And this is why we not only need to reduce our dependence on China in the long run but also our dependence on the US.

There’s just no way a sovereign state live while depending on US monopolies.

There’s no way individual donations from ordinary people could match Google’s. They’re also likely to be less reliable.

Thank god. I do really believe all the Google money is actively stifling innovation at Mozilla. The only thing they can’t do is building a better browser than chrome is, for fear of becoming a viable alternative again.

So they use the money for some CEO pay. and weird projects while Firefox further falls from popularity.

I hope for the day Firefox’s market share has dropped to a level tha Google just won’t pay any money anymore for the default search engine deal.

That day - and not one day before - innovation will resume.

I did. I rage-signed up for a monthly contribution to the Servo project the last time I read about something Mozilla did.

Recently I go fucking annoyed by Mozilla that I rage-contributed (monthly payment) to Servo.

Mozilla is such a shit show.
