The hell is with all these comments?
Mozilla is far from perfect but god damn the degree of hatred and mirth some people have is entirely disproportionate to anything they've actually done, and completely irrespective of the good they actually do.
It's got the same energy as leftist purity testing, where there is no "net good", only perfection and villains to be spat on.
It almost seems like there's anti Mozilla campaign going on. It's normal to see some critique but all of a sudden there is a huge Mozilla hate push. Call me crazy but it feels organized
Google really wants to make sure you can't escape their ad-riddled bullshit when they get rid of Manifest v2
There is, I just saw a post trying to demonize Mozilla simply because they had a few job listings for AI and Ad managers and the take away in the post itself was like "I see they have fully pointed the ship towards a future of AI and Ads", like are you serious??? A few job listings is enough to paint the entire future of the company lol
This was my takeaway also. As if Chromium and all It’s derivatives are just going to not use daddy Alphabet’s ai tech.
I've felt this for a while.
When dirty tricks are at play, it's best to resist.
Don't get me wrong, they've made some bad decisions, but the world is a darker place without them.
