Please, Mozilla, explain in detail exactly in which way the internet is changing again, that requires you to return to Faschitter? Please help me make sense of this.

Cutting off Twitter means losing potential audience. It was an ideological stance when they did it, now nothing ideological is left at MozCorp.

The only way to get ahead in today's world is to abandon all of your principles. What a shitty set-up.

Fucking cowards. So many spineless losers who clutched their pearls after The Salute and pledged to leave. Too many other cowards stayed, so now they go back because “we can’t lose touch with all the cowards”.

It's just that classic corporate moral grandstanding in another flavor, like companies who are pro-Pride for June but forget queer people exist 11 months of the year, or worse, only have Pride acknowledgement during Democrat presidencies.

Virtually every (large) (for-profit) company's moral compass is: Get more money.

If fully endorsing Hitler would result in a 1% rise in profits, they'd do it.

Twitter is litterally the easiest platform to stay away from...

I support Firefox doing whatever Firefox needs to do to keep doing what they do.....

I won't fucking touch it, but I need them to continue to exist so I can use forks of it like waterfox and librewolf

What was the good reason to go back onto that right wing extremist pedophile platform?

So I guess Firefox holds respect in zero value. There's no excuse for returning to Twitter.

Oh fuck off Mozilla. You really want to contribute to finance fucking nazis because "That's where people are"? What a world of spineless losers we have built.

[–] ExtremeDullard@piefed.social 79 points 6 days ago (54 children)

Mozilla is embracing the fasch like all the other motherfuckers.

Firefox could do nothing but provide a standard working browser and be loved, but instead they go out of their way to be hated

"we're here as and independent voice".

Yeah, sure. Tell Donald Trump, Elon Musk and Israel to fuck off, just to test your independence.

[–] Snapz@lemmy.world 46 points 6 days ago

No excuse. Fucking cowards

This really requires the angry goose meme with the goose yelling: "Why did you take time off x?"

"we're ok with the Nazi platform..."

Mozilla doesn't really like it's users. It wants it's users to be Chrome users. I've said for too many years that they need to stop copying Google and forge their own path, that's how you change the browser market, not copying everyone else.

The internet is changing how btw? Are they referring to the sloppening?

Very disappointing.

[–] Zedstrian@sopuli.xyz 48 points 6 days ago

Mozilla is truly going for tech bro territory with an unhealthy dose of AI mixed with fascism.

[–] Lanske@lemmy.world 29 points 6 days ago

Fuck off Mozilla

[–] gedaliyah@lemmy.world 30 points 6 days ago (6 children)

Ridiculous.

Don't forget how quickly they shut down their Mastodon instance even though it cost them nothing.

Damn, it's refreshing to see the comments here. The reddit sub seems mostly unmoderated and now there are a bunch of Elon fanboys screaming words they don't understand.
