Could there be a paid version?
The entire web seems to be creepy beyond belief! The stock in trade is my life. I don't want you people spending your time trying to dream up ways to build the cheese that leads me into your maze. I just want to buy a product. I want that product to work for years. It should be reliable not flashy. Why is that so hard these days? When did we become people who would accept junk that needed to constantly be repaired after purchase? Why does an upgrade do exactly the same thing it's predecessor did, but more slowly and requiring more resources? Why can companies build something and then a few years down the road simply stop supporting it? Here in the US car companies were required to support their products for 15 years. As expensive as phones have become and as disruptive as changing operating systems is we need similar legislation in the tech industry. Google needs to be broken up and not be the hub of the internet. No matter where I go in the net my browser always goes to google first. That's just creepy. So please someone just offer a product that doesn't make me a product by it's use.

Back in the earlier days of the Opera web browser in the yaars before they downgraded the browser engine from Presto to being just another Chromium based browser in 2016. Opera used to have a paid for version and a free version with a Ad bar on menu bar. Opera was not popular until they essentially made the paid version be free to download and use and got rid of the ad-bar in 2005.
People will expect a Lot if there is ever a paid for or subscription based version of the desktop Firefox web browser.

Hmm when there is no law requiring auto makers to stock parts for ten years in the US as Steve Lehto talked about that old claim people believe in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2M7iTxLD0MA
Mozilla is a company that supports older eol OS's longer with their Firefox web browser compared to Chrome/Chromium based browsers. They supported the then eol Windows XP/Vista for over two years longer over Chrome/Chromium. Currently they are still supporting the eol Windows 7, 8, 8.1 for two years longer compared to when Chrome/Chromium dropped Windows 7, 8, 8.1 back in Jan/Feb 2023.
