Update was from 3 days ago, I'm really hopeful ladybird could be a future browser option to help break the stranglehold chrome has over the market, while Mozilla is struggling to find meaningful direction.

It seems like an exciting project with monthly progress updates :) they keep chipping away at compatibility.

In short, they're trying to make much more money to pay the executives' 7 figure salaries, and are giving up browser privacy to do so.

7 figure salary ? for an oss project ? that doesn't sound good or sustainable at all

And remember that Mozilla is supposed to be a non-profit.

I don't understand how it makes sense for a nonprofit to make it so profitable to their executives to manage it... why is that not regulated?
