I fear for the digital literacy of Gen Alpha

Well you're in luck, there's the Pleroma and Misskey family of apps out there that are ActivityPub compatible. Pleroma also has Akkoma as well, and there are far too many Misskey forks to count. Both of them support S3 I believe.

They didn't even make it available on tablets

I personally feel like stadia was a self-fulfilling prophecy. It shut down because people didn't use it, and they didn't use it because they were afraid of it shutting down like Google always does with stuff

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

You can, but that's not the point. The idea is to ask users to choose upon opening the app for the first time. It's an already common statistic that most people never actually change any settings beyond basic personalization. It's part of why Google spends so much money on setting Google Search as the default engine.

The clickbait in this article is so bad, I thought it was a security vulnerability or something, but it's just something else related to Mozilla again.

I'm still genuinely curious if Mozilla is going to actually accept a renewal for the search deal with Google, or if they're actually going to start practicing with a praise and try implementing that search engine selection screen.

I have no idea what you mean by stack, but you definitely don't deserve downvotes for this. You can use whatever you want.

Because Mozilla really doesn't care about what people think anymore. They're an incredibly bureaucratic group dealing with a lot of red tape placed as a force for good that doesn't always meet the mark. It's mainly the reason Firefox doesn't have a lot of things (that it honestly should have)

Also, Firefox is a completely original browser but it doesn't have a "chromium" version the browser like Google Chrome does. Both of the Firefox commercial product and the source code compile to the same thing.

Isn't this what everyone wanted though? The freedom to choose browsers? Or are we going to start mandating Gecko because that's what everyone here believes to be the most ethical?
