Is Firefox really an appropriate default browser for Qubes?

[unman]

Do you have any insight into your user base? Qubes has a major tie-in with whonix and advertises other privacy features, so while I get that security is the core focus, it’s reasonable to ask how much of a priority privacy is.

Posters to the Forum represent a small percentage of the estimated
userbase.
Polls in the Forum generally get a tiny number of responses.

Judging by the update statistics, (all we have), Tor users represent
about 20% of the userbase.
I dont recall survey results showing any relevant data.

Qubes does indeed provide privacy features, but also includes Whonix
integration for those for whom privacy is their core focus.

I never presume to speak for the Qubes team. When I comment in the Forum I speak for myself.
