    Fuck I’m reevaluating my life choices in terms of browsers. I assumed the situation of firefox is what it is because mozilla is morally superior and doesn’t compromise. It now seems like it’s not morally superior at all, so the reason for the current situation of firefox must be just sheer incompetence.

    Dammit.

      “Mr Teixeira had ethical concerns regarding the layoffs because they were primarily motivated by a desire to increase profit margins at Mozilla, which was already operating at a profit,” the complaint claims. “Mr Teixeira viewed this as antithetical to Mozilla’s values as espoused on their website: ‘We’re backed by a non-profit, which means we prioritize the interests of people first, not corporate profits.’”

      Wow.

      You can probably still use Firefox. It’s FOSS. The same contributors and devs work on it like always.

      And in the end it may fork and become something else, when enough people are fed up with the corpobro bs. But still better than Chrome.
