Why did they change this icon?

@tommi

They should use scissors instead of a knife, as a symbol for supporting Russian censorship.

We all knew the enshitification was coming when they put someone from Airbnb in charge. It begins by sucking up to Russia.

They suspended it temporarily while they figured out what to do, then reinstated already.

Is that really necessary here?

@tommi @firefox @mozilla Where can I get that shirt? I need it.

[-] tommi@pan.rent 5 points 4 months ago

@anonicus @firefox @mozilla Unfortunately they are just giving it here, I could not get it!

[-] anonicus@shitposter.world 8 points 4 months ago

@tommi @firefox @mozilla Smh, They really need to bring back the Merch store. I used to see it as a kid but as soon as I turned adult and able to buy something, There's no more merch store.

Likely cost more than the funding it would have or was bringing in to support Firefox development

[-] TexasDrunk@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

I miss the old one. The current one isn't great.

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Wheeeee!

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.

That seems kinda sad and pathetic for a celebration.

[-] xploit@lemmy.world 51 points 4 months ago

What would you say if they had a big party with a lot of PR/marketing behind it;
"they're wasting all this money to have fun instead of making the product better"?

[-] ripcord@lemmy.world 11 points 4 months ago

Yes, because they just want to shit on stuff.

[-] Dirk@lemmy.ml 3 points 4 months ago

Most of the money does not go into the browser anyways.

Absolutely. But running after the latest hypetrain bullshit and managers cashing out on corporation income is more important to them.

Till this day the mobile browser absolutely sucks (you don't have a tab bar and you can't even set a homepage! What the hell?!) and the desktop browser gets slower with every update. But at least we now have AI nonsense, not stylable UI by default, and massive loads of telemetry and user tracking only configurable via about:config.

Firefox could be such an awesome browser if it would be modernized, made faster, and made fully configurable (mobile and desktop alike).

I'm not mad at the main devs or the volunteers. They do an awesome job! The state Firefox is in is entirely the fault of the foundation management.

Used by the Kremlin themselves aww .
