        Ironic how the typo directly inverted the meaning.

        will not adopt = will not use the new Firefox terms

        will not adapt = will use the new Firefox terms exactly, without any rewording

            Well, IIRC, TB isn't developed by Mozilla. They just "host" it.

              Which is one more stupid thing from Mozilla. Imagine if, 10 years ago, they had made a combo of: Firefox, Thunderbird, email hosting, maybe some kind of online office thing and a drive, Sync... That could have been the ultimate productivity package for "Office" stuff inside one convenient subscription.

              Instead we now have Office 365, Google Docs, and nothing more.

                    Don't give them subscription ideas, even mentioning subscriptions is dangerous!

                      Firefox is the kind of software where I would gladly pay $10 a month to support its development.

                      Dismantle Mozilla, give the money to Firefox, profit.

                            Exactly. I'd donate today if my money actually went to Firefox.

                                I want separate apps that are really good at what they do, not a bunch of apps that kinda work together and are just okay. So I would much rather they focus on one thing and services around it. Such as:

                                • online payments - make a way for me to compensate sites in lieu of ads
                                • secure storage - bookmarks, files, notes, all from the browser; or self host
                                • VPN integrated into the browser - exists

                                Everything should be opt-in and privacy centered, and all of that can be browser extensions.

                                  They do. Well, I should say Thunderbird is also under the Foundation, but is developed by a separate subsidiary Corp (MZLA Tech Corp) than Firefox (Mozilla Corp).

                                      So a bit like extending Mozilla Application Suite aka Seamonkey instead of focusing on standalone products?

                                        It really is a shame that it looks so terrible. It's a really solid office suite otherwise, but I agree that it's not a pleasure to use simply because of how ugly it is
