Hello and welcome to @Corp's semiannual laughing at Furryfox users thread.
Little background. There are three groups of people I feel need to go.
1. Nazis.
2. Commies.
3. FurryFox users.
It today's FurryFox drama we have something not related to coping about there ever shrinking user base as Chromium browser supremacy ravages onwards to near domination.
Ads? In my FurryFox?
I suspect the poster is a chud due to hiding what he is reading on twitter, a known alt-nazi website
Also a massive ad that dims the background and makes you click?
Listen! We filed a Bugzilla! It's just a bug, right? RIGHT!?!?!!?!!
And no, supporting this under the guise of trying to earn revenue away from Google is a bit silly. A pop-up is a pop-up.
A browser that goes to great lengths to block all of the annoyances of the web (e.g. pop-ups) allowing their own annoyances through is just favoritism of itself. It is no better than Google Chrome plugging Google or > > > Edge plugging Bing Chat or whatever is new on the block.
Last thing Firefox needs is to be browser with built-in ads. In this arena, the first experience is the only one that matters. Do not let it be ads.
Funny thing is Chrome has a very clean UI. It's by nature because Google automatically benefits if you use the web, and more so if you use it through Chrome. Chrome doesn't really plug Google considering Google is the default search on all major browsers except Edge, and switching to a different provider is very easy (Google services do plug Chrome, on the other hand).
Meanwhile on a new Firefox install, I have to disable pocket, sponsored shortcuts, the new pinned tab, sponsored news articles (which are also present in Chrome iirc), and skip through the faceless girl telling me about diverse colors or some shit. Firefox is still by far the better choice, but yeah it's initially a bit annoying on a fresh install.
And you do this.
I love how fast the mods are locking down conversations relating to this topic.
Firefox is really sticking out for the wrong reasons today.
They do it for free for free software
Lots of upset Furryfox users. If you're a FurryFox user there are several cures.

Idk why people think Mozilla is this saint compant vs google when mozilla is constantly adding new forms of "optional" ad ware something they have been doing for years. Like its somehow worse and more egregious then Microsoft's adware. Like what is the appeal beyond "its not chromium!" when its just as bloated as chrome now and has endless baked in adware.

High customizability. Default firefox is bad, but it gives you a lot of cowtools, moreso than chrome, and if you tinker with it you can make it faster and lighter than chrome. For new users it is hard, but for experienced users it's trivial because you can literally go to a website and copy a settings preset for whatever configuration you like

Brave browser is run by a nazi who hates gay people. If you see someone running Brave on their phone then destroying the phone is self-defense before they call nazis to come kill you

The Firefoxsisters that shill their meme browser also spread disinfo about Brave being a crypto-miner. They say a lot of shit about Brave but Brave continues to be the best browser despite their seethe.
