Sorry, you are correct - I meant uBlock Origin
I have a suspicion you were downvoted for your view on women, not Mozilla
The only issue I see with this is that it was not unexpected
They have been using the same formula for 15 years and it still works, I have no idea what the people you know are expecting
Not in Firefox specifically, but many chromium based browsers are about to lose access to the original ublock. I've been planning on switching to Firefox when this goes through for a while now.
I write this at least once a day - I fucking hate business people / CEOs
No one starts a company because they care about people
Wow, utterly shocked that a company with a shit CEO that takes most of its money from Google would have these viewpoints.
I'm sure it is completely coincidental that ublock is about to die as well.
they want to maximize the predictability of their resource usage in terms of staff and servers.
I think you are definitely correct here. However, you are overlooking the actual main goal of every business - making as much money as possible.
I haven't been using kagi long enough to really understand how it works yet, but it's my understanding that they want you to pay every month, even if you had remaining searches from the previous month.
If I pay $5 for 300 searches, why does it matter if I do them within a time frame? When someone isn't' searching, they aren't really costing Kagi anything.
Alternatively, let people pay 1.6 cents per search (or 1.8 cents or something).
I'm already mad about having to potentially abandon my highly customized Vivaldi should ublock lite not work up to my standards
