Firefox has an ambitious new roadmap, the browser is also losing millions of users a month

[Honest Abe]

I've always been a big Firefox user. Far better than Chrome and Safari. I'm excited about the new features. I'm not seeing the new free VPN feature on my MacBook just yet, so I wish they wouldn't have teased about that a couple months ago while I'm still out here waiting. But I know they're rolling it out slowly. Maybe don't announce it so early next time!

What lost users? What a load of bullshit. If anything people are coming to Firefox because Google blocks ad blockers and restricts addons they don't like.

So you're claiming Firefox itself is lying about its loss of users? Down 38M in the last 4 years:

As people move away from laptop/desktop to phones as their primary tool for information the web browser is less significant. Phones have task specific apps like news aggregators etc.

That was mighty White of you to point that out...

Why is Mozilla Firefox capped at 400 Mbps download/upload, while all the other browsers can reach my contracted 1000 Mbps bandwidth (minus overhead)? I've been searching for a solution for years and not even the "AI Overview" is capable of providing it. It's all just hearsay, try this, try that, we've been reading that some users on Reddit did this and that, but none of it works.

I don't understand why people are using Chrome. I don't want a browser made by an advertising company.

FWIW, Firefox has been receiving funding from Google.
