Hello Mozilla Connect Community, I’m Chance York, a User Researcher on the Firefox User Research team. I’m reaching out because our team has created a survey to gather opinions on a handful of browser features, some of which were suggested previously on Mozilla Connect. Your feedback on this survey...
Yup, I stuck that as “least want.” I already marked “2x faster performance” as “most want” on another question, so hopefully it all shakes out in the end.
I debated because I really disliked another option in there (I think it was split-screen for AI or something stupid) and it felt like it was designed to make me not rank something else I didn’t like as least desired.
It’s an Inferred importance method, as other users have commented it is likely that there are some calibration metrics in there. MaxDiff is the name of the approach if you want to check out more.
Is that a joke?
For me that was together with
So I don’t really care how slow the browser is, as long as it doesn’t have an AI “assistant” that is monitoring my browser usage

You clearly missed the point about “privacy respecting.” It will only share data with Meta, Google and the US government.
Oh, what a deal…
I wouldn’t mind an AI assistant, as long as it’s fully local.
But why? If you want that, you can just have it outside of your browser. Or maybe get an extension that works with an AI assistant on your machine.
I honestly don’t care either way about an AI assistant. I don’t intend to use it, so I’d much rather their efforts be spent elsewhere.
Why would you want that in a browser? We have LLMs you can run local.
Can you let me have my own preferences? Am I allowed?
Not at the cost of my experience. It should be a optional feature if anything
Agreed. If you don’t want to use it it should just stay out of the way.
Control question probably, to check if you actually read the questions.

I forgot those exist and interpreted it as “Would you sacrifice performance for one of these features?”
Am I stupid?
Mozilla might be insane
I also thought it was a feature vs performance question. How can it be used as a control question?
By overestimating users’ intelligence… classic blunder, really. 🧐
I jest, I’ve no idea.
Haha!
Makes sense. What about those who click that option as a joke? Maybe discount all other replies from that person because of that too?
Or what if they don’t click it by joke, but because they actually prefer a 2x slower browser over such a feature?

Wait, I swear mine said twice as fast. Well I guess I got filtered then. Lol
There were both
I had both.
