This is why we all need to rally around Firefox (or Librewolf, or Waterfox, or whatever fork you prefer) and make sure that sacred goose is never tampered with.
Somebody who has already made their money needs to fork the thing and put it into an actual public service nonprofit, rather than another creepy branch of the nonprofit-military-industrial complex. Not somebody whose CEO came from Voice of America, WeWork, Wikipedia, Northrop-Grumman, the NSA or some bank, talking about how much they need to innovate and create strategic partnerships. Instead, get somebody who wants to make and maintain a safe, minimal, light, modular browser that works exclusively for its user, and whose components can be easily be included in other projects.

Mozilla has made announcements regarding transforming Firefox into an AI-heavy browser and have started alienating longtime open-source supporters
Massive salaries paid to Mozilla Foundation executives.
Firefox is a joke because it's no longer a users browser. Rather than it just being a browser it's now a VPN, Ai and other.
I give it two years before it starts shoving advertisements.
Stop getting your news from corporate propaganda and the outrage mob.
I'm not sure how the new AI stuff works as I never enabled it, but apparently that's there, too.
Mate, It's even bundled with FreeBSD releases which is as far from corporate propaganda and outrageous mob you can get. I use FreeBSD.
With every new install of firefox requires you have to remove: sponsored content and news from tabs, Pocket. It asks you if you desire to use Mozilla Ai and many other Mozilla third party shite.
So maybe it should be you who needs to open their eyes. Reformat your OS and reinstall Firefox and then tell me it doesn't come with shite.
These buttons get a little bit more darker to where the buttons are so little they hide. Hidden in obscure locations wasting my time to get on with my day.
