…Do they?
I feel like we are very close to a cyberpunk future where Alphabet doesn’t have to pretend.
And I feel that’s quite dismissive. Mozilla doesn’t have enough development resources as-is, hence the whole original article. And abandoning Servo. And a bunch of other things. If money was a non-concern, they wouldn’t be here.
The problem is a bit circular. Mozilla is flippant with money because they get it from Google and they act like it will be eternal. But just based on 2024 finances, Mozilla has enough money to keep running for about three years with no funding if expenses remain stable (123/41=3).
It's worth noting that Servo and competing engine Ladybird are still in development, and they do not get Mozilla money...
