Firefox 129 Now Available With HTTPS Replacing HTTP As Default Protocol: phoronix.com/news/Firefox-129-

"…most websites are defaulting these days to promoting HTTP connections to HTTPS anyhow"
Why do you guys do this shit then? The ones who want their visitors to use HTTPS have ways to do that, those who don't — they don't want that. I've been disabling this "HTTPS by default" thing for years — with the way FF became, I'm not even sure they have left this option. Another reason to not update! 😩

Yeah, some indication is fine — back in the days there even a tiny dialog popped up if you were being redirected to HTTP from HTTPS page.
That is perfectly fine to give a warning, what I'm generally against is computers guessing what I want as if they know better 😄
