> Normally, the fact that practically nobody actually uses Firefox would mean it's not a huge problem.

I assume you mean "practically nobody without an adblocker". I dread the day we could have to live without Firefox. Don't dismiss it like that, please.

I'm sorry, but it's not my fault that Firefox only has 4% market share in the world. Mozilla dismissed themselves.

I'm pretty sure the primary driver of that was Google turning Chrome into shovelware bundled with Adobe Flash and marketing it aggressively.

Cuz Firefox was in such a strong position before Google came around, right.

Mozilla has never been a competitive company. They've always leaned heavily on the illusion of being a non-profit. They've always sold the "eat your vegetables" version of web browsing, without actually offering anything compelling over the competition. We're just expected to use Firefox because "it's made by not-Google".

Firefox was in fact in a stronger position before Google turned Chrome into shovelware, yes.

I came from another post to see your commenting style. You use “in fact” a lot without supporting your statement lmao.

You were clearly the issue in the other thread.
