Comment on Firefox Will Ship with an "AI Kill Switch" to Completely Disable all AI Features - 9to5Linux

  I probably would, if the organizational structure and its spending focus(es) weren’t so fucked up. They have been spending insane amounts of money on bullshit like AI instead of core browser features, and their leadership has extremely high wages for something that should be a non-profit open source organization. And it has been like this for years at this point.

    Their CEO makes more than I think CEOs should earn in general, but the rest of their executives earn relatively normal to low salaries for their roles and the sector.

    Non-profit doesn’t mean everyone works for free.

    Well to be fair they only had that or onlyfans to get paid to sit there playing with themselves.

      They’d have done less damage going for the OF option.

        I mean, I bet they’d make a killing off of Firefox themed thigh highs…

  You can donate to Mozilla, you cannot donate to Firefox.

    Which is probably a good thing. I appreciate projects like Thunderbird as well.

      No money you donate to Mozilla Foundation goes to either Firefox (MozCorp) or Thunderbird (MZLA).
      They are separate entities.

  That’s what I call reverse reasoning.

  You sound like mozilla is adding because of lack of donations meanwhile correct is there is lack of donations because features nobody asked for like AI.

  Pretty much this.

  They are making market based decisions because they have to, and all the users bitching and moaning about them making financially driven decisions don’t donate anyways.

  Then let’s

  How? Where? I’ll donate, take my money, and ads a voting system where paying users can vote for the next features

  I would donate if I ever had spare money but I never do.

      Make fun of the poors yeah?

      • ripcord@lemmy.world ⁨14⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        No, I just don’t believe they really can’t spare $5.

        Maybe they can’t but I’m skeptical.
