Rules
While we are not an official Mozilla community, we have adopted the Mozilla Community Participation Guidelines as far as it can be applied to a bin.
Rules
-
Always be civil and respectful
Don't be toxic, hostile, or a troll, especially towards Mozilla employees. This includes gratuitous use of profanity. -
Don't be a bigot
No form of bigotry will be tolerated. -
Don't post security compromising suggestions
If you do, include an obvious and clear warning. -
Don't post conspiracy theories
Especially ones about nefarious intentions or funding. If you're concerned: Ask. Please don’t fuel conspiracy thinking here. Don’t try to spread FUD, especially against reliable privacy-enhancing software. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Show credible sources. -
Don't accuse others of shilling
Send honest concerns to the moderators and/or admins, and we will investigate. -
Do not remove your help posts after they receive replies
Half the point of asking questions in a public sub is so that everyone can benefit from the answers—which is impossible if you go deleting everything behind yourself once you've gotten yours.

@thelinuxEXP@mastodon.social I don't think you have to worry about @thunderbird@mastodon.online though, Mozilla doesn't seem to care about it at all, they tried to kill it, then get rid of it, eventually just turned it into subsidiary and gave free pass. Thunderbird doesn't even want to use Mozilla account for their sync.
I remember your previous video on Firefox alternatives and the conclusion was "nothing better tbh" and I believe that the only thing that changed since is Mozilla being even worse.
@ponda
You are right, thunderbird says this:
"Thunderbird operates in a separate, for-profit subsidiary of the Mozilla Foundation. This structure gives us the flexibility to offer optional paid services to sustain Thunderbird’s development far into the future."
@thelinuxEXP @thunderbird
@_marco_ @ponda @thelinuxEXP We also wanted to additionally clarify that we won't be adopting the Firefox Terms of Use for Thunderbird, either on desktop or on mobile.
@thunderbird@mastodon.online @_marco_@masto.pt @ponda@mastodon.online @thelinuxEXP@mastodon.social Heared that at Firefox and look what happened ... the trust in Mozilla is gone and Mozilla will have to get up and rebuild this trust in years. Maybe (!) it will regain the trust, but not with this kind of actions.
