Separate issue entirely. I'm talking specifically about Fediverse investment and why that was the final straw.

I thought the discussion was about that and not a "I hate Mozilla" greatest hits.

You can always throw in that Google fund them and a 10 year old bug that hasn't been resolved if that was your purpose.

I guess ranting can help you feel better, so I hope it helped.

@CrypticCoffee

You did not read the entire post you first replied to, did you?

I read it, just had nothing to add.

For the record, I disagree with the AI funding, CEO pay and pocket stuff. It doesn't make me hate them though. They build the biggest open source alternative to Google dictating standards for web. That's massive. I strongly dislike google for a multitude of reasons and hating a company that challenges that is a strange position to take. If Firefox goes, we're mega fucked.

Maybe place your anger with the actual bad actors in the browser space.
