okay, first off: hey, what the fuck?

mozilla has a A THOUSAND FOUR HUNDRED MILLIONS of dollars? what were all them cookie sales for thunderbird? oh yeah, they have this shell game of interlinked but not really entities so you can play whack-a-mole till the death of the universe.

and they wanna burn it dicking around with AI? fuck each and every ghoul steering that ship into the abyss, and they can take Gnome’s fucking shaman or whatwasit with them.

is everybody insane, “silicon valley” was supposed to be a satire, these cretins make mike judge seem like a prophet…

    How I interpret this :

    • Oh no, the very trend and thus powerful corporations are doing something stupid that does not work, let’s copy them!

    instead of just watch the sideline as they keep on pouring more resources with nothing to show for it except the buzz they keep so hard on trying to maintain.

    I wouldn’t be against it but… You don’t need to support companies or nonprofits, we already got DeepSeek and Qwen which are open source, they don’t need money, but they’re also not going to go that way because they’re Chinese. So they basically want some Western alternative, sure, whatever.

      AllenAI exists and is actually open source rather than just open weight.

    Might be imagining it, but I think there is enough proof somewhere that some Mozilla board members were paid or extorted by google to sabotage the organization

      You really don’t need to reach for conspiracy when the entirety of silicon valley has gone AI crazy.

        I think they’re talking about how Mozilla has consistently made bad decisions for years at this point. Not necessarily because of Google though, they probably just don’t care.

      A lot of people don’t understand the fact that without Firefox there won’t be any Waterfox, Librewolf, Ironfox, Fennec, etc. So despite Mozilla doing some really, really stupid shit we should all keep our fingers crossed the browser somehow manage to survive their leadership.

      I actually think servo has a much better chance of making it, because it is better managed, supported by the Linux Foundation and their lead devs don’t give weird right-wing vibes like “Andreas Kling”.
