And since you won’t be able to modify web pages, it will also mean the end of customization, either for looks (ie. DarkReader, Stylus), conveniance (ie. Tampermonkey) or accessibility.
The community feedback is… interesting to say the least.

How can the smartest people be so dumb?
Please, please, PLEASE… if you care about a healthy open internet, donate to Mozilla, Thunderbird, and/or the EFF, at the minimum, if you’re able to.
I liked to subscribe to Youtube Premium to support my favourite channels but this kinda stuff turns me off.
Do you know that donation to Mozilla don’t (and can’t legally) fund Firefox development, right? (opposite to what happens for Thunderbird, actually).
But, hey, you can guarantee Mozilla’s CEO a better retirement:
Thus, your money are better spent donating to Thunderbird or EFF or whatever other foundation that does something actually useful.
Yeah, you’re gonna have to cite your sources on that one.
Mozilla income went from $78m to $497m. It’s a much bigger organisation to before. Also if you inflation rate the 500k pay, it’s now worth $710k

The web changed, and complexity increased and even staying in there against a larger adversary is hard. Unless you run a company that is competing with Google, I don’t think you’re really qualified to comment.
Edit: Just realise your description has “Fuck Mozilla!” and you’ve been bashing it since you started on Lemmy. Looks very shilly to me.
Most 9-5s are dumb as fuck
Are you something else? What’s your work schedule?
8-4, he’s an early bird. He gets so much more worms than those 9-5 dummies.
Pffff, who does anything but 7-15? ;P
I said what I said and I am a business owner so my work schedule is 24x7.
Why are you so aggressive? Lack of sleep? I was just asking
Outside of some government jobs, 9-5 is all but dead. Most of the Western world is [at least] 8-6…
8 to 8, more like.
[sad crying noises]
Who are you talking about exactly? Because I doubt that everyone working at google knows everything thats going on, even while working on it.
It’s not doing something dumb. It’s another power grab. We passed the stage where giving the benefit of the doubt is a reasonable thing to do well over a decade ago.
I wonder how much of the money would go to the creators themselves rather than YouTube though. I’d rather use adblock and give money directly through patreon or something. Fuck Google.
