firefox is like windows nowadays, where youre constantly having to disable new fucked up shit they've just introduced. like some kind of spying or a peggle extreme advert or something. what a scam. anyone who tells you its a 'good' browser at this stage is kind of a mark imo

every new and successively more inane javascript framework that came out in the last 15 years was another salvo for google's embrace-extend strategy to "make the web so Fucked Up that the task of creating a browser with less than 30 million lines of code becomes impossible", and you all fell for it! maybe like 9 web developers pushed back against the 25,000 monthly blog posts extolling the virtues of yet another new way to do something on a computer which they had already solved at xerox in 1977

@jk Remember when web pages were two files, at most? One .html and, if the developer was particularly keen on things, one .css? And, together, those files rarely exceeded a few MB?
Pepperidge Farm remembers, and so do we.
