I really hate that this is used as though it means anything at all to most people. It's not an argument by itself.

... They mean that you're supporting free speech by disabling and block and supporting them
Thousands of movies are released each year. Are you watching them all?
The redirect thing is definitely just Firefox being weird. It's generally a basic redirect that triggers a return-to-app, and Firefox isn't following the redirect properly
I have been poor if you consider making 15k a year for five years and having to live with three other people to make ends meet poor. Also, I was being somewhat facetious.
Then... Don't live in SoCal?
I had an 8k bill for a TIA I had last year. It's a lot of money, but if you have a job that will cover most of your hospital bills, you can probably pay for it without drowning
To be clear, I'm not saying it's a good system
I have 15 years of experience in software engineering, but that's only because I started when I was 12. Experience is experience. Now, if they meant professional experience that's a bit different
The actual middle class generally has a job that gives health insurance which will pay for it almost entirely. If you don't, you're probably not middle class unfortunately
Bewarned that the mobile Firefox app is really not great.
- I am a chronic tab-user (I have more than a hundred open right now. Yes I'm using pretty much all of them.) and 70% of the time when hitting the tab button it doesn't actually scroll to the most recent tab. I have to tap it repeatedly to get to where I was.
- The tab list is horribly wasteful when it comes to space and I see no way to change it.
- Some sites also shit the bed completely when auto-filling from my password manager. Like full on freeze the browser or crash it entirely.
- When an app opens Firefox in an embedded browser to get you to log in, it will pretty much never direct you back to the app after putting your information in. You have to tap the three dots and open it in the actual app for even a chance that it will properly redirect you.
- For 2fa sometimes this doesn't even work. I have to scan my 2fa key then quickly open it in the actual app through the menu before it finishes loading, otherwise it doesn't redirect or gets stuck in a login loop. Fun.
The browser is fine overall, don't get me wrong, there's just some inconveniences that aren't getting fixed.
The world has been pretty shit for the entirety of history. Working conditions are better than they ever have been. People make more than they ever have. Crime is dropping year-over-year.
Arguing that this is occuring because everything is getting worse is just completely and utterly wrong. Quality of life is increasing greatly for the average person.
