    It’s a shame that Firefox is still heavily reliant on Google. It’s not chrome but we really do need some competition in this space that doesn’t feed the monster and is also not safari lol.

          Oh yeah, good point. Well at least that’s just a deal to set the default search engine. Is there more?

            More, as far as I know. Google has to at least keep it afloat, or else be accused of being a monopoly. It’s a small price to pay for them.

              Much like Microsoft bailing out Apple back in the day.

              Finance an underdog so when someone complains about anti-competitiveness, you can point your finger at them and claim there’s healthy competition.

          That’s right. If chrome didn’t suck that much, no one would be funding firefox. Thanks Google!

        Something like 90% of Mozilla’s funding comes from Google paying them to make Google the default search engine in Firefox.
