@excess @laurailway @megatronicthronbanks Google is king because the crown was handed to them on a silver platter. Firefox may be dependent on them. But for the moment, they are pro-user compared to chrome by a huge margin. Neglecting Firefox because it's not perfect is a very counterproductive stance to take.

Meanwhile, there are other solutions in the works. Perhaps this is the wakeup call needed for the world to start supporting those efforts.

Excessive Minimalism

As I mentioned, I use FF daily and is my browser of choice. I'm extremely happy with it (my RAM is quite happy too).

But I'm using it because Google is letting me... momentarily. Thinking otherwise is naive.

@excess @laurailway @megatronicthronbanks That argument is very defeatist, IMO. It's just a surrender without a fight.

Firefox has enough forks already. There will be enough momentum even if Mozilla goes under. And as I said - there are other alternatives in the making. It's either that, or just forget the entire web.
