There are already other open source forks of Firefox that are community driven and maintained without employees or a for profit organization behind them. The obvious example is LibreWolf which describes itself as "a custom and independent version of Firefox, with the primary goals of privacy, security and user freedom". There's no argument that maintaining a web browser is currently complex and needs to make security first decisions, but LibreWolf as an example shows us that it is not only possible but I argue proves it will continue even if Firefox as we know it goes away.

You may want to educate yourself before spreading unnecessary FUD. Firefox is free and open source, and always has been. There's no danger in Firefox becoming a paid browser because even if they tried, it would just be forked and maintained by another community or group.

Mozilla does have a for-profit arm called the Mozilla Corporation, and they manage the money received from Google and others. But that doesn't mean Firefox is going to become paid even if Google gets broken up by the antitrust efforts of the US government.

I like Thunder too, especially since it's cross platform on Android and iOS / iPadOS. I get the same user experience on my phone and my iPad.

I hope this cinema (or the chain it belongs to) goes out of business. What a hostile way to treat your customers.

I personally recommend the stable version. It has integrated Adblock and sponsorblock. The dev is very responsive when issues arise like YouTube breaking stuff.

Any reason you recommend the beta instead of the stable version?

I'm guessing that's not the reason for the downvotes. Even though this is the reddit community, Lemmy users generally just don't care about what happens on reddit.

Yeah this surprised me. Is NFC payment not common in India?

These days they would be using an esim rather than a physical sim.

Baked in AI makes C Suite and shareholders happy. That's about it.
