Ideas:

  • directly ask for donations, and actually use those donations to fund browser development
  • build an add-on to pay sites instead of seeing ads - Mozilla could take a cut here
  • push harder on existing, optional add-ons that generate revenue, like their VPN

But the article here reads like, "we've tried nothing and we're all out of ideas. Have ads..."
