I hope to god one day the developers at Mozilla finally get tired of this shit and fork everything under a new org.

Fuck off with more services and give me my integrated FTP client back. No one who uses Mozilla software wants more cloud shit or online services from Mozilla.

I don't think that's unanimous. I'd like to use Firefox Relay, myself, and I'm willing to give thundermail a chance.

Used to think I'd go full Proton eventually, but leaning more towards a diverse set of service providers, nowadays. It's also my hope that these services allow Mozilla to depend less on companies like Google, and more on the users they ought to serve, which would be healthier for the org and better for users.

integrated FTP client

Why though? SFTP is leagues better.

For transfers between systems you own yes, but when grabbing a Linux iso from a public server FTP works fine.

For years Firefox allowed you to crawl FTP sites natively.
