They get pretty close sometimes. I respect their mojo, but I don't install vanilla Firefox anymore. On anything. For any reason. I don't trust them anymore.
I wish them the best, if I could donate directly to Firefox development I would, but it's impossible with them. So I don't. I donate to mullvad, I donate to the Tor project, and I donate to servo. That's what I can do to make sure we maintain an open and free web
Mullvad are a for profit company . Why do u donate to them ?
That's a great point. I totally thought they were non-profit. They're just so on brand with my personal ethos I just assumed.
But yeah checking they're not. Totally wrong about that. Thanks for pointing it out
This is an old issue, I was just linking to it to reference why I have friendly relations with Firefox but I doubt they're intentions, or at least I consider them an ally but one that needs to be double checked
