Mozilla is accusing Microsoft of using Windows design choices and Copilot integrations to steer users toward Edge and make Firefox harder to use, raising fresh concerns about browser competition and platform control.

    Here’s the original article from Mozilla instead of this third-party AI slop regurgitating it.

    I don’t think Microslop really needs to sabotage Firefox. Firefox is doing a really good job of shooting their own selves in the foot.

    Windows forcing their own propriatary software as a means to destroy competing web browsers? Is it 1997 already?

    Mozilla could have had a foothold but they literally added AI into Firefox, so idk how far they’re gonna get.

      It defaults to local models only from what I know. You probably are responding from a device that uses embedded models already. If you are against technology how are you responding?

    Anti-steering stuff again. Besides that I’ll always be a bit annoyed with Mozilla both with their design decisions for FirefoxOS and then how much they bungled it. RokuOS is still highly relevant while FirefoxOS descendents are real niche. Firefox is usually the default on Linux distros. Mozilla should have at least been pushing Linux distros that shipped Firefox on laptops/desktops since FirefoxOS was announced
