Friend gave me access to his Adobe account (I'm never giving Adobe money again), and it looks like they don't even support Firefox. That means I'm not using even the one remaining browser-based Adobe service that's left.

Mildly infuriating = I have been parroting Firefox evangelism mindlessly.
This sub was complete shit on reddit too, why did I think it'll be any better here?
Definitely this. I am kind of tired of people. Mindlessly worshiping Firefox as if Mozilla doesn't have a bad financial track on It's CEOs giving themselves raises and also being relatively heavily funded by Google
I want to enjoy Firefox and use it as my main browser, but it just simply isn't as polished as some of the chromium browsers out there. Which is saying a lot because Firefox used to be the number one browser 20 years ago.
They have absolutely no audience in mind when developing Firefox aside from "everyone", and his other browsers continue implementing of a variety of different functions out of the box, Mozilla either:
A. Implemented as a browser extension that gets abandoned (split screen tabs) B. Never gets implemented at all. So a third party steps in and makes an inferior version (tab groups)
And then in some cases, removing functionality from the browser under some lame excuse like "nobody was using this", when in fact, someone was using that feature.
All of that coupled with a lack of any transparency from the development team with something like a fleshed out road map or anything like that. Instead just a string of promises. Which would be fine and expected out of an open source project, if Mozilla wasn't a multi-million dollar corporation.
Of course, on Lemmy, the open source federated network, everyone here will glorify and put Mozilla on a pedestal as The Lord and Savior of FOSS and the internet as a whole. When there is absolutely nothing that makes them special
Mindlessly worshipping and understanding the advantage of a truly FOSS browser over one owned by the biggest data harvesting organization the world has ever seen are two pretty different things.
Honestly it feels to me like there are some people here paid to be trolls by Google, because their arguments are so incredibly lame that I can't see any other reason they'd exist.
As if Mozilla isn't paid millions by Google
It is, but it got to this because of people like some in this comment thread.
"Why have variety, why try anything different, competition? No idea what that is, I'ma just keep using my google chrome, to search things on my google search engine, that comes up with google youtube results, while serving me google ads and google trackers on my already google owned web browser. Oh, and at the end of the day, let me check my google gmail to see if I've missed anything from the day. And adblockers? They are piracy, manifest v3 brings a lot of features to the table and isn't just a shallow attempt to kill adblockers."
It's OK if you don't wanna use firefox, but it needs to exist, not just symbolically and bullshit like this needs to be talked about more. People need to complain about it, instead of blaming mozilla for "not having feature parity" (which is complete bullshit).
And what is your point exactly?
