This is a screwy attitude that assumes every single webpage is this new-web application wannabe BS that people who know better avoid. Chrome and its ilk cater to that garbage; Firefox just does what it needs to do to serve what we want. The problem is, Chrome has gained the lead this way and Firefox (Mozilla) is just doing what it needs to survive. And it’s working. Just because you see someone doing what they need to do to survive doesn’t make it garbage. It’s still a very open, customizable, usable program despite all the objections, and even if Mozilla drops it, Free software will continue to make it viable and usable because no sane person wants to touch Chromium’s poisoned code base.
