The author reflects on their long-standing relationship with Firefox, highlighting its speed, customization options, and commitment to privacy. Despite previous frustrations with Mozilla's decisions, the author finds that Firefox remains a top choice among open-source browsers. Unlike Chrome, Edge, and Safari, which are developed by large corporations with vested interests, Firefox is backed by the non-profit Mozilla Foundation. This independence allows for greater transparency, as users can access the open-source code. Firefox's built-in tracker blocking enhances privacy, making it a safer option compared to its competitors. Additionally, Firefox does not heavily integrate with proprietary services, which can lead to a more streamlined browsing experience. The browser's AI features are opt-in, giving users control over their use. The author notes that with the Digital Markets Act in Europe, Firefox has seen increased adoption, suggesting that user choice can lead to significant changes in the market.
