They've always had the Firefox ESR, but this is a solid product move from Mozilla (for once). A lot of companies have been blocking Firefox for security reasons.

@mayintoronto tbh I feel like this is just what they should've done as their first step once it became clear that their funding source was about to dry up, instead of a bunch of ill-advised consumer products, advertising schemes, and "AI" plays...
@mayintoronto "security reasons" to cripple workers' autonomy, also known as bullshit.
@ariarhythmic Workers have never had much autonomy at work to begin with, especially ununionized office workers. More business demand for browsers that aren't based on Chromium is a net good.
@mayintoronto Mixed feelings, mostly from my instinctive reaction to the word, "Enterprise" associated with any software. As you said, it is a better way to fund the open source side of it than the other options they've pursued before.
@mpotter Not even just that, it forces more products to support Firefox instead of just Edge & Chrome, so more tools are built with not-just-Chromium in mind!
