Still we need an alternative to the Chromium/Chrome monopoly. I can’t imagine living in a world without uBlockOrigin/ good adblockers.
They seriously think I would want to donate my money when their useless leadership is getting paid millions. Out of their fucking tree is what they are. 😆
Even on thunderbird they like to ask for donations
Does Thunderbird still belong to Mozilla? I thought they’d dumped it.
pretty sure yeah but i can be wrong i aint sure
thunderbird is actually a different subdivision and most of their donations go towards developing thunderbird and k-9mail, you should support them if you can
Ohhh that makes more sense
How did you get pics from inside Mozilla HQ? What a shitshow of a company at this point.
Im grateful to the people there keeping Firefox alive, but at this point they should consider splitting off from Mozilla and maintaining a fork or just joining the librewolf team.
I installed Palemoon because it’s more independent from Firefox, having forked longer ago, but what I’m really looking forward to is for a usable browser to come from the Servo project.
@loaExMachina @unexposedhazard I have Pale Moon installed for testing purposes but as a general use browser it’s pretty useless on the modern web since the developer REFUSES to allow it to support the Widevine plug-in making it useless for watching streaming video. It won’t even load YouTube videos properly.
Not supporting DRM on the web is a concious choice I support, you should have base Firefox for your proprietary tech consumptions
The lack of sandboxing is concerning though. Regardless of DRM needs. After all a web browser is basically a JavaScript runtime environment that runs code from all over the web. Having that not be sandboxed is a serious risk, even on operating systems like Linux where applications generally run with restricted privileges.
What did they do?
To summarize:
FF has been losing market share while hiking chairman salary.
Fediverse support and Mastodon are being discontinued in December.
Mozilla is hiring positions for ads and for AI (Which faces backlash for profiting off FOSS development).
Not so long ago users were also upset with the quiet addition of ‘Website Advertising Preferences.’
Technically the graph endedon 2019, but it was a major loss until theb
OP posted this toot with this image revently in a different comunity:
Another thread on this recommended waterfox. Based on Firefox. Might be worth checking out. I’m using it for now.
I’ve been using LibreWolf for a while now. Seems to receive updates from upstream faster than any other fork. Working quite well for me.
Also Zen browser
Ill be the chair for half a million a year!
Firefox would not exist by then.
