From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

A couple hundred thousand is a pittance if he's keeping shit together. When CEOs push 500 to over a million at a nonprofit, that's absurdity.

She received 6.9 million dollars in 2022 and 5 million in 2021, 3 million in 2020.

CEOs are scum who do not earn anywhere near close to that. They should be lucky to get a couple hundred thousand.

And fuck Firefox having the nerve to ask for donations.

She.

And how are they keeping anything together. Market share isn't substantially better than before and rather than focusing on the product mozilla was created for they keep pivoting to weird BS like this AI grab. I actually think market shares gone up recently... cause google pushed through manifestv3. That would've happened even if mozilla did nothing. I think mozillq is still the better browser but that sure as hell doesn't seem to be because of whose in charge.

If any CEO should make this much, I think it's the one helping to keep browser choice a thing
