@aescling @wallhackio there’s been a blogpost going around criticizing a different blogpost their president (not c·e·o) made (this one: <https://blog.mozilla.org/en/mozilla/mark-surman-mozilla-25-years/>) in which mozilla implies that it is pivoting away from firefox development and into a·i investment, and indeed, in the past year, firefox has invested huge amounts of money in a·i while usershare (and profits) from firefox have been in a steady decline

but i’m also old enough to remember when they thought it was a good idea to hire “industry color specialists” to create limited‐edition firefox themes that nobody wanted (<https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/personalize-firefox-colorways>), or that time that they non‐consensually downloaded a browser plugin on every firefox installation in order to promote a television show (<https://www.theverge.com/2017/12/16/16784628/mozilla-mr-robot-arg-plugin-firefox-looking-glass>), or, you know, every other firefox marketing or capital‐raising venture mozilla has attempted in the past decade
