End of Japanese community at Mozilla due to the introduction of AI-based translation.

The community members have expressed disappointment and frustration that their long term volunteer efforts and local knowledge were being replaced by machine translation, which they felt did not match the quality of human provided support.

This is why Mozilla sucks so much, they are going crazy like rest of the industry.

Hello, let me add my .02 as a convert to librewolf: I grew to hate their militant stance on how end users should use browsers. Namely the password manager they disable from the Firefox code base.

I ended up migrating to waterfox, which seems to be more open and still removing the bloat and crap from Firefox

Just to pipe in on this point specifically: You can (and I do!) re-enable the password manager in Librewolf by clicking a checkbox.
