Yea let's bash Mozilla about privacy while also name dropping Brave LMAAAOOOOO. What a joke.

I dont use Brave. But they are better out of the box, regarding fingerprinting, adblock etc.

@Pantherina Firefox is busted and Mozilla is broken. Need to revert to core principles. In the meantime use Librewolf, a better privacy focused fork of Firefox, and Betterbird, a better privacy focused for of Thunderbird.

They’ve raked in BILLIONS from Google by selling their customers. In the FOSS world, the customer should be a partner, not the product.

True. In the current way, there really is no reason to use Firefox for privacy people. Instead, you just use a really private browser and mozillas way of making money makes no sense.

If they where simply being legit out of the box, why not use it? I would donate all the time if they just asked?

Those privacy browsers are small UI and settings changes, thats it. They are nothing without Firefox.
