Mozilla hit with lawsuit from former Chief Product Officer (archive.org)
 

https://archive.org/details/jyjfub/mode/1up?view=theater

In September 2023, Steve Teixeira was the respected and successful Chief Product Officer of Mozilla Corporation and poised to become Mozilla Corporation’s next CEO. But on October 3, 2023, he was diagnosed with ocular melanoma and soon went on a 90 day medical leave for treatment. Immediately upon his return, Mozilla campaigned to demote or terminate Mr. Teixeira citing groundless concerns and assumptions about his capabilities as an individual living with cancer. Interim Chief Executive Officer Laura Chambers and Chief People Officer Dani Chehak were clear with Mr. Teixeira: he could not continue as Chief Product Officer and could not continue as a Mozilia employee in any capacity beyond 2024—because of his diagnosis. When Mr. Teixeira opposed this discriminatory action, Mozilla responded by unilaterally placing him on indefinite administrative leave, effectively disappearing both Mr. Teixeira and his complaints of discrimination. Mozilla has discriminated and retaliated against Mr. Teixeira in violation of the Washington Law Against Discrimination. Mozilla has also unlawfully shared his personal health information, and unlawfully sought to gag his speech about illegal discrimination and retaliation.

Can I edit .docx files without a Microsoft 365 subscription and if not are there any alternatives in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

My Microsoft 365 subscription is expiring and will not be renewed thanks to you lovely people getting me on the Proton family of software and obsidian for note taking.

I mean... Why would you ditch a service you evidently NEED just because some stranger on the internet told you so?

That said, there's plenty of offline programs that can work on .dock files, such as OnlyOffice and LIbreoffice (with varying degrees of compatibility with existing files). Good luck!

It's odd to me how this articleis being silenced/removed or downplayed by the entire tech community. It looks like people sinerely believe tha Mozilla can't do no wrong or that Mozilla is above any judgment while other entities are being systematically (and hypocritically) attacked for personal matters (e.g., Brave's CEO).

The author may be a right-wing fellow. Nonetheless, the data he exposes are taken from official Mozilla docs.

Mozilla, Thunderbird, and/or the EFF,

Do you know that donation to Mozilla don't (and can't legally) fund Firefox development, right? (opposite to what happens for Thunderbird, actually).

But, hey, you can guarantee Mozilla's CEO a better retirement:

Thus, your money are better spent donating to Thunderbird or EFF or whatever other foundation that does something actually useful.

LPT: disable "Show Scores" in your settings. Score is useless, is often lazily used just to silence unpopular opinions and reduces engagement and reasoned arguments. (lemmy.ml)
