If you previously installed a customized version of Firefox with Yandex or Mail.ru, offered through partner distribution channels, this release removes those customizations, including add-ons and default bookmarks. Where applicable, your browser will revert back to default settings, as offered by Mozilla. All other releases of Firefox remain unaffected by the change.
Bugzilla: 1759009 - Update Distribution Config
lemmy.ml: Firefox v98.0.1 removed Yandex search option and used misleading bug name to hide it
Fucking hell Mozilla. First DuckDuckGo, now Firefox. And Brave still refuses to pull its head out of its ass to be a viable alternative. The Fediverse continues to prove that it is the future for people like us, fuck corporations.
Yeah, Brave’s CEO is Brendan Eich. That put me off right there. Mozilla aren’t perfect, but at least they kicked him to the curb.
You both can still use UXP-based web browsers if you support the devs.
What are you talking about?
I’m talking about privacy and freedom respecting services going out of their way to submit to western politics. I like my services unbiased.
Being pro-privacy and pro-freedom is a bias. (Not a bad one)
