When AI gets bigger context windows so I don’t have to manage so much myself, I am going to start altering Firefox and making it better on my own.
First goals:
- Remove the requirement for extension signing
- Add an internal tool to customize the GUI, especially the context menu
- Re-add a status bar
- Optimize it better for Mac
- Built-in ad-blocking
- Complete telemetry removal
I’ll probably think of more. I could do almost all of this now with Claude Code + ChatGPT. It’d just be too much of a time investment at the moment. In a year or so as AI improves, I’ll give it a go.
I’ll probably never release it. It’ll just be for me. But for the first time in history, it’ll be possible for people who don’t want to be full-time programmers to unfuck clown-ass decisions by absolute idiots.
