    And?

    What does that matter?

    This is not a popularity contest.

        No, it isn’t.

        I have been hearing this shit for 20 years.

        Google pays mozilla to keep it alive so they can side step anti-trust laws.

        I hate to break it to you but google already dominate the web.

        FF is not going anywhere.

            well, you keep worrying about it.

            I and the rest of us will keep using it.

            Let’s check back in 5-10 years.
