The majority of Mozilla's money actually does not go towards Firefox. They have a crazy amount of side projects.
looking at their 2023 financial report, unless i'm misinterpreting something, they spent around 200 million paying "program staff" (i suppose that's the developers) and 130 million paying executives, which is more than i was expecting. still, if their revenue gets slashed in 90%, just firing every single executive wouldn't be enough. they'd still have to fire firefox staff
