After I noticed Firefox has removed the Pocket branding but kept the Pocket stories, I also noticed the settings screen on the homepage no longer lets you disable sponsored stories or links.

Firefox 115:

Firefox 139:

You can still remove these advertisements, but you have to leave the homepage and dig through the settings to find that option.

what, they're killing arc already? holy shit

edit: oh my god that article is painful. "i wish I went all in on ai because i enjoyed playing with chatgpt"?

Webpages won’t be the primary interface anymore. Traditional browsers were built to load webpages. But increasingly, webpages — apps, articles, and files — will become tool calls with AI chat interfaces.

WHAT THE FUCK LOL this is straight up brain damage from using too much chatgpt

I love the em dashes, the weird similes, and the insistence that anybody can just sit down at and play a piano. As you do.

First, simplicity over novelty. Early on, Scott Forstall told us Arc felt like a saxophone — powerful but hard to learn. Then he challenged us: make it a piano. Something anyone can sit down at and play. This is now the idea behind Dia: hide complexity behind familiar interfaces.
