I hope to see the day when (or if) the LLMs get so good at spotting and fixing bugs that all that’s left for the Firefox engineers to do is to focus on adding new features.

This isn’t sarcasm. Firefox deserves to be used more. Most people I know don’t use it because “Chrome does almost everything better”, and Firefox can’t compete with the other browsers’ roadmaps.

Part of the problem is, when they stop working on fixing bugs, they start doing Mr Robot things... We just want a web browser. Nobody asked for pocket, or AI...

If they use AI to fix all the bugs, then what else is for them to do, other than maintain syntax compatibility with the various languages they build with? They're just going to go back to making the browser trash again.

Totally agree. I even go as far as choosing which website I make purchases on depending if they work on FF, or writing to support occasionally to tell them it's not supported or a feature isn't working properly and this would be appreciated.

I know it pretty much always goes nowhere, but I feel it's what I can do to keep the browser somehow on the radar.

I just hope they don't start ignoring human created bug reports, as there are still many that haven't been fixed for years.
