You do realize that just knowing what a Github repo is, or where Mozilla's official blog is, puts you and I in a group consisting of 0.000000001% of the userbase for most software, right? The only place most people will see anything like this is if -- if -- the company is kind enough to notify them *when they open the app*. Otherwise, it's absolutely invisible. And you all aren't dumb. You know this. Which is why you opted everyone in, and didn't put it on the upgrade splash screen. 4 comments
@denschub If you don’t want users to be upset at your choices, maybe don’t make choices that harm them? What’s more, there’s a pattern here. Mozilla only continues to exist because Google, the world’s largest ad company, keeps it alive. Mozilla has also recently purchased an ad company, so is actively part of that toxic market. And you partnered with Meta of all untrustworthy, data hungry ad companies on this nega-feature. Gee, I wonder why people are upset.  @denschub @narinarinari @denschub @narinarinari “No matter how we handle this, there's always a large group of people yelling at us.” you’re so close |

@narinarinari Every time we put anything in front of the user after any updates, y'all on social media go full rage mode, too. No matter how we handle this, there's always a large group of people yelling at us.
Bobby explained in his Reddit post why we decided to make this opt-out. If you disagree with that, that's your good right. I can't convince you otherwise, and if you want to act like this is a big conspiracy, so be it. Nothing we could say will change that.
