I am just curious because I had it off for a long time but have recently started to opt back in because I am too lazy to report every single bug I encounter when browsing the web but I do want to see Mozilla improve Firefox.

On a side note, I would appreciate it if it was opt-in. Ask when the profile is being set up. Don’t be sneaky about it. I understand that this means less metrics for Mozilla, but consent is more important, imo.

Yea I leave it on. As others have said, I’m willing to donate some data in hopes it will help improve the data long-term

Firefox is the only thing I leave the analytics reports on, at least for things that give you that choice.

I’ve been on the Firefox ride for a decade and a half and it’s been good to me(with the right addons anyway) so i help them out by letting them have that data.

My rule is quite simple.

Open source -> telemetry on

Else -> off

Examples: KDE, Firefox
