@erkhyan@yiff.life at dusk, the lizard with a broken spine understood that everyone hated what it had it been doing for the past 5 years. but it did not yet have the mental fiber to understand why

[crackhappy@cyberpunk.lol]

@erkhyan I won't use any browser with AI crap built into it.

[lexinova@cyberplace.social]

@erkhyan don't give back the time they lose developing this crap instead of fixing their browser.

[tael@yiff.life]

@erkhyan Already switched to LibreWolf, sorry Mozilla!

[tootbrute@fedi.arkadi.one]

@erkhyan they only added this after the outrage. dunces.

[xameer@mathstodon.xyz]

@erkhyan @soatok try #surf no #ai enhancements , but no plugins like ublock

[nbanthony2k@mastodo.neoliber.al]

@erkhyan Hell yeah, thank you for this. Literally just updated and got:

What’s New | Firefox 148

AI on your terms

[via4@mastodon.social]

@erkhyan It should have been a plugin in the first place, not plug out

[tusk@mastodon.uno]

@erkhyan i fking love it

@erkhyan

I immediately blocked everything but am considering turning on translation and image alt text, as that can actually be useful, and likely everyone would like them if they were not labelled AI.
