@jesterchen @duke_of_germany ah, I thought 🤷 was well understood to mean "I don't know/care, I just want to see the results". It's pretty commonly used, but clearly not commonly enough. Sorry!

@duke_of_germany @firefoxwebdevs sadly it doesn't matter what Firefox users want anymore, overpaid CEOs, focus on AI and other side-software, no focus on the browser. Mozilla really has thrown it all away. I moved on a while back. I'm hoping Servo engine reaches stable release soon and we start seeing real browsers again.
@justin @duke_of_germany @firefoxwebdevs What makes you think the Servo devs won’t make a slopbrowser once it’s time to monetize?
@duke_of_germany @firefoxwebdevs @davidgerard @tante Currently I think if someone wants extensions, they could appear, but in first place Mozilla should focus on improving browser itself and left additional things for other time or for third parties. Just setting priorities, I guess they could do some research in their user base opinion and find really most needed features.

you might add : I want an "opt-in" button
@Tacitus @duke_of_germany @firefoxwebdevs @tante jake's already tried "well what even *is* opt in, it's so impossibly complicated you know"
(it isn't, make it an extension)
@duke_of_germany @firefoxwebdevs This is a so much better way to select options. In the survey above you have to read the question, understand the negation, stop, pause, think, process the different options, ...
The second one just asks what should be done (positive) and gives underatandable choices.
Please, let's all make surveys as easy as The Duke did. 🙂
@duke_of_germany @firefoxwebdevs Oh, and please use clear choices with unambiguous answers. What does "🤷♀️" even mean in the first survey?
- I don't know.
- I don't care.
- I lack sufficient deep knowledge about what AI actually is, though I do get the feeling that it's more than just LLMs, but how would I know? The privacy intrusions and energy sources both used to create LLMs in the first place do *really* bother me, especially in the shadows of Metallica v. Napster and the social inequity that is now used by companies like OpenAI. Also, I want to crawl to bed, eat pizza and pet my cat.
- Something else...
So, dear Firefoxians, what does 🤷♀️ mean in your survey?

Immediately restore the work of japanese language translators that you paved over with AI slop

I don't care as long as it doesn't interfere with proper browsing.

It's spying on you. All Gen AI is an espionage attack surface for the technofascist state.
You might not notice that ICE and Trump's buddies can look at your web surfing whenever they want.
But you won't see it, so that's okay! 🙃
