    Software like Firefox is designed in a modular way for humans to be able to reason about its correctness. It is complex, but not arbitrarily complex.

    So take out the free VPN and Pocket and it’ll be less complex! ¯\(ツ)

      “Complex but not arbitrarily complex”? I need more coffee this morning already because I’m burning through my patience for idiotic things at an accelerated rate.

      This is an arbitrary sentence, not structured to communicate any information.

      See how I had to have that final comma clause so you could understand what the fuck I was even saying?

          … You do realize that security patches are upstreamed, correct? These forks just don’t include the ads, AI, or built-in VPN.

              Depends on the fork. The MPL largely allows the forks to do as they please, so feel free to check their blog posts and patch notes for reference.
