Comment on: Firefox is now the last major browser that still supports uBlock Origin

If only they focused on making Firefox the definitive good browser instead of a platform for their AI efforts.Firefox will never convince people to leave chrome on philosophy alone. I detest Chrome with a passion and refuse to touch it with a ten-foot pole, but cannot in good faith recommend Firefox to anyone in today’s world. “It kinda works” is about as far a compliment you can give it.
