Huh, always assumed that Firefox was much older than 2004. I remember using it in 2005/2006 for the first time.

basically since the 90s if you consider netscape, considering firefox was spun of from them

And between the two we had Mozilla Suite (which is what SeaMonkey basically is today)

@tommi @firefox @mozilla Smh, They really need to bring back the Merch store. I used to see it as a kid but as soon as I turned adult and able to buy something, There's no more merch store.

Likely cost more than the funding it would have or was bringing in to support Firefox development

I miss the old one. The current one isn't great.

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Wheeeee!

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.
