and if more people donated they wouldn't need alternative sources of funding......
Again, what you donate don't fund FF development but goes toward Mozilla's bullshit/activism/whatever/huge CEO paychecks. Who cares about that?
I for sure don't. I will celebrate the day Mozilla disappears for good.
It's weird to call for the disbandment of a relatively small company producing one of the major alternative browsers for what would otherwise be a monopoly.
What is Mozilla doing that Google and Apple aren't doing but worse? Why direct all this negative energy at the small one keeping things tolerable?
Major alternative? At 2.x% market share? You people are very delusional. By the way, the shitty market share is exclusively Mozilla's fault, even if they're always complaining about evil Google (while they take that sweet 500 M/years from that evil company and waste them on anything but fixing their shitty browser). Mozilla is ascummy/scammy company that should have died years ago. I'll celebrate their fall.

Mozilla CEO pay is $6M, and the rest of the board members are about $0.7M or less. Total executive compensation is a little under $10M.
Their total revenue is $64M. By and large, the money is going toward developers and activism, which is where it should go.
Feel free to donate, then. For all I care...
mozilla's activism is part of the reason why i donate
