What is this fad on HN right now? All these people are coming out to criticize Firefox (Mozilla really, not Firefox itself) for their bumbling about the past few years, and now there's a backlash to it, like "these entitled users, oh my goodness" as though holding software companies to a standard is somehow a bad thing?


> as though holding software companies to a standard is somehow a bad thing?

I think some feel they are being held to extremely high standards.

As someone who's avoided the drama, and is a power user, Firefox has been great to me, and continues to be so.

Of course; Mozilla proudly proclaims that they live by higher standards, so their users hold them to higher standards.


HN is deeply contrarian so once a majority opinion gains a foothold it flips to the opposite opinion.
