@P4ulin_Kbana@lemmy.eco.br You can follow the link in the ref and read comments: it’s about a leadership decision of Mozilla to close their Mastodon instance. They do this while they invest a lot on AI.
In short, it’s Mozilla governance that is going more and more full speed into a “capitalism tech bro” mindset, at the cost of a more and more visible departure of the Free/Libre software community. A decision that I qualify of them being clowns, now. And I parody the meme https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/putting-on-clown-makeup for that.

Mozilla are doing the same AI integration as all the other browsers, so lemmings have decided that Mozilla is evil now.

Which is so stupid. Only a good browser with AI can stop a dead internet filled with AI junk.

It’s an arms race. But now the arms go off randomly and sometimes shoot things behind you. But corporate has spent so much money on it that we can’t turn back now

@davidrevoy@framapiaf.org A for-profit corporation that absolutely loathes feedback from end users and community members, except when it’s dripping with praise for their latest attempt to appease techbro capitalists, is cutting off an avenue for feedback on a platform largely populated by people who violently hate techbro capitalism. I’m surprised it didn’t happen sooner.

How did this even happen? Is Mozilla made up entirely of people who didn’t get accepted by google?

Mozilla is less worse than Google et al, but let’s be frank - we need a community-developed browser. Enough of this corporate bullshit.

This is genuinely great, specially since they’re using their own web engine. Thanks for sharing, I’ll keep a closer eye at the project.

Rules

While we are not an official Mozilla community, we have adopted the Mozilla Community Participation Guidelines as far as it can be applied to a bin.

Rules

  1. Always be civil and respectful
    Don’t be toxic, hostile, or a troll, especially towards Mozilla employees. This includes gratuitous use of profanity.

  2. Don’t be a bigot
    No form of bigotry will be tolerated.

  3. Don’t post security compromising suggestions
    If you do, include an obvious and clear warning.

  4. Don’t post conspiracy theories
    Especially ones about nefarious intentions or funding. If you’re concerned: Ask. Please don’t fuel conspiracy thinking here. Don’t try to spread FUD, especially against reliable privacy-enhancing software. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Show credible sources.

  5. Don’t accuse others of shilling
    Send honest concerns to the moderators and/or admins, and we will investigate.

  6. Do not remove your help posts after they receive replies
    Half the point of asking questions in a public sub is so that everyone can benefit from the answers—which is impossible if you go deleting everything behind yourself once you’ve gotten yours.
