RE: https://iconfactory.world/@Iconfactory/117309907700018117 😗 🎉 This is a big update to a great app that I use every day.

Ads are distracting, except when they’re our own. “Unsurprisingly, sponsored shortcuts and other sponsored content shown by Firefox when you open a new tab won’t be blocked, either.” https://www.thev… ★ 1 The impact of AI on consumer costs is something that’s heavily underreported. ★ 4 ▶ Rest in peace, Optimus Prime. ★ 1
