    Problem is Mozilla gets most of their money from using Google as default search engine, so they can’t just remove that

      It won’t take long until Firefox will have such a low market share that another open source browser project can take over their share of users. I am ready to switch to a better project which is not dependent on Google, that needs less funding and uses that money better.

      Edit: This is me trying to see the good in the fact that Firefox market share is dying.

          In other words, Firefox might be around longer than looks reasonable from a distance.

          Yeah but on the other hand: the people who like firefox like it for being not google, so they would switch to a different browser that’s better in that regard, I believe

            why you said: “It won’t take long until Firefox will have such a low market share that another open source browser project can take over their share of users.”
