Firefox is a good example of "either you die a hero or live long enoigh to see yourself become the villian"
It's also an example of a smaller company trying fight a mega Corp with infinite money, gained via unethical means.
People are shitting on Firefox while ignoring what they are up against.
I have no solution for their funding issue, what are they supposed to do? Charge for the browser or ads? There's literally no other alternative and I don't know what the solution is.
What I do know is that once FF dies and chrome fully owns the web we are well and truly fucked.
Honesty it might already be too late.
Basically, Firefox only crushes a handful of elderly cats while everyone else crushes kittens by the shipload.
