Seems Firefox decided to return to Twitter.
Hey Firefox how’d you get that blue checkmark?
Oh.
not shocking considering the new ceo is an ai bro
also not shocking>? this
FWIW no donation money to the Mozilla org goes to Firefox development. It goes to everything else, including the AI bro projects and AI company handouts.

i know; i originally donated to mozilla specifically because i liked their goal of turning a page against the hate and bigotry on the internet, especially with mozilla.social but they got rid of that with their latest ceos.
they don’t understand that i WANT a progressive company working to build a non ai browser AND make the internet community a better place.
Yeah, Mozilla Org is the non-profit and Mozilla Corp is the for-profit that develops Firefox and gives their CEO’s million dollar golden parachutes. Unfortunately these days even the org is overrun with AI bros.
That honestly suck considering they are Google’s pet with the search engine agreement.
Very much agreed. I don’t think Firefox should take some high moral stance and reject Google money, but they need to develop alternative ways of getting funded, and cut irrelevant spending! That way they can actually start loosening Google’s stranglehold on them
The internet is changing again
translation: it is more socially acceptable to be fash now, so we’re courting the fash now
This is the scummy part! Their “reintroduction” reads like a dogwhistle.
What’s a good Firefox alternative for Android?
Fennec
I’m using a fork, so fuck you very much.
Read:
We got new social media leadership who doesn’t have time for morals
Yep. “We value morals, but we value money from the US gov and the MAGA crowd the most 👉👈”
I wish they could just find a neutral wealthy benefactor so they wouldn’t have to worry about pleasing people and just focus on making a better browser for all
that wouldn’t matter since they have an ai bro as ceo who loves everything about ai.
:( why does everything have to go rotten, been using firefox since it was firebird, hate to let it go but that is bad news
neutral
wealthy
You can only pick one
Sadly yeah, and what I meant by that was doing things to appease a smaller number of users or things to grow their user base while they lose long time users, like adding AI features, adding search engines that don’t respect privacy, all that stuff
Uh…
Firefox is fashtech now?
Waterfox is an offshoot of Firefox that started from strong moral disagreements within the company
librewolf too
all corporations either are or want to be.
ALL
Yeah the only reason a company is not interested in fascism is because they’re jelly they’re not included in the money grift. And then they only desperately want to be included.
Yep!
