The left really wants war.

And a good many of us are beginning to want to grant them their wish.

Two things libs hate most are the 1st and 2nd amendments.

The one thing we hate most are libs.

Sooner or later, we’ll have to settle this.

And, general rule is that sooner is better than later.

That is too bad because I have been a big supporter of firefox over ie chrom and even safari. Now I have to go install opera on a bunch of devices.

These people / companies have no idea how their decisions just make us stronger and more determined to take our country back.

I may use FF at work, but I certainly do NOT have to use it on my home PC anymore.

Mozilla was the company that in effect, forced their CEO Brenda Eich ( the inventor of JavaScript and founder of the Mozilla Project) to resign in 2014 after someone discovered that he privately, without fuss, contributed a few thousand dollars to California’s Proposition 8 which called for the affirmation of traditional marriage in California.

As far back as 2014 I already knew that the employees and higher ups of this company were INTOLERANT of any dissenting beliefs.

Eich went on to found BRAVE Software, an Internet browser platform company. I have been using this browser as well as the Epic Privacy browser since.

Brave is a free and open-source web browser developed by Brave Software, Inc. based on the Chromium web browser. It blocks ads and website trackers, and provides a way for users to send cryptocurrency contributions in the form of Basic Attention Tokens to websites and content creators.

As of 2020, Brave has been released for Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS. As of 2017 Brave supported five search engines by default, including their partner, DuckDuckGo.

I heartily recommend it. It is robust and well designed. Screw Mozilla and Firefox. May it die the death of abandonment.

Mozilla revealed their total TWOT status years back (no, not a typo) when they hounded a senior co-worker out of office for not worshipping progressive policies. Quite the scandal.
I dumped the never-ending Firefox update scam after that. I use SeaMonkey as an alternative and an ESR version of Firefox for grunt work. (ESR is a version that is frozen but has all the security updates — a memory hog, tho).

Mozilla: The only ‘blood’ was of an unarmed conservative women shot by a police officer. She died at the scene.

Pretend she was black and her name was Floyd...

If speaking the truth and valuing freedom & liberty makes me a “bad actor” then it is a moniker I will proudly bear.

They all seem to be liberal and or lack functionality that Firefox excelled at. I use Firefox ESR supplemented by Quantum and other and up to date (and safer) browsers, with different purposes. I asked Quora and MS answers this question and received zero replies:

It seems that mainly due to security and speed aspects, then unlike legacy Firefox ESR 59.9 (with Tab Mix Plus and a few other extensions. which enabled more key customizations than the whole of Edge):

1. You cannot make it show multiple tab rows (you can with Firefox
Quantum but it takes one
[1]of the hacks. And unless the latter is a portable version, it cannot run concurrently with FF ESR)

.2. You cannot adjust max or min tab width. And the more you open the thinner they get, and all look the same. (except the active tab has an close X)

3. You cannot close a non-active tab by just placing your cursor on it the top right
to get a X to click on (so unless you activate it, you need to R. click on it and hit close tab).

4. You cannot enable different colored tabs as with the legacy Colorful Tabs extension (NOT the one in Quantum).

5. You cannot choose to open links in other installed browsers via right click.

6. You cannot toggle btwn the most recently accessed tabs using the Ctrl+Tab switch (and its Alt+Tab alternative messes up switching btwn applications).

7. Edge has a very poor spell checker and the dictionary is hard to find in the drive even if you could edit it (as you can with that of Firefox).

8. You cannot create more than one profile (as far as i know).

9. I know no extension that saves your text box posts such as this, like the Lazarus legacy FF extension did/does.

10. MS does not make it easy to set another browser as the default one for all html documents and links (details too long for here).

11. There is no option to keep the Find/Search bar open across tabs (handy in searches), meaning you need to do the search new for every tab.

12. There is no option via right click on a tab to choose “Copy link.”

Since MS writes the software for Windows, than it ought to be able to create a real "utility truck" browser - and which I am sure would become a classic for "power users" - rather than just another minimalist Chrome clone.

Currently transitioning to Brave.com. So far seems okay. When comfy cozy, will uninstall mewzilla/firefux. My own little deplatforming. 😂🔌📴

She's a moron. She couldn't cut it at Fenwick & West but the Kali kadre saw she could be manipulated, as she proved when complicit (LOL) onboarding Eichs again after the fracas from his 1K paltry donation to Prop8.

So many Freepers are technophobes or Luddites or both - not said to be rude -- but literally have no idea how many of these Kalifornia silicon rubes are absolutely toothless. This girl has no power, other than maybe permitting Firefox to be hijacked remotely, utilized by malware, etc.
