I wish I had telemetry

I'm sure they do as Mozilla is an ad company

This is apparently either not widely known or some people just like to shoot the messenger.

While you are not wrong your dislike of Mozilla is has more to do with your instance being anti west. I'm not sure I'm ready to side with lemmyml

I happen to know jwz personally, and he knows Mozilla intimately: he founded it. His dislike of Mozilla is pretty much the same as mine, and he is neither “anti west” nor anti liberal. We dislike Mozilla because it has lost its way from being a FOSS browser maintainer and a booster for & steward of an open web.

And I’m not “anti-West,” I’m anti-capitalist, anti-settler-colonialist, and anti-imperialist; and those happen to be things that “the West” presently embodies.
