A few days ago I posted about how Mozilla accepting cryptocurrency had created a stir, Mozilla has listened to people's responses and is halting cryptocurrency donations until they review the current state of crypto to see if it is in line with their stance on the climate. They have said they will have an open and transparent process involving this.

Yeah, I doubt most of the people who complained about them accepting cryptocurrency will be donating in a traditional sense now.

And, like, there's definitely worse decisions to be backpedaling on, but I definitely don't want them backpedaling on more decisions in the future, just because there's a shitstorm. Because there's pretty much always a shitstorm whenever Mozilla does anything.
