Good news - Firefox's free built-in VPN is starting to roll out for Firefox Android users today. If you're using Firefox on Android, you can now access practical privacy protection without needing to download another app. To turn the VPN on, tap the three dot menu > Settings > VPN (you'll need to log into your Mozilla account). If you don't see it available for you yet, please be patient as the feature rolls out.

@FirefoxOfficial Good news, y'all support #elonmusk #nazi #x - can you tell us what changed on the internet to bring you back there?
@yoasif @FirefoxOfficial Unlike other browsers, they tried boycotting Xitter and moving to Bluesky. That didn't work out as most users stayed on X. The goal of social media presence is to educate people and attract new users and since the users are on X, Mozilla has to catch them there.
X is a terrible platform. I hate this move, but I understand why it was done. I'm glad that at the same time, Firefox stays on Bluesky and joins Fediverse.
@yoasif @FirefoxOfficial I specifically wrote "most users stayed on X" because it was about X users, not all computer users in the world.
I don't think anything changed, it's just PR speak. I believe what caused this return is realising their reach on Bluesky is much smaller than the reach they had on X. The reach of both combined is even higher of course.
Good sanctions should harm the target but not yourself. I think Mozilla realised it did harm itself much more than X.
@elgregor @FirefoxOfficial They have been doing a lot of that lately.
@elgregor @FirefoxOfficial I don't think "most users are on X", and it was the same when they left.
Firefox tells us something has changed for them to return. What?
