I would legit pay $40+ for Firefox… it’s gotta make and keep some promises around security, compliance, configurablity and compatibility, etc. though. It also needs to be a decently long term purchase. I’m not doing it for every version they release, maybe a lifetime license or at least a 4-6 year cadence if it’s a bit cheaper.

I don't think $40 would support much use time. Maybe yearly would be fair. Idk what kind of money they need but it's clearly a lot.

I'm paying for vpn 60 bucks per year, for storage 70, I'd give the same for a decent trustworthy browser.
