It wasn't "mission accomplished," there was essentially no difference between the Supersize meals that were discontinued and the large meals that still exist to this day. The movie achieved no positive goals for the general public, and (arguably) helped solidify the general public's perception that fat people wouldn't be fat anymore if they stopped going to McDonalds.

Yeah, I would agree the loss of agency was also a meaningful impact. That's also pretty visible in Apple's products today—I only ever use the Music app on my iPhone for music I own and synchronize, but it will still give me occasional popups about signing up for the Music subscription.
Yeah, this is just building a new engine for a car already at the junkyard. This will have no practical utility when, or if, it reaches parity with X11.

I haven't noticed a website outright blocking Firefox in a while, in part because Firefox devs are staying on top of it with overriding a lot of site blocks. The issue I run into the most is reduced video quality in Google Meet in Firefox, so I switch to Safari or Chromium when I need to do calls there.

Chromium builds don't have built-in automatic updates, and they're missing DRM and some other proprietary components that are important. I've seen some community-maintained builds with varying update methods, but they don't seem as well-supported as relying on Google/Microsoft/Vivaldi/whatever.
I used desktop Linux as my daily driver for years, I am aware it exists.
Yes, I suggested Vivaldi in the article.

There are not millions of Americans eating the largest possible McDonalds meals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. That has never been reality.
If for no other reason, that's like $20-40 of spending every day ($600-$1,200 in a 30-day month), and most Americans don't have that much money for food.
