Sheesh. Out of the 20 comments in this thread this is the only one that actually addressed the contents of the article, the rest of them were all talking about what other browser they were using or going to be using now or just vaguely griping about how much they hate AI.

Are there any other Firefox communities that are actually about Firefox?

    I've used Firefox for a long ass time but let's be honest here.. a LOT of recent history has been trying to figure out how to turn off whatever new feature they've been putting energy into. Their community sees them as a tool and they see themselves as an ecosystem. That disconnect is a problem.

    Honestly, sometimes it feels like folks are more obsessed about AI than Big Tech CEOs are. With native vertical tabs, tab groups, and the new profiles, there are more new things in Firefox I've been excited about than in the years before, but everybody's only talking about AI.

    Why not talk about that stuff instead of AI? That's on the new CEO, not the community.

    This reads like marketing, but also other browsers have this stuff anyway? It's not a selling point anymore.

    It's just a list of recent additions I'm excited about. Of course they come on top of a browser I was already consciously using, so they're just there to sweeten the deal, not as unique selling points by themselves.
