How can we as users provide funding for open software like Firefox, in the same way that Wikipedia receives crowdfunding? At the very least as a supplement to the money they receive from Google. And even better, to fund more research projects, like their sponsorship of research into Rust and WebAssembly.
I got the impression that the Qutebrowser project /would like/ to use Gecko, but finds this infeasible because of the manner in which Gecko is developed together with Firefox.
Also, if you say you don't like this - corporate monopoly ==>> corporate abuse of monopoly - then how about a bit of action, to go with your words?
Sometimes I wonder where Firefox might be today if, in the last 10 years, it had competent leadership singularly focused on delivering the absolute best browser in existence.

On desktop, FF supports the best vertical nested tab tree I have seen. What I’ve seen on chrome is laughably amateurish with huge chunks of wasted space due to unmodifiable(?) padding elements
Extension name?
Firefox removed tab grouping for some reason. I think the only feature I miss in FF from Chrome. And Tab group saving.
Sideberry is what I use: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/sidebery
If only they properly supported PWAs, I would be all in. I like having certain websites in my taskbar and the future is looking like a lot of software is going to be web-based, with the OS becoming a "launcher" for websites if you will (cf. ChromeOS)

What does it mean for HN to "support" punycode? That `Apple Vision Pro 2 | xn--80ak6aa92e.com` will appear as `[...] | apple.com`?
