I really can’t stand their skewed priorities in contrast to the state of Firefox.

        factually incorrect, they’re just paid to have them as the default search engine and they need that money to maintain the browser

        They really just can’t get a break. When they take money from Google they get attacked. When they try to create other revenue streams (pocket, vpn, etc.) they get attacked. I don’t think you want the browser to be a paid for subscription product and the donations aren’t enough to reliably cover browser development anyway.

        Maintaining and keeping secure a large standards compliant browser is decidedly expensive. And most of the expenses are not one off they are ongoing.
