It's sad that it took less than 20 years for Mozilla to pivot to being an ad-tech company that collects the browsing history of Firefox users and puts it into the hands of third parties and ultimately advertisers. Firefox still matters because we don't have a good independent replacement yet which actually rejects surveillance capitalism, just privacy protecting forks that remove the data collection, but it's not really clear how well they'd be maintained and developed if work stopped on Firefox. I have to say that besides the gradual decline in respecting user privacy Firefox has been a great browser. I've been using it since switching from Netscape. Before they got involved with Anonym I would recommend it to anyone. With a bit of work and a lot of about:config edits you can lock firefox down harder than anything else. That's a niche no other browser has much interest in.
