They’ve been making announcements indicating that they’re going to start focusing on chatbot/AI/LLM bullshit instead of what they should be doing, which is maintaining their web browser.
There’s also the news of them forcing opt-out only on tracking today or yesterday
Then there was the news that they fired one of their open source executives because he had the audacity to get cancer
Then the news that they (Mozilla) acquired an ad company because “we’re built different and we can fix her and totally not get corrupted by ads in the process”
Also the AI shit as commented
Oh and then the news where they almost sucked Putins dick and pulled FF from being accessible in Russia for a day or 2
And a bunch of other stuff that I’m probably forgetting about. And that’s just within the last year
Nothing. Lemmy hates Firefox for some reason. It’s getting old and boring seeing these posts. You can disable all the telemetry crap and anything else you want in the about:config. The fact that they let you do this automatically makes it better than most other browsers.
Wuh oh, I’m OOTL here, what’s happening to Firefox?
Nothing. People have been memeing about it’s death for 10 years.
I had another reply that gave a decent reason to support the meme :)

Well I guess I need to start looking for another non-chromium-based browser soon…
Jokes on you, there isn’t one that’s not just a fork of Firefox.
Joke’s on you, Safari.
Safari is only available on Macs and iOS devices, so it’s not real (because I can’t see it)
🤮
