It’s sucky and I particularly hate ads percolating to every part if my life, BUT how are they meant to support Firefox and other software without a revenue stream? Mozilla seems to attract criticism for how they run the whole operation, I can’t tell how correct it is, but even if they run it perfectly they still need revenue.
Let me pay for Firefox, please!
How on earth do they think users want that? Seriously Mozilla, how? Why?

Do you believe Mozilla should be able to pay its bills? If you’re not happy with this way of raising revenue, what else do you suggest?

I'd however gladly pay around 10-20 euros / month for firefox.

Edit: My assumption was that a proportion of the money donated to the Mozilla Foundation is used to fund Mozilla Firefox.
I stand corrected (but I still consider the foundation worth supporting).
A follow up question for those replying to this comment: does the revenue from Pocket and/or the Mozilla VPN help to fund Firefox?
As someone who has used Firefox since v0.* I really, really, really dislike the language they have used lately. > relevant suggestions from our trusted partners The suggestions are not relevant to, and the partners not trusted by, me.
Indeed. They should just state "It's an Ad". I doubt they actually going to try every product that they are advertising, to make wording "suggestion" be even close to the truth. That said, I don't understand, why would somebody use Firefox instead of Chrome, Edge, or Safari if they ad in-browser ads.
I never saw a fundraising like the ones from Wikipedia.
