Commitment to Manifest V2
Opening up the Android app to support all desktop extensions
Working on local 'AI' integration that doesn't send data to Mozilla
Sure, some people are against that last one, but I'm of the opinion that if AI does exist in a browser (and the market seems to be deciding that it should be) then this is how it should be done.
wanna be friends?
Mozilla isn't committing to manifest V2, they're just making changes to V3 that are different than what's specified for the sake of compatibility with what people want. They still intend on migration.
Also, microsoft edge is getting extensions as well real soon
Finally, while this is a more personal opinion, the AI integrations that Mozilla has been working on (including some of the work on large language models) is isn't particularly contributive to the Mozilla manifesto and doesn't have much to do with the web itself. It's simply seeking something out because of hype
What's your point?
