Mozilla doesn’t need to build any AI things.
All Mozilla needs to do is: make a web browser that is standards compliant and does not adopt any of the nonsense that for-profit companies are doing to try and destroy the web.
Mozilla doesn’t need to run a VPN service, data broker service or anything else.
I just want my money to donate to the development of the browser.
No AI stuff. No cryptocurrency donations. https://hachyderm.io/@joeyh/114078238284059938
No proprietary plugins. No DRM.
Firefox shouldn’t even have a EULA. Mozilla should be collecting ZERO information from the browser that they cannot collect from httpd logs.
To quote Mozilla co-founder @jwz
“In my humble but correct opinion, Mozilla should be doing two things and two things only:
1. Building THE reference implementation web browser, and
2. Being a jugular-snapping attack dog on standards committees.
There is no 3.”
@istvan @WomanCorn @mattl @jwz good god, don't scare them off!

@feld LadyBird is a way off being something you can recommend to the average person as far as I can tell.
@feld @jwz @WomanCorn @mattl But is it justified? If not then fine. Lets move on. If he’s being a mysogynistic douch bro as someone has suggested then may be he’s not the right person to lead. The tech world has enough mysogynistic douch bros. That lot destroying the US for example…
Is he the bad guy or was he being bullied?
“No politics” on an open source/free software project is nonsense I’m afraid.
I wish them well with their recovery.
Going to mute this thread now :)
@feld @jwz @WomanCorn @mattl Pronouns matter. Its not politics. Its beint respectful.
@WomanCorn I use Safari and Firefox, but I also use Little Snitch on my Mac to block endpoints I don't like the sound of.
