Yeah sure, but I'm not very convinced this is the best way for them to make money. And you also have to keep in mind that company internal decisions have been really bad, which got augmented by covid. The whole absurd CEO salary is a fine example of the downhill path Mozilla is taking...

I understand what you (and many other say) but....why not give some alternative ideas on how to make money as well?

[–] tmpod 2 points 2 years ago

Because I am not qualified to make good proposals, nor do I know the inner workings of Mozilla. I could spew out some ideas but nothing that could concretely be implemented.

I can, however, criticize them in an attempt to raise aawareness and directly, or indirectly, make them work on solving the issues. And as I mentioned, my biggest grudge with them isn't even this (which won't be that big of a problem since you can turn it off), but rather completely derranged distribution of salaries that Mozilla has.
