Notefox: websites notes sounds really cool. I'll try that one out.

our industry-leading security standards

But man, these corporate talks. In what industry is Firefox leading??

[–] Midnitte@beehaw.org 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I mean, their privacy and security tools are pretty advanced. They're certainly leading over Chrome over reducing ad tracking.

Just because their market share is next to nothing doesn't mean they don't have good features.

But how do you determine "industry-leading"? Just because something is good does not mean its the leading system. That's my problem with such marketing fluff.

Their product might not be leading but they are sure not behind in software development. Mozilla devs work (or used to or started) on two most important projects (at least for me) Rust and Servo.

And I know about the history and use Rust myself too. But these are complete different statements. I mean its like if suddenly Xbox says our industry leading console. I get that type of vibe. I'm not saying Firefox and Mozilla wouldn't be important. It's the best web browser we have (in my opinion).

How about an addon that blocks A.I.?
