Almost all the links in my front homepage are sponsored now. What’s next, a few ads in the bookmark bar? How about when I enter a URL, I then have to type “McDonald’s” before I can actually navigate there?

Y’all can use LibreWolf or BestHomePageEver if it really bugs somebody. I do get being annoyed by shortcut ads though.

I wouldn’t recommend LibreWolf to the average user as they’ll unfoubtedly stretch their attack surface thin.

How much money are they likely to make over a lifetime of a user from the sponsorships. Would FirefoxPro actually be a good idea?
