I for one would love to throw money at Mozilla, or any alternative, that has experienced developers behind it, doesn’t have conflicts of interest and acts on behalf of its users. This is why I donate to Servo, Ladybird and Dillo too (I know one of these is not like the others 😄).
I don’t think they’d reach their current levels of funding through donations, but it might be possible to get enough together to keep it on life support.
I know this wouldn’t be perfect, but surely better than losing it completely.

They had many years to fund alternative source of income instead of google,they trying to catch each trend of big corps for some reason.I really hate their CEO and all leadership they just destroying Mozilla inside instead of recover plan they coul release many years they didn’t mind to be dependent from Mozilla.Also as know relationship inside coworkers really bad everyone doing what they want or not,if u try bring new ideas to CEO and if not close to him/her u fucked up.So it cannot go anywhere else rather than this enshitication while organization management process are like that way.Unfortunately it will die because of reasons above

Yup, I think this is the root cause for Mozilla’s inevitable failure: the wrong management for the job.
