Thank Mozilla for Killing Localization on Support Mozilla (And Replacing Human Contributions With AI Bots) (www.quippd.com)

TL;DR: Mozilla is killing localization on Support Mozilla, overwriting articles written by humans with machine generated translations. Although Mozilla knows that their AI doesn’t localize or adhere to style guides, Mozilla is going live with it anyway. I thank locale leaders and localizers for their tireless efforts. Locale leaders seem to be obviated by AI, and Mozilla has nothing to say about it.

Take a look at servo (https://servo.org/). Not anywhere close to being a robust browser but still something to be excited about.

Servo and Ladybird are both worth keeping an eye on, but neither is even close to be ready yet, unfortunately

No matter what you think of Eich. The Eich era of Firefox/Mozilla was their golden years. I miss them.

[–] yoasif@fedia.io 1 points 2 weeks ago

Eich was a failure. He sat on e10s for years while Chrome continued gaining marketshare. The path to monetization is something he says he wanted to do at Mozilla but did at Brave instead.

At Brave, he started with a Gecko offshoot but couldn't make it work and retreated to Chromium.

i wish vivaldi would switch to gecko tbh (preferably pre quantum gecko)
