I mean, I'm not a dev and I haven't dove deep into the forks in a while. I just remember that they added something to their readme on github during one of the recent "firefox is dead" cycles that said that LibreWolf's focus of privacy first makes it poorly suited as a general use daily driver.
They were getting swamped with people looking for help because the defaults caused certain sites to not function or something.
Dude what the fuck?
So my bad, I didn't clock the PPA abbreviation being about the experimental adtech bullshit they pulled.
But I feel like my point still stands. Claims that Mozilla is harvesting user data should be (relatively) easily proven by audits of the source code. Disproving things tends to be harder, and I'm not the person making the claim.
I'm not "gatekeeping" shit. I'm saying that bold claims should have facts backing them up, and so far I've not been shown anything to back it up.
(Edit: to be clear, the claim that these local AI features would be an increase in user data being harvested)
You appear to have strong feelings about this, so I was hoping you had more than specious claims based entirely off a major gaffe.
I'm not saying that Firefox and Mozilla should get trust by default. I'm saying that if they are doing shit as heinous as what you claimed, there should be evidence that can be pointed to.
Even something as simple as "hey, their prepackaged versions aren't reproducable by compiling the source code".
There are enough people who care a lot about this, and the source code is right there. No one should have to speculate on any of what Mozilla is or isn't doing here as it's all out in the open.
We're pleased to announce we've made the tormaent nexus from the hit novel "Don't make the torment nexus".
I binged through WD1 and 2 in like a month last year. Great great fucking games, but I was surprised to hear that apparently it's weird to prefer the first one?
The second game is a fun playground, but the first one was such a tightly designed experience where nearly all of the elements reinforced each other in terms of design, setting, and plot.

Thank you. So many people lately that think there's some magic "fix everything" button hidden in the neck of whatever top asshole is in power.
Doesn't take too deep a look at revolutions the world over to see that isn't the case.
This is great, but many many computer games simply do not grow with changes in hardware over time. That's not a console exclusive problem.
Outdated libraries, relying on features no longer supported by the OS, coding game elements reliant on the lack of speed of old hardware, automatic engine updates breaking old functionality.
The list goes on and on.
Don't forget "styrofoam walls painted to look like tunnels". Fucking looney tunes.
If someone's a piece of shit, whatever corporate mannerisms they do or don't pick up are not going to be what makes or breaks the fact they're a shit person.
Most still are/can be. Enough that I find it hard to believe people are missing out without podcasts through these paid services.
I feel bad for the LibreWolf devs who continue to desperately say that it's not designed to be a general use browser.
