I don't know what it is with Mozilla, they're both the only saving grace of the open-source browser world and the most stupid internet company at the same time. And they've been both for decades, with a budget that could have allowed them to be and to do so much more...

I don't know why people think Mozilla is a "saving grace" of anything. One glance at their privacy policy proves otherwise.

Mozilla has both a for-profit and non-profit arm, much like RPi (formerly) and OpenAI.

I am fully in support of privacy-preserving ads. Much of the internet runs on ads. All your favorite YouTubers, favorite news sources, etc. are all survived by ads.
A saving grace in terms of browser engines. They are the only real competitor to Chromium.
This whole “for-profit owned by a non-profit” paradigm needs to globally crushed right the fuck now. It should never have been allowed to happen and should not be tolerated.

I can tolerate ads, but I still wish we had a better financing model for content on the internet at large. Ad tech has a tendency to creep into places where it doesn't belong. Like task bars, or explorers.
Only if you use Windows or OEM/Stock Android. I happen to not see ads ever.

While both signal and Firefox are lords work... The actual leadership appears to be some clowns. Both appears to be essentially here to maintain status quo where tech nerds get their fix but the fix doesn't go mainstream. It is a fine line.
I don't know about Signal, but I've seen two non tech savvy people using Firefox in the wild.
