I don't think I'll stop using Firefox anytime soon.
Yes, their management are fucking idiots and it's annoying that I'll have to disable new AI features whenever they release them..

But the alternative is to use something Chromium-based, which would make Google's domination of web technology absolute - and Google is 100x more evil than Mozilla ever could be.

I hope this fucking bubble pops before Mozilla fucks up Firefox so badly that it becomes completely unusable

(yes, there are also the soft-forks of Firefox, but I don't think I'd gain much from them - security updates probably arrive a bit later, and apparently AI features still reach their users before they get around to disabling them)

My fiddling with other browsers is basically checking out lifeboats. Unfortunately, yeah, the situation is pretty dire.

Oh fuck. Even Opera has swallowed the Kool Aid.

Opera's been a zombie for years.

@suetanvil @w_b @Doomed_Daniel On the sites I manage Opera User-Agent comes after the most obscure bots. Fewer than one user per week.
