    oh hey it’s you! I actually thought about your comments as soon as I saw this headline. I switched from Firefox to brave a few years ago, then recently switched to waterfox as they are again independent of system1 like before. the browser itself removes a lot of unnecessary Mozilla integrations and also reverts the proton UI. maybe forks like this or Librewolf are the future for this browser?

      Ah, the chromium approach.*

      :D

      No, I think you’re right. (I think people will strip down Firefox and those strip down versions will probably persist to be the ideal browser for years to come)

      *I am aware that there is a difference here

        That’s not the chromium approach. That’s the Phoenix (a fork of Netscape Navigator) approach.

        Of course, Phoenix ended up becoming Firefox.
