I am definitely starting to hate #Mozilla.
As a remark: I have always been fine with their deal with Pocket and having Google as their default search engine. In the end, there are bills to be paid.
Until I learned that e.g. Mozilla Corporation's CEO is on a multi-million dollar salary, and they're hiring ai and ad people.
Not OK for an entity where many highly skilled people code for free.
It's not what users want the cash to be spent on.
Leaving the Fedi is the final drop
I think you might be overestimating how much code is contributed by unpaid volunteers...
