    because the default Firefox is either more convenient for most normal users or gets them more funding because of corporate sponsors

    privacy and convenience is always a tradeoff so you can't just make firefox really private like librewolf and expect mass adoption

      I get you. But Firefox is not mass adopted, so you can assume its only the privacy concerned people. If you are about features, Firefox is good. But for the most part, and for people that dont care, Chrome is just as good, but with Webapps, using your phone as a 2FA key, flashing damn GrapheneOS through a browser, faster speed and supposedly a more secure sandbox.

      Firefox relies on Google, but Google has no reason to support it anymore. So this funding will probably vanish soon.
