Mozilla is far from perfect but god damn the degree of hatred and mirth some people have is entirely disproportionate to anything they’ve actually done, and completely irrespective of the good they actually do.
It’s got the same energy as leftist purity testing, where there is no “net good”, only perfection and villains to be spat on.
I’m, like, yeah, some of the stuff Mozilla has done has been worrying, but I’ve seen far worse happen to some other open source projects and their corporate branches.
I’m not worried about Mozilla projects’ future. If LibreOffice survived corporate calcification, I see no reason why Mozilla projects wouldn’t, if the push comes to a shove. But the thing is, in my opinion, push hasn’t come to a shove yet. There’s red flags at best, which is a cause for concern, but that’s it.
It almost seems like there’s anti Mozilla campaign going on. It’s normal to see some critique but all of a sudden there is a huge Mozilla hate push. Call me crazy but it feels organized
The hell is with all these comments?

I’ve felt this for a while.
When dirty tricks are at play, it’s best to resist.
Don’t get me wrong, they’ve made some bad decisions, but the world is a darker place without them.
Google really wants to make sure you can’t escape their ad-riddled bullshit when they get rid of Manifest v2
