    Mozilla's core value proposition was trust. They weren't Google. They weren't going to sell you out. They even listened to feedback sometimes. Now their destroying all that is left of that value by going all in on adtech and the A.I. bubble for a short term cash grab. But the A.I. cash will dry up and the trust will stay gone. And who's gonna pay for a V.P.N. subscription, email forwarding service or any other "privacy" add-on run by a company they've learned not to trust?#mozilla #firefox #AI

    @nlarson830 @jbz : Yeah, I'm guessing if Firefox were to block ad-blockers they'd see an overall revenue drop.

    @yoasif E2EE, until your password for Firefox Accounts gets compromised (anyone with the FxA password can decrypt your sync key stored in Mozilla's servers. Even if their device is not synced and the account has no synced devices). And knowing that many people will still reuse their passwords across different services, this is not a remote possibility. Mozilla can still be forced by authorities to hand over a user's sync key, and if said authorities know that their target has likely reused their password for Firefox Sync with another website that got a breach, well that user can just hope that there's nothing incriminating in the synced data...They shouldn't have replaced Sync 1.1 (aka Weave) with its J-PAKE where the sync key never leaves the synced device (the only thing the server will have is encrypted data it can't read, even if the sync password gets compromised).@fizzo @jbz

    So a little while ago, Firefox introduced a profiles option to separate your different uses.Great, but now every 6 hours, I get a prompt telling me to make a new profile because the one I'm using is built on an older version of Firefox.Cool, so I go to make a new profile. Right?You can't make a new profile without going into about:whatever, and if I have to look it up, I'm not doing it. The new profile doesn't import from the old profile. It messed up my sync to my Android Firefox. Which is really the only thing keeping me on Firefox. Great. This works on my old profile though.So today, I tried making a new profile again for work purposes. Have you tried switching between profiles? Yeah, I'm still confused.Imagine being funded on the degree of Mozilla and not understanding the importance of "migration" and "backwards compatibility", especially in a consumer product.That's just bad UX, fam. Back to containers it is.#Firefox
