Tuba is now added to Gnome Circle. That's a good news.
It’s about their FakeSpot subsidiary.

Protect your privacy Firefox is committed to empowering you with information about review reliability while respecting your privacy. We use Oblivious HTTP (OHTTP) for Review Checker. When Review Checker is turned on, we use information about the products you visit on Amazon, Best Buy and Walmart to analyze the reviews, but by using OHTTP we ensure Mozilla cannot link you or your device to the products you have viewed.

Also not what I said.
Source: 2022 Hey look, years ago. And your other page was 2018.
Mozilla started selling private data to advertising companies in 2023
(Assuming this is about Pocket) Is it too much to expect from you to know the difference between aggregated non-PII data vs PII data?
Yes, like publishing a new article every day just to prove their commitment to end-users' privacy.
Incremental updates to articles, hosted literally on home page, with details of newer privacy features is so old school.
Got it. Thanks for the clarification.

Incorrect, that's actually from 2022 B.C.
And your other page was 2018
Correct, the snap of article from 2018 looks exactly identical to 2024 instance with ZERO modifications. Mozilla finally gave us on Privacy it seems, as no one bothered to update that page since 2018.
Wait a sec, they also haven't updated this article as well since 2020. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/browsers/compare/chrome/

~~but Mozilla itself doesn’t want to broach the topic.~~
Again, a reminder that Mozilla plans to continue support for the Manifest Version 2 blocking WebRequest API (this API powers, for example, uBlock Origin) while simultaneously supporting Manifest Version 3.
~~Years ago, Mozilla would explicitly call ad blocking a privacy feature, and proclaim it explicitly.~~
Ahem! https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/features/ > https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/features/adblocker/
Cooking up conspiracy theory instead of research is easy, is not it?
... because Mozilla already clarified their position on this last year.
TL;DR
No, Mozilla is NOT ditching manifest v2.
Well what’s happening with MV2 you ask? Great question – in case you missed it, Google announced late last year their plans to resume their MV2 deprecation schedule. Firefox, however, has no plans to deprecate MV2 and will continue to support MV2 extensions for the foreseeable future. And even if we re-evaluate this decision at some point down the road, we anticipate providing a notice of at least 12 months for developers to adjust accordingly and not feel rushed.

Those won't can access it from Firefox on Linux, use User-Agent Switcher add-on as a workaround.
Just installed it, and my initial impression -
- Thanks for dark mode :)
- UI responsiveness is good.
- Need an option to increase/decrease width of reading pane.
- Need multiple themes like Wikipedia website.
- Require smooth scrolling (I'm on 240 Hz monitor but scroll doesn't feel smooth on this app, though apparently uses GPU acceleration)
The whole discussion on that pull request is extremely sketchy, IMO.
