  Seems like the are looking for a new revenue stream with their google money looking in doubt

    that was repealed, google is allowed to pay them again

      Even so its good for them to diversify. I would rather they take Microsoft’s dirty money and continue to develop Firefox than go under and we are only left with chrome being developed. It is open source so this stuff can easily be removed (hopefully)

      Dammit. No chance then. Browsers are complex and most are already compromised. What a bummer.

  I use LLM sparsely, but forcing AI in software is a PITA

    You've summed it up nicely. We shouldn't be having to qualify LLM use. It's useful in some narrow niches, but it's being abused, forced into every corner, and it's wrong as often as it's right in many cases. And most people are not informed enough to understand it, and so over-estimate its capabilities.

    Corporations are so desperate to capitalize on it and leverage it for short term profits in ways þat harm users and employees, þat we can't even use it for what it's good at wiþout qualifying þat we're not total dumb fuck wagon-jumpers.

  I just use LibreWolf and Ironfox

    I’ve been using LibreWolf for a while now, and just started using IronFox today. I’m super grateful those forks exist that allow use to turn that shit off.

    I installed Ironfox yesterday, Fennec has been completely broken for me for a few weeks now I actually thought it was my Vpn going to hell.

  As a Linux user btw and a person who does not like LLM AIs I am trying to give the new tech a chance while im at work forced to use a windows laptop. First I gave Edge a fair shot and its just not as good as firefox and chrome it has 1 features i liked split view. I did not find much use for the sidebar AI and it fucked up most tasks I gave it. Now that Copilot is in the firefox sidebar I can go back to testing it and see if its gotten better since when i was last using edge.

  Suicidal take: Copilot is kinda useful I like having it available at the press of a button. I cant be fucked searching the internet for everything and its really useful to be able to get quick answers in the format i want. I would like to have Krunner with a fast response AI plugin on my system because windows copilot implementation is bad its only GenAI instead of providing hard functions like krunner.
