    I’m out of the loop. What are the many problems with Mozilla?

    I saw you mention the Mr. Robot extension in another comment. That looks to be a bad decision but what else are the “many problems?”

      Most problems are because of how Mozilla works. According to some devs, they gatekeep some contributions and they don’t really act and communicate with the community like FOSS projects are expected to. They also spend a lot of money on some - useless - stuff. They’re really slow to improve their software and Firefox defaults with some questionable stuff (regular pings, Google bullshit…)

      The Better bird dev talks a bit about this, and you also have some other resources: https://youtu.be/ugnOM2mzgNU (I don’t remember every link and everything I’ve seen but this should be a good start)
