    They are throwing things at the wall hoping something sticks.

    For some reason people don’t want Mozilla to make money or perhaps they assume browser development is lucrative.

      For some reason people don’t want Mozilla to make money or perhaps they assume browser development is lucrative.

      By their own account, it’s not meant to be lucrative.

      "Corporation. Foundation. Not-for-profit.

      Mozilla puts people over profit in everything we say, build and do. In fact, there’s a non-profit Foundation at the heart of our enterprise."

      Straight from Mozilla’s About Us page for you. Maybe they ought to live up to their words and start focusing on making a solid browser that respects users’ privacy with the majority of their time, funding and energy, rather than squandering these assets on current tech hype nonsense that people don’t actually want.

        You’re right of course, but you’re also wasting your breath.

        In 2024 the business sociopaths have so many people so twisted and screwed up in the head that they can’t even CONCEIVE of the idea of a person or organization focused on delivering a product sustainably rather than “MONEY MONEY MONEY, NOM NOM NOM!” for eternity.
