It's not about where it is, it's about where it's going. Tech companies love the slow burn. Chrome kept getting progressively worse and now they're at the point where they're blocking ad blockers at the browser level. Windows got away with nags to use MS Office products and now they're leaping into start page ads and integrated AI shit you can't remove. Mozilla is starting to enshittify, just like MS and Google did all those years ago.

I'm really holding out for Ladybird.
This is actually perfect in that enshittification is exactly like death: it comes for everyone or in the context of technology, everything.
There is no popular product or service that doesn't eventually get the enshittification treatment to squeeze more blood from the stone.
Not quite, I don't think. Enshittification is driven by profit motive, which means if there's no money at all involved, then there's no motive.
I guess you chose your words carefully though because the terms 'product' and 'service' pretty much imply that money is involved somewhere there.

Until people are donating enough money to make maintaining an open source browser doable, this will continue to happen.

I've left Firefox twice now and come back. It's still far less shitty than the other main options.
Google chrome, unfortunately is still very alive and well.
You can still block ads system-wide with adguard for desktop...Not sure if it works on linux. But there's also nextDNS, very easy to set up when you use yogaDNS. Or nextDNS's own app to do it.
You need to pay for those things, but paying for adblockers is better than paying each individual website you go to to not have ads
Time to start using my Mullvad browser sigh.
I dont mean to hate on Mullvad, but its got its problems too - mainly because it seems to be too unknown even to admins maintaining different services, bringing problems to its everyday use.
I tried to start using Mullvad as my daily driver, but had to go back to FF because so many of our university's and its affliated services wouldnt work with it at all or would make it a pain to do simple tasks with all the shit web ui -services, portals and their logins that is the modern academia/work environment.
Well, at least I educated about 4 service admins about the existence of Mullvad before going grudgingly back to FF, or rather with these past years controversies, SusFox.
