Apparently no one remembers when Firefox changed their terms of service literally this year to become adversarial toward their own users.

Librewolf is the way to go now.

The binaries aren't signed… :’(

Also, it seems quite vague to me exactly who/what company/entity is behind it.

What does the binaries not being signed mean?

It seems waterfox (?) has a legal entity behind it for your exact reason!

No thanks. Their own devs have gladly called the project "very woke", and a "certainly quite political project".

Wow, a political free software project? Who could imagine such a thing.

Anyway sounds like you're trying to convince me to use it

You’ll find that has absolutely nothing to do with the way you choose to use the free software they produce for your benefit.

These days the term "woke" has lost almost all meaning. It used to mean being "awake" i.e. aware of socio-economic factors in society. Today, as far as I can tell, it simply refers to whatever the big corporations/alt-right doesn't like. Just like how they refer to anything left of oligarchy as "communism". To me them calling themselves "very woke" reads as "we are against anti-human behavior", which is a good thing.

I never had firefox pop up and tell me to attend a drag show or that I need to surf more diverse websites than my usual sports and news sites. how is it woke? I don't care what mozilla the org does. They jsut took a big revenue hit because of the decision against google, they won't have much money for any political endeavors other than maybe privacy and free speech on the web very soon

It’s just secured Firefox. I use it and like it
