You're absolutely right, but I'm trying to retain a shred of optimism, especially with a high amount of focus and interest on this area lately with projects like Ladybird and even new Gopher and Gemini clients.

If the vast majority of endusers want to live in the moat, I can't stop them, but at least I'd like an alternative to explore interesting content even if my bank, etc will never support it.

At least banks are regulated enough that I don't expect their websites to be running full-page video ads anytime soon.

It's past time to give up on Mozilla.

I told our dev teams to not even bother testing because, on our b2b site, Firefox usage was under 0.01%. That is not a typo. I can't spend dev time on that.

They're doing the same, and now playing VC, an industry at which they have no apparent expertise.
