Why can't they just use the Wikipedia model? That should bring in enough to cover development and operating costs.
Because a browser is several orders of magnitudee more complex than a website.
Wikimedia is even using php still. Firefox created Rust I believe, in order to advance.
Rust was originally created by a Mozilla dev as a hobby project. Also, the Mozilla rust team was fired in 2020 during a "restructuring".
Ah weird.
"Weird"
It seems like such an import project.
People in charge of Mozilla are there to cock block Firefox. Similar with Signal
These are just my opinions though but I learned long time ago to look at what they do, not what they say. Thay will generally get me closer to the truth.
Corpos MO is to always lie, I think they call it "Public Relations"
