You’re right but I’m a LibreWolf guy myself. Firefox has been making too many shitty decisions (AI Integration things) for my liking.

  uBlock works just fine for librewolf BTW.
  
  Firefox lost me after they snuck ai bullshit into the browser and suddenly went from an efficient browser to dogshit tier right next to edge. If I need to about: config AND look up how to disable some garbage a dev shoehorned in… I’ll spend that time downloading a browser that doesnt forget its only job is to render the thing I clicked on as quickly and efficiently as possible. If I want something more I’ll use an add-on.

    FF doesnt have money, when google turned off the tap. i assume they are introducing AI now, because google wants that data for AI as well, they might have come to angreement that is not privy to the public.

    Sure. That’s fine. Get paid. Devs need to eat (I sure do.)
    
    Did it have to be opt out? Did some of the settings need to be buried in about: config? Its not even remotely a shock to any internet denizen that AI isn’t openly loved by all. Put simply they opted to act first and apologise later. Actions have consequences. They likely had meetings and decided the money was worth upsetting people like me who would react negatively. I’m simply fulfilling my part of the equation.
    
    They earned my trust and patronage by being more secure and faster - and principally “less evil” than rhe other guy.
    
    And they lost it doing this.
