Really wish they would just focus on Firefox now. Mozilla feels like the most aimless organization to head such an important browser alternative to chrome. They tried doing a phone, android versions, pocket, whole slews of bad ui and addon changes, ai and text to speech stuff... they act like a big tech company almost, in these random offshoots. I really just with they would be a boring desktop browser and internet standards organization like I remember long ago.


This.

(Firefox is pretty nice. A few hiccups on sites that focus mainly on chrome because FF became irrelevant regarding market share.)


Obligatory reminder that Mozilla Foundation does not develop Firefox. (That's a different layoff.)


Oh, really? Who develops firefox now?
