    I didn't realize the facebook execs Mozilla acqui-hired last year have been promoted! I was assuming they were still just heading the ads division of Mozilla, but oh boy, I fucking wish.

    Now the
    former Senior VP of Marketing of facebook (2008-2022, the finest years of facebook) is the CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER of the entire Mozilla.

    And the
    former VP of Ads in Facebook (2012-2022), is now the Senior VP of Product of Mozilla.

    Let me repeat this:

    The guy who used to lead the facebook team that was literally "
    advertising to teenagers based on their emotional state" is now the guy who decides the direction of Firefox as a product. But hey, let's keep giving Mozilla the benefit of the doubt uh? I'm sure these people-who-should-be-on-trial-in-the-hague are going to do great things for the community!

        Probably one of the many reasons Mozilla has lost its way, HARD!

        @librewolf is my choice these days!

                    @javi@goblin.band

                    The last major selling point of Gecko/Firefox was privacy. Today, however, Mozilla has become an ad company, and Firefox is bundled not with just one AI, but with nearly every mainstream AI available. On top of that, many webmasters no longer test their site rendering with Gecko/Firefox, as its market share has fallen below 3%.

                    There’s really no point in staying with Firefox other than being different, while telling yourself there’s still a choice — when that choice is no longer meaningful.

                    I switched to the Vivaldi browser, the only mainstream browser without built-in AI, and haven’t looked back.

                              @javi@goblin.band time to ditch Firefox. Mozilla has become part of the Evil Empire. Hey, Raspberry, when are you going to start supporting other browsers than Chrome and Firefox?

                                      The guy who used to lead the facebook team that was literally "
                                      advertising to teenagers based on their emotional state" is now the guy who decides the direction of Firefox as a product. But hey, let's keep giving Mozilla the benefit of the doubt uh? I'm sure these people-who-should-be-on-trial-in-the-hague are going to do great things for the community!

                                        @muhkayoh Harsh but increasingly true. Switched everything to Waterfox for now. No issues so far, beyond a few Android apps insisting they're not compatible with it.
