Selling products and services
They’ve tried, notice how many of their products and services with a cost get shut down?
Their power users are too picky for what they offer, and the normie users wouldn’t want a product the power users demand.
It sounds like a management issue. They keep frolicking around and not listening to the userbase. There is no reason other than management that Mozilla couldn’t be a profitable and sustainable company. They create some half baked thing no one asked for and then kill it off.
And then SimpleLogin comes, as just one example, and succeeds. Mozilla obviously messed up all their efforts, for one reason or another.

what products and services?
Theyve tried that many times already
Not really
They create 100 random things no one wanted and then offered then mostly for free. They have a massive management problem. I think the biggest issue is how risk adverse they are. They don’t want to take big risks so they instead take a bunch of small useful risks that fail. They need to start something and then commit. Also baking more things into Firefox is not the way forward. They need stuff that is separate and useful.
they tried a bucnh of paid services, like their vpn, email alias and data broker remover.
Do you think you can come up with a better idea?
Why not ask the CEO of Mozilla? They’re paid to have all the smart ideas, allegedly.
