Mozilla is unhappy because the use of browser engines other than WebKit will be restricted to the EU, forcing them to develop two different apps.

For an independent browser like Firefox, managing two browsers is not easy, so it can be forgiven that this could be seen as almost harassment.

Also, the fact that the use of browser engines other than WebKit is limited to iOS means that the use of WebKit is still forced on iPadOS, which also increases the effort for Mozilla.

    And I've already pointed out that almost all products you buy are not OS specific...the license is for the software not the OS. So you don't have to rebuy, but that seems to be something the fanboys are missing.

    Where did I say that you can run ios apps directly on Android or osx dmgs on Windows? I never did, I said they almost always have versions of it that run on different platforms. There is a windows version of Photoshop....so your logic here is that osx version of Photoshop cannot run on Windows...no shit...

    Gimp for Linux. It's free even.

    On top of that the Photoshop license is not os specific. You can use it for Windows or osx.

    Ok? And Photoshop license isn't for just osx... you're literally proving the point that you can migrate but you don't want to because of some stupid allegiance to apple
