this is what happens when you make a deal with the DEVIL.
Thunderbird was spun off from Mozilla a few years ago. It is separate from FF so will probably not die if the browser does.
Today's Firefox almost has a chromium "feel," which I don't like. I prefer the Floorp browser because it's based on Mozilla Firefox and has the Gecko engine. It's open source and highly customizable. It works like the old Firefox used to work and is my default browser. I love it!
It really doesn't matter because Google search is pretty much crap anyway.
So how long have I got before Firefox and Thunderbird stop working now. Is there a recommended replacement for a free email client? I need it to run multiple email addresses
If Firefox dies and all Chromium based browsers are eventually forced to abandon manifest v2 then there will be no more ad blocking on the internet. Big tech wins and the consumer gets squashed like a bug.
it went too far. I support a stop of this practice to pay companies for making Google the default search engine. Mozilla has a lot of time now to find other sources of money.
I love Firefox, but at this time and moment, I don't care if they run out of money. Why? Because of the bad decisions and waste of money by Mozilla. Just look at how much the CEO is paid, for example. I'm sure that the project will be continued by other capable people, and if not, then I'll stick with Brave. It won't be the end of the world.
I use duck duck go.
