I'm thankful Firefox is still around. The thought of browsing the Internet without Firefox, particularly on mobile, is utterly horrifying.

I'm thankful another group has taken up development of the Servo web engine to help resist the Blink monopoly.

[@hicksrobin42]

Thankful for Firefox, Ubuntu/Linux, and Bluesky. Since the Internet is a scary place, I'm also thankful for the Proton ecosystem.

👎 *I gave this video a big Dislike.* It'a another Firefox video that has absolutely nothing to do with Firefox. Fortunately I stopped watching after the first few seconds! Instead I had KZbin's AI "Summarize the video" feature verify that it has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with Firefox. *Thank goodness we can use the Brave Browser, the Vivaldi browser, and others. But NOT Firefox.* And if we used to enjoy Firefox we can just use LibreWolf. The fork of Firefox WITHOUT the privacy invading TRACKING that is turned on BY DEFAULT -- in genuine Firefox.

[@TimTim40484]

That's because the series is called "Outside the Fox" ???

[@JohnFromNewJerseyUSA]

@@TimTim40484 The series belongs on its own KZbin channel. *Do you get it now???*

[@thelastknight9367]

​@@TimTim40484maybe the common sense isn't that common? 😂

[@haxel360]

Nobody is installing any of the things you mentioned here

[@JohnFromNewJerseyUSA]

@@haxel360 You have it backwards: People are outraged that Firefox switched to using Google as its default Search Engine. The previous Default had been DuckDuckGo as I recall. Ever heard of it? Or did you just start using Firefox recently? (And Firefox/Mozilla is paid lots of money by Google for using them as the default!!!) Google tracks you/spies on you, BTW. And gives you search results according to who pays them the most money. ("SEO". Search Engine Optimization.) I assume you've never heard of this. People are also outraged that Firefox recently set everyone's browser to ALLOW TRACKING BY DEFAULT!!! Everyone had to dig around the settings to turn it off. (If they even had the benefit of hearing about it being turned ON in the first place.) I assume you have no idea what I'm talking about. But Firefox is now tracking you -- BY DEFAULT. Because you didn't know you had to go in and change the new Default settings. Firefox has greatly declined in popularity over the last few years. While Brave has gradually become more and more popular. And LibreFox forked Firefox. To DISABLE the tracking BY DEFAULT. Vivaldi is yet another up and coming privacy-focused browser. Meanwhile Mozilla *(Firefox's developers) recently fired a ton of its employees.* Because even though Google is paying them loads of money, they continue to lose more and more money (and market share) every month. To every other browser. Including Edge and Chrome. I'm sorry you're living in the past. When Firefox had been concerned about privacy. BTW, there are people that are unaware that Firefox even exists. They would argue that "nobody uses this 'Firefox' thing." Just like you claim that nobody uses Brave. Because they don't know. Like you don't know. *They will loudly argue with you that people only use Chrome, Edge, and Safari.* Because they are uninformed. Similar to how you are uninformed. It's not their fault, and it's not your fault either. But yes, you are uninformed. Sorry to tell you that. Years ago Firefox was the best browser. 👍 Many years ago. But no longer. 👎 And when you subscribe to the Firefox KZbin channel in the hopes of learning what Mozilla is doing to recover all that lost market share and improve their Firefox browser, all you get is people babbling about everything BUT the Firefox browser itself. Not even a mention of what Mozilla's corporate plans are. Maybe Firefox will quit being a browser soon? Maybe Firefox will become known as a podcast... that has absolutely nothing to do with browsers. Ya think???
