And since you won’t be able to modify web pages, it will also mean the end of customization, either for looks (ie. DarkReader, Stylus), conveniance (ie. Tampermonkey) or accessibility.

The community feedback is… interesting to say the least.

    What’s your alternative?

    EDIT: Oh I just found in the profile. It’s Brave. I used it for half a year before I got tired of the crypto ads sneaking into my home page’s links no matter how many times I deleted them and of some other stuff. I prefer Firefox’s UI. Also I don’t expect any browser to be 100% ethical but Brave is below Firefox in that list for me

      If you truly cared about the state of the internet youd only browse websites with wget and text editors

      Or something

      It doesn’t matter and it’s irrelevant here. I just despise Mozilla and their false morality. Use whatever you want.

        It’s not irrelevant since you stated Firefox is less good than what you are using now. Of course people are interested in a feasible alternative. So, since you introduced it, what are you using instead?

          I didn’t know I was so evil that I’m doing the world a worse place just because I prefer a different browser. And I’m ideologically far form alt-right, btw.

          OTOH, talking about corporate greed:

            that is a funny graph. Even assuming the data is true, it deliberately missrepresents market share as usage. Which pretty much neglects the fact hat maybe a person or two and a device with a browser or two have entered the market since then.

            Also it does not have any information on source of the data, methodology, definition of the terms etc. So it is pretty much worthless as an argument.

      Nice detective skills. I have the opposite view about Brave/Mozilla. But fine, we can agree to disagree and still be (virtual) friends.

        Opposite view of what? Brave is peddling crypto bullshit

          Cool. On my part I, as a non crypto-bro, don’t want to be friends with stupid people. So, I’ll ignore you from now on.

            Nice one mate. Looks like your personality is well-received here. Maybe going back to Reddit might suit you better.
