    well today's #FreeSoftwareAdvent is a bit bittersweet.Back at the beginning of the month, I plotted all the projects on my remind(1) calendar, grouping various categories together. Two days ago, lynx¹, yesterday was Dillo², and today it was supposed to be #Firefox. Yet this week has been full of sad Firefox news, with them ignoring users' desires to keep AI rubbish out of the browser (or at least relegated to an optional plugin)The browser that I started using as Netscape, grew to be Communicator, that kinda became Phoenix, then shed the non-browser functions off to Thunderbird (already got mentioned³) and became Firefox. Despite the rise of Chromium/Chrome, I still use Firefox as my daily driver web-browser for the modern web (rather than the *pleasant* web where lynx & Dillo serve me much better).What used to be a "User Agent" has become something that no longer puts the *user* first. 😢 So in this time of wishes and gifts, I wish that the Firefox leadership team would take a strong look at what they're doing and change their course.⸻¹ https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/@gumnos/115735221496156078² https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/@gumnos/115740808963678498³ https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/@gumnos/115684337296307283

    The irony 🫣 : #Firefox of all projects in the world should absolutely know better when it comes to browsers NOT adding bloat and becoming "a broader ecosystem of trusted software".

    #Mozilla promotes the head of #Firefox to become the #CEO of Mozilla, and everyone loses their shit. 1. He said some people like #AI and some don't. 2. All #browser #OEMs are all in on AI.3. Isn't this just Mozilla copying #Google, that turned out well. 4. Contrary to popular belief, Firefox has done some really good things in the past year. 5. People will always find a way to moan about Mozilla and by extension Firefox.

    Does anyone know how to get the feed of news suggested by #Firefox? I saw an interesting new, and I told myself "I'll open it later". Then after less than an hour I opened a new tab but couldn't find that suggestion anymore
