Mozilla right now.

Quick question for you. I use Firefox Developer Version extensively for web design projects. Is the same AI slop going to be integrated into that, too?
@TheEffekt @davidrevoy Dev Edition is, at the moment, just Firefox Nightly (although it may recive dev-focused updates earlier when those are available). @firefoxwebdevs has a Q&A style thread started with clarifying how there is going to be a “kill switch” — not just for Dev Edition, but for Firefox in general.

@davidrevoy I changed to Brave and it's very nice..... but the default search engine still has some AI stuff, but DuckDuckGo is still there.

@coldfish @davidrevoy Unfortunately, Brave's worse than Mozilla. (The CEO's a homophobe, the company's heavily into cryptoscams, and it just gets worse from there.)

@davidrevoy@framapiaf.org the firefox is extinguishing itself

@wizzwizz4 @davidrevoy really??? Dammit. I was enjoying this thing
-
@davidrevoy Oh this is very good
-
@davidrevoy I do not trust this hysteria about it. Mozilla has been making the right choices for the past 20+ years; I believe it will continue to be so.
-
@davidrevoy but you gotta admit that bird looks cooler than the fox, maybe they should bring back the Phoenix browser branding while they're at it

@davidrevoy
Hélas...

@davidrevoy
No. -
@davidrevoy qu'est ce qu'il se passe ?

What i would really, really wish from Mozilla is: Make a thing that does one thing and do it right, in this case: Being a browser.
Yes, i know you can disable the AI crap or any other nuisances, but it would be really nice if they would focus on their main product.

@OndrejZizka You mean like when they changed their TOS so they could do whatever they want with your data? (https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2025/02/firefox-deletes-promise-to-never-sell-personal-data-asks-users-not-to-panic/)
That was when I abandoned them for Waterfox and never looked back.
-
@davidrevoy I lament that the fox you created is cute, gives it a juxtaposition.
But maybe it’s actually brilliant? After all, we want to save the fox, from itself.
Either way, I’m never paying for browser AI, and if that means ads/privacy invasions I’m out. Such a sad state of affairs.

@davidrevoy at first I thought that was Thunderbird who cut herself loose and was flying away. One can dream...

-
AI slop is why I dumped firefox for DuckDuckGo.

@wizzwizz4 @coldfish @davidrevoy ironically he was also the CEO of Mozilla... for like a month
