serious question. i know how to chattr but wonder what is the easiest way to stop worrying the next worse decision from moz. probably some AI shit. I just want to stick with my old moz trash because there has not been a single update in 5 years that made anything better - i always lose functions. this applies to ff (slower, dumber, bloated) and thundeturd (have a plugin you like? WE WILL KILL IT!).

so how to keep a state of software from when it was OK and not follow up on ANYTHING the greedy corpo puts out? I am sure moz will keep releasing horrible updates even when they reached less that 0.05% market share just because they can and are sick people.

    You can set your package manager to not update it. In Debian you would run apt-mark hold package_name to stop a package from updating. In Arch, you would add the package to the IgnorePkg list in /etc/pacman.conf.

    I would not recommend doing that, especially with a web browser. That will leave you vulnerable to any security issues that come up.
