Firefox doing well at something? Guess it’s time for Firefox fans to imagine them eventually doing something else that they don’t like so they can gripe about that instead.
I mean… they are kind of pushing AI right now, probably to soak some of that VC money floating around, but there is also a toggle in the settings thats basically “dont ever talk to me about AI again”.
They may also be pushing AI features because there are people who actually do want to use them. “Nobody wants this” is a refrain most commonly spoken inside social bubbles.
As you say, nobody has to use these features if they don’t want to. If they feel icky even knowing that there’s a configuration option there then there are plenty of Firefox forks out there that don’t even have that. It’s so tiresome seeing these complaints being endlessly inserted into unrelated discussions like this.
Day later: Firefox adds more AI features enabled by default

Facedeer is just an AI evangelist troll. I guess one of his goals is to try convincing people of some “silent majority” somewhere.
There’s no point in arguing with him on this

You know what’s tiresome? Having some sort of LLM shoved in every single piece of software or service.
I want new features and bug fixes, not the same chatbot everywhere.
