I love Mozilla, but I’m concerned about its future. Since 80% of its income reportedly comes from the Google search deal, do they have a plan to replace it after the recent ruling? And can they maintain their current level of autonomy while doing so?

The Android version of Firefox still doesn't have working keyboard shortcuts after 13 years or a way to delete individual history items to prevent broken auto complete. The money is going into lots of other things than the browser.

I'm not sure keyboard shortcuts for a version designed to run on an OS for devices without keyboards will ever be a priority. You can use a keyboard on an Android device, but the vast, vast majority of Android devices are phones that never get used with keyboards. I don't expect there's much priority to adding that feature.

I agree that a lot of money is going to things other than the browser though.
