Mozilla is accusing Microsoft of using Windows design choices and Copilot integrations to steer users toward Edge and make Firefox harder to use, raising fresh concerns about browser competition and platform control.
I had an ad in my Firefox settings for “Solo AI Website Creator”. It’s a product from Mozilla for using AI to build your website. Note that it’s not open source, and you must rely on them to host your website (no export functionality, and recurring fees outside a basic free tier).
I agree with you, I wish Mozilla would focus solely on their mission instead of trying to build all these side projects people don’t want.
I meeeean…. I kinda agree with you, but where exactly do you expect funding to come from? “Focus only on the browser. That they make no money off. Also stop accepting money from Google.”
Like I get it to an extent, it would be nice. But how exactly is “make no money” a viable business plan?
That’s fair. I wouldn’t reject money from Google but instead build up an endowment with it for when it eventually disappears. If you can recover your market share (maybe by investing in your browser - the peformance is lagging) then you can also demand more money from Google to set them as default. Finally, Mozilla is a non-profit and I wouldn’t be opposed to them just asking for donations, like most non-profits.
