LOL Yeah, I get it...Thus my non-serious response. Who know why people do anything? Personally, I can't downvote, as it seems to be disabled by my current server. There have only been a few times that I've seen a post or comment really need a good old downvote. There are capable orgs out there, for now, I suppose in their perspective it is only Mozilla who could handle it. However, open source code can be read and seen by anyone, so that means there are people out there familiar enough with Firefox to take it on if needs must when the devil drives.

ROFL I wasn't suggesting that you were suggesting that. Like any open source project, uh, talent tends to pick up important things that get abandoned. It would be an amusing turn of events, probably in the distant future when AI becomes a thing. That a program can start its own journey of self-improvement. 😂

I know a lot of women who play video games, I even like some of the games they like. The Sims 4 for example, Animal Crossing, Story of Seasons games; these ladies even like games which men tend to prefer like COD (that I as a man can't stand anything multi-player or competitive). The problem with them revealing their gender online is that oftentimes they are faced with harassment by dudes bros online. It can get pretty gross quickly, so you'll likely never know if the women surrounding you play video games because they'd only share that information if, as a person, you were one to be considered safe.

Provided that someone with enough skill takes up the mantle of maintaining a fork...I'm sure it will be fine!

What a creeper, it's almost he wants to do something similar; Yikes, is all I have to say.

I'll let you stare at the stars and imagine a better world then. 😂

ROFL This is Apple we're talking about, the slowest to innovate in the tech space. That would be a Samsung maneuver, in my opinion (if that giant tech corpo would even consider a FOSS ad-free search engine). Apple is just now getting some customization options this September with an update, something Samsung and third party launchers have pretty much solved years ago.

I suspect that Apple will choose to open up the choice of what search engine a user would like to use instead of Google. To avoid playing favorites or getting into an oversaturated market.

Oh for fun! I don't want Mozilla to go down, Firefox is one of the few non-Chromium web browsers; I'm glad that Google is pronounced as a monopoly, as it is true. However, for every good thing, there is a terrible curse that shows how much our system needs to be changed. It will be so heartening to not have Apple using Google Search by default, as the results are fucking shit. They could survive the lack of Investor Daddy's cash.

During my time of Pop!_OS I never had that experience; it might be worth checking the system logs to figure out if something unusual is afoot! An event that coincides with an incoming update.

Wat? That's like a maliciously clever way to make people earn a Darwin Award.
