Sure, that doesn’t seem to be true?
Gallup found the following:
Women are also more in favour of less restrictions on abortion (e.g. from X weeks) than men.

In my experience this doesn’t matter. Firefox just slows down if it’s been open for long, regardless for how long the tab has been open for. Even if you unload all active tabs and open a new one, that new tab will still be significantly slower than it would be if you restarted the entire browser.
It’s some kind of slow resource leak somewhere.
The American playbook is: coup unfriendly regime, install friendly government, get trade agreements, use economic dominance to enrich the US via trade (with the occasional “set up US company to take control of natural resources”). The US was very open that they liked Putin because it seemed he would be liberalising Russia for a while, which furthered American corporate interests in Russia.
Putin turning ultranationalist has thrown a massive wrench into that plan, because now US corporations are being forced to exit Russia again. The damage that that is doing is greater than what Lockheed Martin gets for supplying weapons. It’s also in part why Trump, beholden to US corporate interests, is so keen to end the war. Because that makes the US more money than keeping it going. And as it happens, that’s also what Putin wants because he can pressure Trump to end the war in Russia’s favour.
The old logo also looked far more professional and serious, which is exactly what you want if you’re setting yourself up as a serious alternative to Google and Chrome.
They already had a tough time becoming known, with this logo that doesn’t link well to Mozilla this is becoming even harder. If you took a random person and asked them who the new logo was for, they wouldn’t know. With the moz://a logo, they could easily figure it out.
The chosen colours are also too harsh. The activists/hackers/whatever already likely use Firefox. It’s exactly the pond they shouldn’t be fishing in. They should focus on a brand messaging that demonstrates reliability, performance and ease-of-use, being the choice for the casual user. Because that’s the market they need to win.
The “Nothing to hide” argument isn’t really an argument, it’s more of a conclusion. That conclusion is then taken to support mass surveillance. It’s also not a logical fallacy (even if it’s wrong). It may be “proven” using logical fallacies, but that doesn’t make it a logical fallacy on its own. So I think it’s correct to remove the logical fallacy text.
I think the more effective defense against this one is to provide counterexamples for why you might care about mass surveillance:
The boxes are placed such that they mimic the positions of the characters in the comic.
That comic got memed a lot, including a lot of people who “reduced” the characters to just their orientation and position in the comic.

It’s used as a pejorative for authoritarian “leftists”, e.g. people who could barely be considered left-wing and have more in common with right-wing authoritarians, and who praise authoritarian governments like Russia/China.
Other people on the left don’t want to be associated with that shit, and rightfully so.
“Look, Python is way easier to use than other languages! Look how complex this easy task is in Python versus other languages like assembly and brainfuck!”
I’m not saying “do stuff in C it’s easier than Python”, but if I took e.g. C# then it’s also just two lines. That supports everything and is also faster than the Python implementation.
I mean, is it? I personally haven’t found Python using much less boilerplate. It’s possible, but you end up with something inflexible that’s hard to maintain.
“Progressive roots”?
“I have 99,99% uptime I swear!”
