  Yes, that’s why google is paying millions to be the default.

    No, using Google makes Google money. That’s why they pay mozilla go be the default.

      And they’re not going to pay millions to be the default for a browser that no one uses.

        Google literally does pay Mozilla to make Google the default search engine in Firefox, its not some conspiracy, its a known fact.

        OK I think I see what you’re saying now:

        If everyone leaves Firefox because of this, Google would probably stop paying them to be the default search engine.

        I don’t see that as the biggest issue though. Once people are leaving, my guess is they’re just going to stop maintaining firefox regardless of how much money they get from Google. Cause why maintain a browser literally no one uses, instead of figuratively.
