    With Google providing 80% of Mozilla’s finding, I think we can all see whats going to happen next.

      I feel like this isn’t talked about enough. Sure

      But for how long is it gonna work that way until they too deprecate v2

        Don’t worry. Where there’s a will, there’s a way.

        Personally I feel like I’m too addicted to Youtube (and Reddit, which is what brought me back here), so if I can’t block ads, perhaps I’ll be able to quit. To be honest though, even just disabling watch history and reducing subscriptions makes a massive difference to how addictive it is.

      The Google payments were never guaranteed for Mozilla. If they didn’t have a backup plan in place to reduce spending, that’s on them. Let Mozilla return to its garage opensource roots.
