That’s disappointing. I love #FireFox and #Mozilla but this is the wrong direction. The org doesn’t appear to have a strong strategy, constantly moving from VPN, to fedi, to AI. Supporting federated services is such an obviously good long-term play for their mission, so to end their Mastodon instance is unfortunate.

Eh, if they were moving towards a more focused, less ridiculously “ai” model, it would make sense to stop spending resources on something that’s not even tangential to their core purposes. But they’re wasting those resources chasing “ai” bullshit, and trying to edge into the ad market.
I mean, as long as the browser and thunderbird stay open source, I don’t really care overall, but it’s still not great.
Every time my phone shuts off for running out of battery, it’s due to Firefox for some stupid reason. Chrome is somehow worse though, just in different ways. Perhaps I should investigate other things like LibreWolf, but if it were clearly better than either, I think we all would have heard of that fact by now.
