As long as the "AI" remains disableable I can keep using a firejailed Firefox as my second browser, behind Pale Moon. I refuse to ever use anything Chrome-ish.

I miss the good old days!

Quoting: emphySome people, when seeing such success, wonder how they can monetise it better. Team cherry wondered how they could better thank their fans.

In fact, I think their approach is THE best way to monetize considering their circumstances.

It baffles me when I see a little indie game, that has been released for like 1 year, has maybe 500 reviews, mostly positive, and then I scroll down and see the effen thing already has like 2 pieces of DLC for it.

And any interest I had in said game vanishes immediately, in fact I often put such games in the ignore list, and this is more common then it should be.

Steam has something like 30 million users logged in at any given time, even if you take away bots, alt accounts and people who just don't buy games, and just play free to play game as service garbage, you are still left I'd say with at the very least 15-20 million potential buyers.

How moronic one has to be to believe that the answer to making more money out of their little indie game, which has sold maybe 5-10k copies at best, is to release effen DLC for it... yeah, let us milk the few people who bought our game for a few extra bucks.

No, you should try and pursue the millions of people who haven't bought it, that's where the potential lies, and you do that by making the purchase more attractive, and keeping churning out free content for it is a fantastic way to do that, plus you build a ridiculous amount of customer loyalty

I had a weird problem the other day with Steam OS. I was in the privacy settings when Steam OS suddenly crashed, displaying a persistent green screen of death.

I shut down my machine for 10 seconds, then turned it back on. The SSD wasn't being recognized. I had to shut it down and turn it back on again for it to work.

Has anyone else experienced this kind of issue ?

This is the very first time I've had an SSD crash like this...

You can never go wrong with a free expansion because if it disappoints, you didn't spend a dime on it to begin with.

It means you will use AI and you will like it. There is no escape. Consume!

I mean I know the Mozilla hate train is always loaded with pitchforks and ready to leave the station, but isn't that a bit disingenuous? So far Mozilla have stayed true to their first statement and AI is always optional. Should that change I will uninstall Firefox in a heartbeat but until then I'm perfectly happy with it as my default browser. I don't see AI being any different from other services like search, email etc in that I will use it if it respects my privacy.

Well no, because right now it's just words, the settings to turn it all off are hidden behind flags you have to know how to find to disable.

You're referring to the different chat bot providers that are optional and can be turned off in the settings menu? To even remotely compare this to what Google's planning with Chrome borders on FUD.

I'm tired (of cards), boss.

Same, I hate them.
I feel like cards are more often than not a crutch in tabletop games to emulate computer game mechanics. To put that back into a computer game seems... nonsensical.

Every time someone mentions declining market share and uses that as a reason to introduce something horrible into Firefox, I (figuratively) bang my head on the wall. They have an audience – users that care about privacy, customizability and being different than Chrome. And they do everything they can to drive them away in favour of some imaginary Chrome users that can be convinced to switch over to a Chrome-copy and has the technical knowledge to make the switch. That does not make sense.

They will always be the nerd that imitates the popular jock and ends up alienating everyone.

Quoting: doragasuAnother verified game that shouldn't...

Have you tested it with this update?

No, but I have seen how it runs on a video from Deck Wizard and it runs the same it did previously (that is pretty poorly).

I have playtime 60% Linux, 32% Steam Deck and 9% Windows. The shame of 9% windows. Also yes, I know that adds up to 101%, that's Valve's maths not mine. I'm taking the extra 1% from the Windows part to reduce shame.

Quoting: pbI have 95% on Linux and 5% on SteamDeck. Notably, I also played some hours through GFN, both on PC and SD, I wonder if they filtered it out or if they are now able to tell the device behind the GFN, because I know for sure it counted as playing on Windows in the past.

I don't have that stat on mine. How do I get the that? Do some users just not have it? Are "Here are a few of your highlights..." random?

More than likely though I'm missing an obvious button right?

(EDIT: as suspected, I was in fact missing that the page was taking while to load and I could then scroll further down).

Quoting: CharlieTheMadHatterIt's sad to see Mozilla making the same bad choices. Prioritizing shareholder profits seems to come above everything else.

It's nonprofit. So, are this shareholder profits in room with you?

Firefox go extinct. This is not plan of some evil shareholders. This is attempt to get some traction and make enough income to survive. Just reminder, without firefox, forks also die. Librewolf included.

Quoting: CreepioI wanted a browser that has feature parity with regular Firefox, but doesn't add a crap ton of unnecessary extras. I just want Firefox, but without the crap.

it still has the tabs on top, though ;p

I'm really interested in Servo, but not quite there yet. I like Epiphany, but its extension support is not quite there yet either (I mainly need ublock, bitwarden and vertical tabs). Is LibreWolf the only remaining option?

Don't read too much into that. It's just a slogan for investors. When the ai bubble bursts, everything will go back to normal.

I always thought what a web browser was for, was to go to the place on the web I told it to go to, and show me what's there. I don't see how AI helps with that. And even if I can opt out, and even if the AI doesn't do anything too pernicious, if the people making my browser are doing this all-in, bet the farm, put all their effort into the AI . . . then presumably they don't have a whole lot of effort left over to make the browser not suck.

These days, quite often if you ARE the customer you are STILL the product. Various execs realized why have one income stream when you can have two?

Quoting: StellaIts a cool game but i lost interest after i could not beat Fungus on normal difficulty after trying at least 7 times. It was just to difficult for me and was blocking progression to all the other pathogens.

Yes, I agree, Fungus is probably the hardest one, and least fun, of all types

Every company forcing AI into everything is honestly just a bad move. It's a buzz word and it's ruining everything.
