Ahaha! Hooray, so now I'm in the same group as Google and IBM!

You ARE aware that Firefox became a mass thing mostly due
to the viral actions (telling their friends, family, non tech-savy
co-workers) of power users / it guys / nerds, yes? You are aware
that lots of people will use the browser at home they are used
/got got learn at work? What do you think will happen once in
our company the IT guys replace Firefox. What browsers will
the non-tech-guys switch to at home?

According your statements Firefox is no longer meant for

- Business users
- Enterprises
- Users that have Firefox provided by their OS
- Power users / nerds / it guys / developers
- IBM
- Web developers or website owners
- People who need to know what software version
  they are running

OK, understood. According to you Firefox now officially
is a browser only targetted at my grandma, with an UI
focus on giving my grandma an experience similar to
Chrome.

And I guess your long term plan is to piss people off until you are
the
last user left of Firefox 73. Which features only one hardcoded
URL, but no adress bar or other distracting things, but
leaks 200 MB RAM per second, which is only not causing
crashes because every 5 minutes a new don't-call-it-version
is downloaded and Firefox restarted.

Epic WIN ;)
