>they spend 650 million $ on wages per year
>all of the money comes from google
>rely mostly on free contributed codeslop

is there a better scam in teach at the moment ?
>>
considering ai exists, yes there is
>>
>>109981442
fuck mozilla, they showed once again where their priorities are, in retarded design changes nobody was asking for instead of making the browser better to get to a level of chrome where every website works.
>>
>>109981499
nigga chrome is the singular reason why firefox doesn't work as well, google deliberately hijacked the web development pushing out their APIs that only work on chrome
>>
FF is intentionally hobbled by Google and exists only to guard them from monopoly lawsuits.
>>
>>109981542
This has been proven when Mozilla sided with Google at Google's monopoly trial. They were about to be broken up but Mozilla fought against it.
>>
>>109981442
>>all of the money comes from google
FALSE!
It's just 85% (source: their 2024 financial report)
>>
it is made by indians for indians

then why are people still using firefox? a cucked browser which is worse tech wise. as if those 5 people who use it would safe the web
>>
>>109981634
>then why are people still using firefox? a cucked browser
incels do be like that
>>
>>109981634
Because Google seems to stay out of Mozilla's when it comes to the development of Firefox. They could have told them to adhere to drop Manifest v2 and remove ad blockers. If they ever do that, yeah Firefox is dead and Mozilla won't survive with thei louse VPN service or whatever they're trying to do now.

>>109981442
>controlled opposition
>install some buzzcut lesbian as the CEO who "earns" millions of dollars
it's a great scam
>>
Identity politics and haircuts do not matter on a technology related board. Go to /pol/ if you want to discuss brainlet shit.
>>
>>109981634
Because we don't want to get fucked? Will it ultimately matter? Probably not, but I'll do everything I can to avoid being fucked by Google.
>>
>>109981499
What websites don't work? This always gets brought up but i never run into any problems with any sites on firefox
>>
>>109981499
>level of chrome where every website works
Google have been spotted deliberately fucking up Youtube performance and functionality for competing browsers. If you favorite browser has trouble with some website it's probably Google's fault. Also most web devs nowadays have no idea what a web standard is.
>>
>>109981719
it does as they are the ones ruining technology by forcing their faggot/pajeet shit.
>>
>>109981729
try to run a video call in teams web for example on firefox, it just doesn't work
>>
>>109981751
Says it works in Firefox on the MS website, and from a quick google seems it was officially supported 2 years ago.
>>
>>109981751
did you press f12 to see what the console and network tabs were showing the last time you used teams on firefox?
>>
>>109981763
>>109981767
i tried a video call with a client on teams web on firefox and it told me to use a different browser lmao
>>
>>109981751
i do this multiple times a month at work with zero issues though?
>>
>>109981777
yeah I think there must be something fucky with his settings.
>>
>>109981777
>>109981782
but I must confess I tried it at the end of 2024 and since it told me to use a different browser I was using Chrome only for teams video calls since I didn't want to install their shit app.
maybe they have changed something and it works on firefox now?
haven't tried in firefox since then because it was embarassing when i had to let the client wait because of this lol
>>
>>109981499
>where every website works.
this is more that nobody tests their junk on FF before shipping it
>>
>>109981855
why would anyone care when the end consumer on ff is a troon ?
>>
>>109981868
because web devs are troons too
no back to your containment board
>>
>>109981855
i am a web shitter and I develop on firefox first and test on chrome later.
I am not the only one in our company who does this, so you are wrong here buddy
>>
>>109981442
Mozilla has over $1 billion in assets which really gets the noggin joggin as to why they claim they’ll have to shut down Firefox development without Google’s search deal. They had that much 5 years ago before Google even got hit with monopoly lawsuits.

Unfortunately this is how NGOs really are, western non-profits are usually either elaborate scams or backed by governments. Today Mozilla already said that they’re mostly focused on setting AI standards by making partnerships with smaller firms and going against the big dogs. Firefox is secondary because they know it’s never going to go get as high in share as it used to be, they’re hedging themselves as le nonprofit (billion dollar nonprofit btw) underdog against big tech almost as a web standards company

>>109981442
Imagine if mozilla spent 100% of their money on improving the browser instead of funneling 99% to sjw activism and 1% to shitty UI redesigns.
