Paradox

@MajesticElevator
System1 is an advertising company. Waterfox has been influenced by them. How can a browser that claims to be privacy-oriented be under an advertising campaign? It's as if Chrome suddenly started caring about user privacy.

The story is from '23 and I have no interest in Waterfox. I use Firefox with user.js - a custom configuration settings file taken from Github.

@MajesticElevator What, Waterfox?

@jon@vivaldi.net I like Firefox as a platform, but don't like it as a browser

@H2207 @original_reader Waterfox isn't bad, it works fast (it used to), but it was under the wing of System1. It has only recently been released from them.
