    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 has always been crap. Betterbird is truly better

            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.

                  Nah, Waterfox and Floorp devs are trying to make money out of their software.

                  LibreWolf or Zen

                              No, I mean by default you are opted out.

                                As long as they do it ethically, there's nothing wrong with that. That's also how Foss projects stay alive.

                                    Betterbird wouldn't exist without thunderbird though. Same with all those firefox forks people are recommending, if Firefox goes under most of those would go under too.

                                      Okay, but when this is discussed "making opt out the default" means you are signed up and have to opt out if you don't want to be signed up.
