The LLM bot they use to read and process these answers will get right on that.
Where's pocket?? Right where it belongs, what a turd of a feature that they force fed us for a while.
I remember using it fondly, saving articles on desktop to read later during commutes or downtime rather than doomscrolling. I might be misremembering but initially their app was great for reading, but then it just started loading the web page rather than text optimized? Maybe I'm misremembering or getting apps mixed up, but I remember it being great for a good chunk of time
I had it as an add on and really liked it. Then Mozilla took it over. Made it worse and forced it on everyone. Then killed it. Truly stupid.
Who the fuck cares about Pocket?
What Mozilla gives to the community is alternative to Chrome that lets you use ad-blocker and privacy features freely. The only reason Google didn't straight out put unblockable tracking and ads into Chrome claiming it's necessary for "security" and profits is that Mozilla is there, showing that it's not. It's the only thing saving us from monopoly right now. And I'm not mad that Mozilla struggles to compete with a company that can throw infinite money at their product. Everyone else failed long time ago. So shut the fuck up Vicky and be glad Firefox is still here instead of attacking them for using tech that pretty much everyone is using today.
why are you defending a corporation instead of asking for a better product? LibreWolf, Waterfox, IronFox, they will get my defense because theyre actually privacy first and respect my opt-in choice for ai and telemetry instead of being opt out. Firefox does not get to be defended until Firefox is LibreWolf/co. by default.
I use Librewolf, but I also understand that it can't exist without Firefox, since it isn't a proper true fork.
They should focus on the browser and what made it great.
Privacy and the option to configure it to your liking.
Work on compability, speed, optimization, and compliance to the standards.
Let the others hunt the latest trends, you won't beat Google on that front anyway.
Those who want AI? Get an extension.
Focus on the users, not buzzwords.
Alternatively, here's a shorter version. Feel free to copy and paste it in your own responses.
Wah wah wah
I don't like AI and I don't want other people to like it either
Wah wah wah
So did you just ignore the whole majority of the text that was complaining about things other than AI, or are you just illiterate and got lucky posting this comment?
A different poster covered OP's thoughts on Pockets.
Cool, so between their childish whinging and yours, your combined efforts covered about 30% of the text in the post, congrats. Do you want a cookie?
Firefox has a target audience. AI chat in the omnibar (because my policies.json had a missing comma and the ESR updated itself on Linux) is not matching the target audience. And neither is anything they did since they got rid of XUL.
Firefox's market share still shrinks, since they tried to appeal to a wider audience instead of their target audience but failed. They should focus more on their target audience now.
What is there to like? It's the most vapid thing mankind has ever invented.
Wario noises
I hate that subject matter expertise means nothing. Make a great browser, and I'll find an extension if I choose..
