This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
If anyone else was confused by the typo, difficult > default.
I'm not sure what to think. On one hand, yes, Google is of course slimy. But if Mozilla loses it's big source of funding (and crumbles as a result), that may put things in a worse place?
Then again, it's a shame that the only major competing browser engine is funded by the dominant browser's company. Maybe Mozilla can be fine without it?
Pathetic.
Mozilla has been taken over from within by google parasites...
Frankly its days are numbered and we will need a solution how to keep the engine development going.
I wish there was a better way to do it but sadly right now this is it. If you want independent browsers to continue they need funding from somewhere.
They can take the salary of the CEO to fund the browser, they can ask for donations that go directly to the browser, they can make subscriptions with useful services. So many ideas that they didn't try in the past 10 years. But it's easier to get free money from Google and do nothing.
I'd love to live in whatever fantasy land selfless compassionate CEO's come from, sadly it's just a fantasy.
Very said it is time for Firefox to go its own way.
It is Mozilla the non-profit I want gone, along with their wholly owned for profit company that controls firefox.
honestly I don't see the thing here. unless its about edge being a respin of chrome. all macs come with safari, all windows edge, ironically its a few linux distros that come with chrome while others use a default foss browser. I feel like their biggest monopoly is windows giving up and using their core rather than making their own.
Why the hell would anyone defend Firefox/Mozilla anymore? Why, because they aren't google? That's a weaker argument the more times Mozilla finds ways to distrust their userbase.
