Mozilla has just deleted the following:

“Does Firefox sell your personal data?”

“Nope. Never have, never will. And we protect you from many of the advertisers who do. Firefox products are designed to protect your privacy. That’s a promise. "

I've been looking for a good alternative as a precaution. Evolution Email seems the next most popular but it keeps logging me out of my accounts every few hours. I might try Betterbird or Claws Mail.

For Android I'm using FairEmail as mozilla bought k9 Mail.

Time & time again people can't comprehend that companies need revenue to survive, especially for Mozilla's sake, their > transparency has only harmed them by letting ignorant people see things like this & blindly make assumptions.

The team behind Mozilla is insanely under paid & under appreciated, please keep up the amazing work. ❤

I agree with this. Developers need to eat and pay rent too.

Reading shit like "fuck Mozilla" and "Mozilla is dead" pisses me off extremely. That is just ignorant.
