I just uninstalled Firefox yesterday after it came out that they are collecting user data by default. If I’m going to be tracked either way, I might as well use the browser that’s actually supported on sites I use so I don’t have to keep ignoring the “Firefox is not supported and some features may not work” warnings 5x a day.
ITT: A bunch of folks who didn’t read the article.
The article didn’t say young people were doing worse than before, which it seems like all of you assumed.
The reason the study found for why youth is no longer one of the “happiest times” is because they showed that people only do better and better as they age. So whereas before your youth would be comparatively happier to your ‘mid-life crisis’, they’re saying that crisis doesn’t occur anymore and we just get happier and happier into midlife and old age. So your younger days didn’t get worse, they just aren’t as great in comparison because the rest of your life gets so much better as time goes on.
Sounds crazy, I know. But that’s what the article was actually saying.

Too late. Lumen5 crashes on Firefox. Google Cloud Console barely loads. I was a Firefox user for YEARS but finally had to uninstall this week. The amount of “Firefox is not supported” warnings and weird issues I was running into every day was getting a tad ridiculous.
