Rules
While we are not an official Mozilla community, we have adopted the Mozilla Community Participation Guidelines as far as it can be applied to a bin.
Rules
-
Always be civil and respectful
Don't be toxic, hostile, or a troll, especially towards Mozilla employees. This includes gratuitous use of profanity. -
Don't be a bigot
No form of bigotry will be tolerated. -
Don't post security compromising suggestions
If you do, include an obvious and clear warning. -
Don't post conspiracy theories
Especially ones about nefarious intentions or funding. If you're concerned: Ask. Please don’t fuel conspiracy thinking here. Don’t try to spread FUD, especially against reliable privacy-enhancing software. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Show credible sources. -
Don't accuse others of shilling
Send honest concerns to the moderators and/or admins, and we will investigate. -
Do not remove your help posts after they receive replies
Half the point of asking questions in a public sub is so that everyone can benefit from the answers—which is impossible if you go deleting everything behind yourself once you've gotten yours.

Mozilla has been a sinking ship for years now. Their mission statement mentions themselves as an AI company rather than a browser company and they slowly keep rolling out more ads and telemetry each release.
For now Librewolf and Thorium are better alternatives. I hope the ladybird browser takes off though since its the only real competition for Blink/WebKit engine
@jon@vivaldi.net If only Mozilla spent their billion dollars in assets actually developing Firefox and Thunderbird instead of AI and political advocacy. In the field of politics, persuing technological advancement first can do a lot more than asking permission later.
Wrong Mozilla. This is about the foundation, not the corporation.
How long until I have to switch to Netscape Navigator for a chromium alternative?
Netscape Navigator became Firefox hahaha
Full circle it is then.
@jon@vivaldi.net Mozilla plays important role and I hope they'll keep on with their mission, however I still don't understand what happens with tens of millions in revenue for the foundation and hundreds of millions for the corporation.
wtf why are there hashtags

@jon@vivaldi.net Well done @mozilla@mozilla.social - lay off advocates, save money for your CEO! Who cares about popularity? ;)
I hope one day @servo@floss.social or @ladybirdbrowser@bird.makeup outruns badly managed Firefox.
@jon@vivaldi.net @codepo8@toot.cafe
@jon@vivaldi.net Without Google FF would not exist... it plays a role but not by its own merit.
@jon@vivaldi.net So am I, but I have really been expecting more layoffs than what most realize and expected.
