    FF is doing great. All the have to do now is the Steam strategy. Do nothing and wait for the competition to fuck themselves over.

      You mean hope that they too don’t become subject to enshittification? I don’t have a lot of faith in that.

      Besides that, Google is controlling as fuck. They might keep fucking themselves over but there’s no way they won’t start attempting to ruin things for the rest of us.

        It seems Mozilla is not immune to the AI hype. I just hope their AI endeavour won’t kill them when the AI hype finally ends.

          Thankfully the AI use is very tame so far, used for stuff like offline alt text generation and offline translation. I’m personally still concerned about copyrights and ethics of the models used, but at least it’s directed towards providing specific features, not a magic cure-all.

            I’m more concerned with Mozilla spending its meager resources to chase some fads instead of focusing on improving firefox.

      Steam’s strategy was to be first to market and essentially the only player in the game for a decade, making themselves the default.

      Thats the problem tho, the new mozilla leadership is on the “do anything but nothing” ship. I really hope they either dont do anything too horrible or someone forks it if they do.
