I see #mozilla making all these #ai related announcements and it makes me sad.

We need you focused on making #firefox the world's greatest web browser.

We need you to curb stomp #chrome and #edge and all their sleazy shenanigans1.

There are so many areas for improvement but I'm going to list a few anyway:

  • Better support for multiple profiles. Trying to use multiple profiles in Firefox right now is miserable #ux sadly.
  • WebUSB support
  • Fuller WebGL support

(With apologies to the folks working on those teams. I'm sure you're good people, but these products are super sleazy in the form they ship to the world)

Here are comments on the evolution of browser share in a year.
(The three samples are heavily skewed to English-speaking higher eds.)

You may still answer in the previous toot.

3/4 Fediverse members use #Firefox proper. Same as last year.
We welcome other parts of the Firefox family (any browser with Gecko inside):
• The share of Librewolf mentions doubled since last year.
• The share of other Gecko-based forks mentions also doubled since last year. (Even though some Waterfox usage is not logged because i did not list it.)

The shares of Chrome and Vivaldi were stable for the first thousand answerers (maybe more IT inclined) but doubled with the later thousand (in the last 24 hours).

The share of the last line (Opera-Blink-Brave mentions) decreased since last year.

It pains me, but I've caved to technical pressures and made Edge the default browser on my work PC.

Firefox has long been my default, but it gets confused about which account to use with which tab, and I often end up fighting to point it to the right account.

Nobody else in my IT department reports this problem. It's almost like Microsoft wants links in Teams to fail with 3rd party browsers. 🤔

Also, Teams sucks. Why do attachments have to be links and not actual files? #Edge

I spent decades perfecting my linux dotfiles and emacs config - but all that changed in just five minutes.

I peeked into my classmate's laptop to copy the homework but I was awestruck by how awesome windows 11 is.

Nixos has rollbacks and emacs but Windows has recall and copilot inside notepad that has done my homework.

I had trouble choosing a browser on Linux after firefox shit its bed. But windows gave me a free microsoft account and bing assured me that Edge is the best.

Life's so good now with microsoft watching my back 😄. Take that linux shills!
