    Orrr… It’s like saying Firefox should keep on doing whatever it’s doing, and people who care will get its benefits without having to suffer its drawbacks.

      Some of the “drawbacks” are the only way Firefox works as well as it does. If Mozilla didn’t have usage telemetry data, automated crash reports, etc, Firefox would be a much worse application. This is how modern software development works when you have millions of users across a dozen or more platforms.

        Agreed. So in other words - everybody wins.

        I’m by no means under the impression that librewolf will take over to become more dominant than Firefox anytime soon. So if Firefox does the heavy lifting and does the dirty work, the community will still benefit from these better versions downstream.
