Did the CEO take a pay cut?
does a bear shit in your mouth?
Depends... will it generate shareholder value?
Okay I'll learn how to make better coffee
Are you going to tell him "no?"
Only if he stops.
Only if it wants too
GODDAMMIT MOZILLA. YOU ARE MAKING ADVOCATING FOR BETTER INTERNET HARD
This is more of a symptom the cause is the monopolization of the internet largely by Google
Unfortunately I don't think there's much Mozilla can do other than cut costs with it seeming like the Google funding will be getting severely hampered.
They can't get money from thin air.
"Give that CEO a raise!"
Another Mozilla
All of my favorite browsers are forks of Firefox. Lately it's been Zen browser. Watching Firefox smoulder and collapse over the years has been truly painful and makes me fear a chromium future in hell.
We are truly living in dark times.

God bean counters ruin everything good related to tech
wouldn't it be nice if the profit motive wasn't the only driving force of the economy?
Everytime I see comments regarding Mozilla''s financials,I have the same effing question: How does a company like brave or opera maintain their browser ?? AFAIK both don't have the level of community backing that Mozilla does nor do they have any (again AFAIK) agreement with a company like google for default search engine placement
Brave and Opera are both forks of Chromium that incorporate upstream changes. Firefox is an entire browser.

They use chromium.
Firefox does not.
The grand majority of software engineering effort goes into the browser development that they never have to work on for the most part.
those are just rebranded chrome(ium). all browsers except firefox and safari are rebranded chromium or firefox. edit: there are some other projects but none are mature.

Brave just tries to scam their users for money.
Like when they added "donate to the content creator" links on YouTube and such, then didn't actually give the money to the content creators.

Mozilla keeps digging Firefox's grave, and seeing how other opensource projects like Gimp struggle to even keep up with their own release schedule and very slow development rate. I fear we will be left with only chrome to use.

Wait they still had employees?
I really wish Mozilla the best but if it were to fail I sure hope Ladybird will be stable by then.
