thoughts on mozilla
• they know they have an image problem and are entirely disinterested in fixing it
• they are far from the only open-source/tech advocacy nonprofit on the planet and others do it better
• dunno why people keep defending them considering the above
re: thoughts on mozilla
Yeah, I'm entirely sympathetic with people taking issue with Mozilla. However, they seem to have the only fully functioning nonprofit browser. Also the only non-Chromium-based browser. And Chromium is an issue because its development is controlled by Google. Unfortunately, I think the issue with Mozilla and other nonprofits is that for-profit institutions still have outsize control over them via funding.

@unspeakablehorror @Satsuma webkit isn’t Chromium-based (but it isn’t nonprofit either) [but it’s arguably more nonprofit than Firefox, which is used to drive Pocket and Mozilla V·P·N subscriptions]
but no i’ve seen plenty of people who are more than happy to roll out “your problem is with Mozilla Corporation not Mozilla Foundation and also their huge C·E·O bonuses and A·I investment are just capitalism” when, in fact, no other open source foundation is Like This, mozilla is a huge outlier

@Lady @Satsuma What browsers besides Safari use Webkit?I know Opera used to use it but now uses Chromium.Webkit is controlled by Apple, so it's not any more nonprofit than Internet Explorer was (Edge does not have the same relevance though). They both exist to promote dependency on the parent company.
I think anyone saying that having a problem with Mozilla Corporation would not be linked to issues with Mozilla Foundation would be missing how they are inextricably linked.
re: thoughts on mozilla
@unspeakablehorror @Satsuma GNOME Web, also known as Epiphany, is built on Webkit
i’m not sure what the current status of it is since i think most Linux distributions have switched to Firefox, but it seems to still be putting out releases
