Okay, first the stupid fucking ‘Turning Red’ advertisement that dared to call itself ‘adorable’, and now this?

Seriously, does FireFox hate itself, or just hates it’s dwindling but loyal user base?

We used to use Firefox because they didn’t do shit like this.

I actually deleted Firefox after about 15 years of loyal use after the ‘Turning Red’ incident. Glad to hear I made the right call.

I’ve been using Safari and have no regrets.

Goodbye, Firefox. Good riddance, if this is how you’ll behave.

It’s sad to watch the dream of a mainstream open-source browser that wasn’t evil vanish.

We will need something else, but I don’t see huge potential adoption for anything.

It was hard enough to get people to swap browsers in the 00’s, it’s gonna be way harder with each platform pushing its own pre-installed browser.
