Firefox. It is the only thing keeping Google from total internet domination

Isn’t most of the Firefox revenue coming from Google ?

What does that have to do with Google’s ability to force their view of the world through the dominance of the browser share market?

Yes, they need Firefox to avoid monopoly.

Scary to think about. Pretty much down to 3. Chrome, Firefox and safari.

It is the same fight that we all fought against Microsoft IE but Google has been a lot smarter with their shit fuckery

im worried about Mozillas ability to keep growing Firefox. They laid off a lot of their firefox team a few years ago and have been dipping into more commercial interests.. we really need Mozilla to be the FOSS counter to big tech.
