The responses needs to be contain representation at least equally to non Firefox people who no longer care to answer a poll about a product that they don't use. Why? Only current users are going to answer the poll, not the people with the cuts and pain that forced them back to Chrome or safari. Asking survivors how to reinforce survival actually doesn't solve for why do many people off board Firefox.
Frankly you should ask people like my 60-70yo parents why chrome not Firefox. You'll learn more from that than the corrected responses of people who loudly have preferences but at the end of the day would stay either way. My parents tried Firefox, but then left it. Although they only tried from insistence from their son.
PS: I agree with the poll. I don't want a chat bot either. If I did, I'd install a plugin that integrates once of my own choosing. Given the availability, privacy, and ease of lmstudio I'd rather leave it in its own place outside the browser and network. I don't know how those like my parents feel about a bot that can probably answer their questions. I also doubt they care. Maybe it would help them ask questions they're too embarrassed to ask friends and family for. Usually how to questions they've asked dozens of times. But that's super dangerous.
