    The sentence reads:

    ensuring that this way Firefox offers more data collection and use transparency.

    Are you trying to make a joke or intentionally mislead the people who didn't read the article?

      We know and that's why I dumped Firefox after 15+ years.

      LibreWolf and Floorp is all I have. Oh and I kicked Thunderbird to the curb too for BetterBird.

        I am very averse to companies breaking my trust.

        Mozilla can win it back by explicitly stating what they are collecting, why they are collecting it, and making opt out the default.

          Thunderbird has always been crap. Betterbird is truly better

            Yeah they're not going to do that until a few people leave the company. And they have no plans to leave.

                And that's fine, I'll just use different browsers until they change their stance.

                  What are mobile options here? I'm not really seeing anything better on Android- Waterfox?

                        I remember reading a lot this past year about Mozilla fretting about their market share and trying to figure out how to grow their user base. Did I hallucinate that? Cuz their actions lately appear to be driving users away. Are they taking notes from Google or is there some other MBA making these brilliant changes?

                              Remember the Looking Glass fiasco? The people in charge of Firefox are so stupid it's indistinguishable from malice.

                                Zen has been really nice for the few days I’ve been using it. It feels real sleek and just more modern over all.

                                My computer is a bit old though and I wonder if there is something similar that is even lighter on resources. Zen is still pretty dang light though.

                                    Orion looks good as it does not collect any data. I don’t want Apple profiting from my safari usage.

                                      Thunderbird really is terrible, but for some reason it never occurred to me to find an alternative. Just commenting here so I remember to look into Betterbird.

                                        Same. I’m about done with all things big tech. As much as is possible at least. Orion it is! I also saw Vivaldi but I’m not super interested in all the other services that come along with it.
