This is going to affect Firefox a lot more than it will affect Apple. At least Apple have options to shift money around. Firefox doesn't.
Good! Maybe Mozilla can stop being shit and paying their CEOs tens of millions while looking for ways to enshittify Firefox.
Googles money has ruined Mozilla.
“A lack of money will prevent them from doing shitty things for money!”
I get what you’re going for, but it’s likely googles money that has slowed down the enshitification process.
Indeed. But it seems one isn't allowed to criticize Mozilla here, so wait for downvotes or enraged replies.
People criticize Mozilla all the time here. Look at the post about changing their privacy statement.
And they are systematically downvoted to hell.
Here is a link to said post in this community: Firefox deletes promise to never sell personal data, asks users not to panic | Mozilla says it deleted promise because "sale of data" is defined broadly
The top post is critical of Mozilla has a 250 / 4 ratio. Where do you see systematic downvoting?
One data point isn't statistically significant.
There are over a hundred comments critical of Mozilla on that post.
Here's a follow up post. Mozilla is already revising its new Firefox terms to clarify how it handles user data
Over a 50 comments. I don't see any evidence of systematic downvoting.
Where do you see systematic downvoting?
Also what is your definition of systematic? Is 4 downvotes systematic to you?
