I cancelled my subscription since I received a notification that my browser is not supported. Perhaps I should have mentioned my issues with DRM as well, but this may have gone too far. One message is clear, too many messages are noise.

Can you though? It still involves bundling non-free software that is basicly malware (software the harms the user)
Yes, you can disable Firefox's DRM feature, which means DRM code will not run and you won't see DRM-protected content.
That doesn't completely remove it though
Then compile it yourself.
Gentoo~
Though you don't need it. I built my first Firefox on Ubuntu. It just felt better this way.
So I just installed Gentoo and I'm not going back. Holy hell how easy it is to ride that distro, and control flags what gets compiled in.
