but getting blind drunk in the street every night for them is fine. Ridiculous.

Me crying on my Zenfone 10 right now. Shame because it's a brilliant phone.

I get the sentiment but that is in no fashion a way to move forward.

I'm genuinely ~~un~~surprised my previous comment got removed but anyway at least thanks for answering and providing an example.

Most of the revenue of Mozilla Corporation comes from Google (81% in 2022[2]) in exchange of making it the default search engine in Firefox.

Other issues I have with Firefox is the telemetry bits, the way they handle some of their employees (laying one guy off because he has cancer), the lack of meaningful updates and features in the last decade, CEO granting herself a nice pay rise after doing well nothing really. The list goes on and on honestly.

Don't get me wrong, you should still use Firefox or a Firefox derived browser if you care about a free internet. I myself use firefox (although I just switched to Zen browser on my PC which is based on Firefox). However we shouldn't be blind ourselves just because we hate anything google based and/or closed sourced. Firefox is still back by a for profit company which is, as I quoted earlier, backed at least by 80% by google.

For the positive side now it seems that in the last 2-3 months firefox has been pumping out meaningful updates (even on mobile). Things seem to be taking a positive turn recently and I'm actually a bit excited to see where firefox is going to go from here.
