opposed to Google or Microsoft who definitely aren’t already data-sucking, predatory adware companies. No thanks, I’ll stick with the lesser evil.

          If you’re going to lie to everyone at least make it sound believable.

            Do you read any tech news? If so how did u miss every single mozilla headline of the past months? Something being the lesser evil doesnt turn truths into lies.

              You’ve read the articles? Cool, can you give me a rundown of all the terrible things Mozilla has done in the past months?

              So you admit you’re only reading headlines and base your opinion on it?

              Did the thought cross your mind that all the billion dollar companies behind for-profit browsers might have an interest in Firefox failing?
