Too late I’ve installed Librewolf. I’m going to either find a tool this weekend or write one tonight that will keep my bookmarks in sync with ios and that will be it for them from me.
The value is wayyyyyy too low to embrace folding. And perhaps these negative reactions are extreme but are a bit more telling.
Clearly nearly almost everyone wants Firefox out of the hands of Mozilla. They have low market share from being Google’s get out if jail free card. Now the 2.x% that remain are flocking away as well. This exit out is an attempt to “fork” Firefox in some manner. There is an opportunity to swoop in and pick up the helm.
Mozilla perhaps doesn’t see the story everyone else does:
- developed privacy stance over a decade
- updates their policy to state “actually well we’ve been selling data about you”
At this point you might as well have said, “Haha we’ve been lying this whole time about privacy.”
Regardless of truth and nuance of it all, the damage is done. The privacy promise was the only thing holding the rest of the complaints back.
