Am I the only person who thinks Mozilla needs a rework? (rant)
So the other day I was testing a new browser called waterfox. What stuck me as odd was how a small company seemed to have made Firefox so much more usable everyone. I normally use librewolf for privacy and security reasons but waterfox actually temped me to switch. (I ended up not switching for privacy and security reasons)
After I used waterfox for a bit I started thinking more and more about Mozilla the company. What are they even doing these days? It seems like they have stopped with the innovation. They could of setup a competitor to google with a custom nextcloud but they haven't made any competitive products other than a VPN.
I also saw a Nord VPN commercial and it was full of lies are usual (seriously, malware protection?). However a lot of there arguments could apply to Firefox. Why doesn't Mozilla do any sort of advertising? Admittedly Firefox isn't great in the UI department for the average user so it may be worthless

What makes waterfox more useable?
I had never heard of Waterfox before seeing this post. I went and checked it out. Basically, their "thing" seems to be that they have Firefox's privacy settings automatically defaulted to stronger settings, yet still mild enough for normal web browsing (it won't break as many websites as when you have Firefox fired up on all privacy cylinders, I guess?).
They also have incognito tabs instead of just incognito windows.
Other than that, I don't see any differences in the GUI for ease of use.
Oh wow I have played around with waterfox but never realized that you could mix private/incognito tabs together. That’s kinda cool, but not really a game changer.
It not for non tech savy users. That's the problem
What do you mean?
Its UI is clunky and unintuitive
