I'll start: Opening new tabs all the way to the right or bottom, rather than next to the current tab. Its especially disorienting on vertical tabs, I lose track of which (I changed the setting but its still annoying on blank Firefox profiles).

Any and all AI shite enabled by default rather than the opposite with a prompt asking me if I want to enable it

The main toggle disabled translation, which apparently uses local AI. I don’t like that …

Where do you think LLMs even came from? Lol

[–] Jack@lemmy.ca 2 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

And why isn't it extensions?

Who exactly do they think are the 2-4% of people who use Firefox? How big is the intersection of Firefox users, and users who want to use LLMs but don't want to gargle Microsoft AI or Gemini integrated Chrome?

They’re doing it to try to gain market share. Anyone who wants to see those features aren’t going to install an addon for that.

Anyone who wants those features is already using a different browser. Mozilla is arriving late, handicapped by promises of "ethics," and unable to advertise themselves except by practically apologizing for doing it
