Since I've been mostly using #LibreWolf and Tor Browser @torproject anyway, and almost never plain #Firefox, it wasn't a big deal to say goodbye and to delete Firefox from all devices (mastodon.de)

Since I've been mostly using #LibreWolf @librewolf and Tor Browser @torproject anyway, and almost never plain #Firefox, it wasn't a big deal to say goodbye and to delete Firefox from all devices today.

The new "Terms of Use" and the modified privacy notice have crossed a red line, I do no longer give Mozilla the benefit of doubt.

Brief and good summary of Mozilla's changes by @sarahjamielewis:

TBH I have no idea why somebody would so persistently and patiently work on discrediting and sinking their own flagship.

Does librewolf or any other alternatives offer syncing between devices? I know it's not a great thing for privacy, but I find it really helpful for work to have easy access to different tabs, passwords and stuff between my phone, laptop and desktop. I would love to switch from mozilla, but that's what's currently keeping me...

Librewolf does, though you have to enable it first. Work fine for me. Never really had an issue with it.

Aaaand i used a search engine for you: https://librewolf.net/docs/faq/#can-i-use-firefox-sync-with-librewolf-is-it-safe-to-do-so

But you can even self host your own sync server: https://github.com/mozilla-services/syncserver
