Do you still use the official version of Firefox (not a fork) now that their new ToS have dropped?

No.

No

Since the announcement of the new ToS, I deleted both the official version AND Librewolf. Debating on whether to keep Firefox Focus or not

Nope. Librewolf, Mullvad Browser, and Tor Browser only now.

I haven't used FireFox in years. Only used it for the "Video DownloadHelper" addon to grab videos from websites, but that extension is working in Brave Browser now.

Dropped Firefox a while ago. Platform stability went off a cliff. They got in bed with Google and sold their soul.

From a performance and privacy standpoint, feels like Brave is better. Disable all of the "Web3" and AI stuff and use as is to maintain a non-unique fingerprint. The built-in ad blocker uses many of the same sources as uBlock origin and just works. Still, I wish it was quicker/easier to disable the bloat.

Deleted firefox. Librewolf, chromium, brave.

I never used official Firefox in a long time.

Hardening forks is my jam, but so is hardening Brave.

Wow, everyone who responded has left Mozilla's Firefox, either after the ToS drop, or earlier.

I mean, I get it, there is good reason and I'm bailing on them too, but it still sucks to see an organization that I've liked since at least Firefox 3.x go down the crapper.

I'm glad to hear people are largely going to community maintained browsers though, again, at least of the people who responded.

It’s a damn shame…

Thanks for the heads up! I've been using Firefox as a secondary browser with only one tab open. Been like that for years. I just downloaded Librewolf and changed. I prefer Brave.

Yes I do. Still compiling firefox.
