@JayLittle @MageInBlack Oh sure I don't like how Mozilla is funded, but that is not the argument I responded to, and you're mischaracterising what I said. If you don't wanna identify with something, don't make yourself look like it.
Anyway I'd rather deal with a company that has a marketing deal with Google than Google itself or an equivalently shitty thing like Brave.
Also citation needed on that last part.
@outfrost @MageInBlack Citation needed? For what? The fact that Mozilla gets almost all of its revenue from Google? Okay fine.

"Those payments, which started in 2005, have been increasing—up 50% over the past decade, to more than $450 million, even as the total number of Firefox users has plummeted. In 2021 these payments accounted for 83% of Mozilla’s revenue."
I was under the impression this was common knowledge - I guess not.
