Iirc, it only comes up if you search for firefox. They could have changed it.

[–] Empricorn@feddit.nl 35 points 5 months ago

Confirmed. They definitely paid to advertise under "Firefox" searches.

[–] user224@lemmy.sdf.org 30 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Confirmed

[–] Irelephant@lemm.ee 1 points 5 months ago

Out of interest, does anything similar come up for chrome? The common enemy of both.

I got the same result, searching for Firefox on Play store

[–] Lazycog@sopuli.xyz 14 points 5 months ago

Yup, third confirmation that this shows up as a "limited time event" which I suspect is an ad in playstore if you search for firefox.

[–] lath@lemmy.world 9 points 5 months ago

It appeared for me as well. As the second result, under "Limited-time events", first result was Firefox. What followed below in the "More results" were the rest of the Firefox variants.

This is after searching Firefox on the Apple App Store, same as searching for brave.

[–] Irelephant@lemm.ee 4 points 5 months ago

I think its just on the play store.
