The LLM bot they use to read and process these answers will get right on that.

Where's pocket?? Right where it belongs, what a turd of a feature that they force fed us for a while.
I remember using it fondly, saving articles on desktop to read later during commutes or downtime rather than doomscrolling. I might be misremembering but initially their app was great for reading, but then it just started loading the web page rather than text optimized? Maybe I'm misremembering or getting apps mixed up, but I remember it being great for a good chunk of time
I had it as an add on and really liked it. Then Mozilla took it over. Made it worse and forced it on everyone. Then killed it. Truly stupid.
This sounds like something that was fixed by RSS twenty years ago.
RSS is just early doomscrolling. RSS is not a feed of my choices for articles, it’s my choice of content sources.
With that said, I’ve used these readers before and simply can’t get on with them. I just procrastinate whether it’s a new tab or saved in an app. Some people like them though.
Its like a bookmark and reader mode tool all in one. But the websites start doing something and it can't reliably strip all the shit around the text I want to read
They should focus on the browser and what made it great.
Privacy and the option to configure it to your liking.
Work on compability, speed, optimization, and compliance to the standards.
Let the others hunt the latest trends, you won't beat Google on that front anyway.
Those who want AI? Get an extension.
Focus on the users, not buzzwords.
Who the fuck cares about Pocket?
What Mozilla gives to the community is alternative to Chrome that lets you use ad-blocker and privacy features freely. The only reason Google didn't straight out put unblockable tracking and ads into Chrome claiming it's necessary for "security" and profits is that Mozilla is there, showing that it's not. It's the only thing saving us from monopoly right now. And I'm not mad that Mozilla struggles to compete with a company that can throw infinite money at their product. Everyone else failed long time ago. So shut the fuck up Vicky and be glad Firefox is still here instead of attacking them for using tech that pretty much everyone is using today.
why are you defending a corporation instead of asking for a better product? LibreWolf, Waterfox, IronFox, they will get my defense because theyre actually privacy first and respect my opt-in choice for ai and telemetry instead of being opt out. Firefox does not get to be defended until Firefox is LibreWolf/co. by default.
I use Librewolf, but I also understand that it can't exist without Firefox, since it isn't a proper true fork.
I hate that subject matter expertise means nothing. Make a great browser, and I'll find an extension if I choose..
