This browser has been my preferred way to use the internet for years, after Chrome overloaded theirs with unneeded features that slowed the performance. I switched to Mozilla products because of their lightweight and private browsing options. Today, you pushed an "AI Kill Switch" instead of listening to community feedback that largely demanded the removal of all features using generative AI, and this is my final straw. I don't know who in the company is pushing for this, but if there's even the slightest chance of them reading my words; your product is shit and will remain shit for the rest of it's existence. AI features introduce security risks, slow performance noticably, and have such bad political pr attached to them, there's no crawling yourself back from this. You've labeled yourself as another ai company willing to burn all goodwill from your userbase for the percieved chance at acquiring profit. The bubble will pop, and you and your market value will go the way of every other internet browser that was okay for time but got too big for it's britches. You're an idiot for ever believing the ai hype and deciding to bet your entire company on the gamble. Firefox is, at best, only useful for downloading another browser, now. Way to become a direct competitor with Internet Explorer again.

I, and tens of millions of other people, use Grok as the AI chatbot. Why is it not included among the AI available?

I have found that Grok is more likely to provide a balanced answer than chatGPT, which usually swings to the left, and has a tendency to just make stuff up. I haven't re… (read more)

I have found that Grok is more likely to provide a balanced answer than chatGPT, which usually swings to the left, and has a tendency to just make stuff up. I haven't really tried the rest on your list, I haven't even heard of some of them, for that matter. I don't understand why you couldn't include it, when you included all the rest. While I'm at it, why did you remove the upvote/down-vote in the new tab suggested sites? I was down-voting all of the far-left progressive garbage, out of tens of thousands of pages you never showed a single right-wing suggestion from sites like Fox, New York Post, etc., or even the center, like The Hill, but once I got rid all of the garbage from Huffington, Salon, Vox, Guardian, CNN, there were some good articles by sites like AP, Smithsonian, Scientific American, etc. that showed up and were center or center-left news, not propaganda. I'm giving up on the tab suggestions for now, I'll check it again sometime to see if you are still ignoring the 32% of the population who are right-wing Republican, and the about 38% of the population who are independent/center, to continue to concentrate on the 30% who are left-wing Democrats, and more particularly the tiny percentage who are Progressives among the Democrats. Instead of increasingly becoming the browser of choice for just one part of the population, it might be a good idea to think about representing the other 70% of the population as well.

When I try to down load and save an antivirus device on my computer, I get a message saying that I don't have the permission and/or authority to do this. I think it has something to do with my browser's (https://) that I believe I must have done something to create this, however; I don't know how to undo this. Some of the messages I receive when I try to open site that I normally order things from, I can't now. Please see the statements below that appear when I click on them. My computer says that my system is up to date

Please help me, I really need to put a another good antivirus on my computer as well because I just stop the service for the webroot service that I had. Also, if you can recommend a good one that you know of, I would greatly appreciate this as well.

Thank you kindly for any help that you can do

Just quick question re the recent update relating to Chatbot usage Can multiple Chatbots be active in the sidebar instead of just one. I understand that one will have to select a different Chatbot for a specific task .. i.e. Let's say ChatGPT stay "default" but may want to use Claude for a specific question / task - I assume if so one will then first have to change the active status of Chatbot but icon can be kept in the sidebar (together with another) and then just active / change when required.

Trust it makes sense Thank You!

My passwords have been randomly disappearing from my PC. My android has the passwords intact but it will not sync in either direction. I have followed every instruction that I can find with no success.

On a couple of occasions, a successful sync has happened randomly a couple of days later.

On this occasion no syncing so far. (two days)

I am feeling that Firefox is becoming somewhat unstable, which is a shame as I have been using the browser since Noah was a lad.

Any ideas?

I know you can block it and opt out of the AI options in Firefox, but just wanted to voice my opinion.

We did not ask for it, nor do we want or need it. The bubble's gonna pop soon and then we are stuck with these AI artifacts.

By default the AI options should be blocked/off/opt out. If we want to use it, we'll opt in ourselves.
