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?
Also, not being able to set the home button to a custom URL is fucking crazy. I want the home button to take me to my selfhosted dashboard that has all my services and links on it. I don’t want the home button to take me to the dumbass firefox page and have to click another link to get to it.
Been using Kiwi instead for this sole reason but now Kiwi is dead. I’m not willing to concede this workflow and make an extra click because Mozilla is braindead and can’t implement a functional home button like every single browser since the beginning of time.
What part of it doesn’t work? Rather than resorting to name calling I would instead say what the problem is. You will get way more help when you aren’t being a jerk.
Are you talking about Firefox based browsers or is my link broken? Firefox allows pinning a web page to start and setting a home page.
Well first of all, rude! Second, where was that stated? Oh it wasn’t? You just felt like being a little bitch on the Internet for no reason? Honestly, relatable.
I think the best viable option for them is to either offer a subscription model. Or increase requests for donations.
Id say support Firefox development, maybe premium access to some of Mozilla’s services, possibly cosmetics in browser
support ff development: thats called donating
premium access to mozillas services: that’s already a thing but you subscribe to each one, like their vpn, pocket, etc
cosmetics in browser: thats just https://addons.mozilla.org/

Either that or they go bankrupt. Design your own browser and give it out for free if you don’t like it
Their profit motive is capped by their only shareholder being a non-profit.
I thought you said “What’s next, a few ads in the URL bar?” …because Mozilla has put a few ads in the URL bar.
Was trying to reference this
Maybe I should have added a paragraph somewhere in there. I was typing fast because I only get so much time on my break at work.
