Ever opened a bunch of tabs only to realize none of them have what you need? Or felt like you’re missing something valuable in a maze of hyperlinks?

    If it is ON DEVICE and you can just disable it. Then i think i even would like that.

    I have been running Firefox since before 1.0. I was using it when it was called Firebird. I was using it when it was called Netscape Navigator. I always supported it, even when performance was lagging behind IE or Chrome. I don’t know if I can go on much longer if Mozilla keeps trying to shove AI crap down my throat. Sad.

      Simple, you don’t opt into it. Problem solved. You’re welcome.

        I know that. Nobody is forcing me to use it.

        But now I’ll have a browser with a large, useless, disabled binary blob attached. Do I want this in my system?

            How much useless space can a program take up before we are allowed to complain about it

            If you played around with local small LLMs you know that it still needs a few hundred megs at least.

            I don’t really care about the space, I just don’t want it in my systems.
