How do you think they will do that without any money?

It's always "just do the browser" , ignoring the fact that everything you listed doesn't matter at all to the general public who are likely using Chrome because it's the default on their device.

Mozilla is trying to find revenue sources but people just complain about it.

The AI integration is clearly attempting to be a new search box.

Look at the executives pay of Mozilla, there is a lot of money there to start with.

It isn't though. At the higher end the last ceo was making 7 million. That is roughly 12 enginees after compensation and everything else.. It isn't nothing but it's less than 5 percent of the employees they laid off a year ago.

Increasing executive pay is a problem but it will barely move the needle.

For what it's worth, I would have no issue payibgif I knew that money didn't go in the pockets of a few executives :)
