The Puritans have been trying to ban porn here since the concept has existed, it's never stopped, and it's never going to stop. They're miserable and they want everyone else to be too. That's like most of their religion. Going to church, being ashamed of bodies, and judging people.

#333Title is a complete lie/misleading. They get a license, not ownership. Let's dissect what it actually says, and we do it backwards, because given the discussion around this subject it seems like people space out or have their mind clouded by outrage before they get to the end of the sentence: > help you [do things] as you indicate with your use of Firefox. So this already only covers things that you indicate you want…

Assuming that everything is HTTPS, what are they actually licencing? My encrypted data?
This is some Mozilla legally idiot that went WAY to far in a "cover our ass" legal document and nobody stopped to think about the potential damage this would to the Mozilla and Firefox reputation, which already isn't doing so well. They didn't even stop to think if MAYBE this needed some clarification, to avoid unwarranted speculations. It's getting increasingly clear that the people running Mozilla has absolutely no idea what they are doing, nor do they have any respect for the project they've are in charge of. At this point I wouldn't be surprise to learn that the Mozilla CEO uses Edge.

Try going to gitlab.com with librewolf, you'll see a white page with no content. Librewolf is blocked off from half the internet that uses cloudflare, so it's kind of a useless browser. Every browser that's not a majority browser will be associated with these kind of blocking risk. I can't risk access to my financially important accounts, nobody can. So to me this is not a feasible alternative. The only way to build…
This is purely FUD per my experience. I use librewolf on websites behind cloudflare and with plenty of js. They all work just as well as they did in Firefox. Librewolf sends Firefox in the user agent, and you can toggle Firefox "features" on if a website you use requires them. Not trying to convince you to switch to it--you do you. Just sharing with someone who might be reading this thread and that hasn't tried libre…
Why do you think I have a personal stake in this? Why do you feel personally attacked by my comment?
I am sorry if I somehow personally offended you!? Not sure how I could've phrased my comment differently.

#337This made me look into Firefox forks/alternatives: Librewolf [1] seems to be fairly active (last commit on Codeberg was last week) and up-to-date with the latest upstream releases (mirrors FF's versioning scheme and matches their latest). Has a nice focus on privacy and no-telemetry. Floorp [2] also looks active (last commit last week), also claims focus on privacy. Based off FF's extended support releases so it may…

I just opened that page on LibreWolf without any problems.

The amount of re-edits of your comment are a bit off the charts. Why do you think I have a personal stake in this? Why do you feel personally attacked by my comment? I am sorry if I somehow personally offended you!? Not sure how I could've phrased my comment differently.
I'm not offended in the slightest, just a very happy user who wants to encourage other people to try librewolf for themselves.

It works fine, even with JS disabled.
