Havent you heard that Google will probably not pay Firefox again? Their contract is soon over.
Once this happens, they have to really offer different arguments, and ootb privacy is not currently one of them.
I understand that speed etc is important. But it seems Firefox is worse here, as "google caching everything" will always be faster. In Chrome and Edge I think the search engines always load in the background to show results so blazingly fast. Like 5 seconds on FF, 1s on Chrome both Google.
Its obvious
How are they going to get any funding from now on?
Its not clear if it ends, but if, then well. My post.
All this "I like Firefox because it allows me to use Librewolf" makes no sense here. It needs to be THE browser people donate to, because it actually does what people need.
