People asked months ago to NOT include AI anything into our web browser we all use, Mozilla.
You did it anyway because you wanted to chase a trend fuelled by NFTbro rejects jumping to the next big thing.
I've been exclusively a firefox user since 2017 and find it an important piece of tech in the world of web browsers simply for being the last to not bend the knee to Chromium's grasp on the ecosystem. I cannot keep using it if you shove in technology built on stolen data and mass pollution via datacenter atmosphere discharge.
I really did not want to have to switch to some firefox clone, but I may have to now simply out of disappointment of these "new" "features" that went in despite massive backlash. PLEASE remove these features. The whole vertical sidebar, honestly. Preferably, before the AI bubble pops and you're left looking embarrassed as you remove it, anyway.
