    From the organisation who stopped making a good browser and instead made a bloated slop machine.

      You can turn the ai off with a click. That’s hardly bloated. Not that it’s good it’s there at all, but still.

        Yeah, it’s “only” a click and it’s “only” one thing (that still sits on your computer, unwanted and unneeded and a waste of Mozilla’s development and upkeep resources).

        Only AI tab groups and an AI sidebar…

        …and an AI search engine…

        …and ads disguised as news…

        …and ads disguised as frequently visited sites…

        …and sponsored weather…

        …and ads in the URL bar…

        …and “privacy preserving advertisement data collection”…

        …and a freaking built-in VPN a la Opera.

        Tell me, when will you allow us to start calling it bloat?

                Then you had to “only” fix every single one of those things across every profile and computer you’ve used it on.

                So at what point does that become more than “hardly” bloat to you? Or do you consider Edge and Brave to be in the same category of hardly bloated?

                    You already said that, it’s not just “one click,” it certainly doesn’t address the rest of the bloat, and it’s irrelevant to the question I’m going to ask you a third time.

                    Tell me, when will you allow us to start calling all these unnecessary features bloat?

                    Do you have a limit or no?
