> Will they remove the feature entirely or just plan to change up the colorways available?

At least with this feature Mozilla told us how long it'll be before they remove it.

It is a bit daft, but I think it's not the underlying functionality, rather just these particular thematic colour combinations.

I guess the marketing goons think FOMO's a good hook in this context? Me neither.

Since releases are like once every 6 weeks, its available for ~3 months. What happens when I buy say a new computer in March 2022? Or if I buy one soon, and it arrived in March 2022? I can't apply this Firefox theme because it was available for a limited amount of time?

Everything is available for a limited amount of time. But this is too limited.

I find this utterly ridiculous. Its self defeating. Why would I get used to a feature which is going to unavailable in 3 months? Sure, it stays available if you selected it [1] but what happens if you reinstall your OS or get a new device?

Given its FOSS though, wouldn't it be possible to re-add this feature, even as themes? After all, its just a theme pack. Or is it proprietary?

[1] Supposedly, you could export your profile directory or something like that. But perhaps they're gonna make it available via a subscription in 3 months. Which is their right.

sounds like there are color themes that users have a limited time to select before they remove the ability to select these specific color themes in future releases, as a marketing tactic.

this whole thing is just baffling top-to-bottom. who is this aimed at? normies aren't shopping around for browsers, though maybe the "diversity" platitudes work on someone.
