    > Today, I upgraded to Firefox 106. Upon opening Firefox, I received a very creepy message saying: > "Thank you for loving Firefox". > I really resent the presumptuousness of this message. I never told you I "loved" Firefox. How could anyone "love" a Web browser? It's a functional tool: a doorway to the Web. I am dying. This has to be one of the funniest things I've read all year.

      Agreed that was fun to read. I can relate as sometimes I too get angry and rant at marketing copy. And really, why does Mozilla want me to pick a color for Firefox when I just want to use it? I guess I'll stop now.

        > why does Mozilla want me to pick a color for Firefox when I just want to use it? Guess I just don't care. Some people want it. I mean I change my theme. But there's defaults and I don't have to think about most of these things and they don't affect me or anyone I know, so why care? lol
