The poll is over, and the result is clear:

#FireFox users have very little interest for Chatbot integration into their browser.

I am very much aware that the people, who voted in this poll are hardly a representative sample, but more than 2.4K people is a better size than many "professional" opinion polls.

@mozilla & @firefox should take people, who actually care about their #browser choice, seriously.

I still seriously believe that #Mozilla's fate matters,

If I want to use a chatbot, I'll access a website that provides one.
My browser is supposed to be a program that lets me access the internet, and nothing else.

What Firefox provides here:

A connector to LLM providers.
Accelerators (context menu options).

From a coding perspective, this should ideally be a very lightweight functionality.

This feature is very analogous to options to add a search engine, and also to provide accelerators via context menu.

While it can be done via third-party or Official Mozilla add-ons, but (to me) it still makes sense to have it part of the product.
