I mean, they had to lay off people at the beginning of the non-profit Mozilla Foundation fully owns the for-profit Mozilla Corporation. I give them a maximum of three years, unless they morph into yet another Chromium-based browser, thereby reducing their expenses. Need I go on? I think I‘ve made my point. Ad companies want to target as many Internet users as possible with ads, and at some point, when Firefox‘s market share is even lower than now, Google will question whether or not their funding of Mozilla is still worth it. Google is also their competitor in the browser market, and is also an ad company. About 80% of Mozilla‘s annual income comes from Google. This situation is in turn compounded by the fact that they are not funded by a group of sponsors, but rather by one big sponsor – Google. This situation is compounded by the fact that Mozilla is entirely dependent on being sponsored by someone big, by virtue of not having any other successful product that could potentially fund Firefox. Developing a new browser based on a preexisting browser takes substantially fewer resources. Developing their own rendering engine is complex and requires them to be a bigger operation compared to the companies behind Brave, Vivaldi etc. It seems unlikely, considering that Adobe won't distribute security updates anymore for Flash in Mozilla develops its own rendering engine.
Mozilla plans to remove Flash support in Firefox 85 but there is a chance that these plans may change. No version of Firefox will support Flash anymore from that point in time. January 2021 - Flash support is removed from Firefox Stable 85.October 2020 - Flash support is removed in Firefox Nightly 84.Firefox will always prompt for permission if sites require Flash. September 2019 (current state) - Always Activate option is removed.From Firefox Nightly, the cutting edge development build of Firefox, it will be removed in October 2020.įirefox users may disable Flash in the browser already or remove Flash from the system entirely as this will also remove Flash support in Firefox. Flash support will be removed earlier from development builds. According to the schedule, Flash will be removed in Firefox 84 85 Stable, which Mozilla plans to release in January 2021. Mozilla updated the Flash deprecation schedule recently the organization revealed the Firefox version and the month in which Flash would be removed from Firefox.
