At this point, I dream of a competitor arriving. One that that would be supported by the community and actually care about competent users, like Firefox once was.
AFAICT, Firefox (Mozilla Corporation) wants dumb users, an expanding platform they control and ad money.
There is no way to donate for Firefox development, nor can you pay for support, nor specific development or feature requests. People would throw money at them, yet they try finding creative ways to monetize their users in an effort to "diversify sources of income".
Meanwhile they continue to show they are in control of your browser - ignoring user preferences, hotpatching, A/B tests, dozens of requests without a single page open and no way to disable, numerous ways of advertising...
I still consider Firefox the lesser evil, but the stage is ripe for an uprising.
