I wish I could just buy out Mozilla outright so that they could you know, focus on building a browser. Alas, my wallets nowhere near big enough to do so.

Leave all the business ventures to a completely different (named too) org. I grow tired of them starting something great and then stopping because they've wasted funds. Like oxidizing Firefox I was really excited for. Sadly they stopped while they had broken amazing ground.

It isn't just the business ventures. Mozilla has pissed away funds on feel good activities that have nothing to do with developing a browser.

Let's not forget giving their CEO raises and bonuses while holding layoffs the same year.

They are cooked.

Yeah I agree, I'm sure we're not even scratching the surface.
