For me, their commitment to hire people working on generative AI while dropping a bunch of smaller projects is the biggest red flag.
A lot of users are also upset about their efforts to create privacy respecting ads. The counterargument being that we don’t want ads at all.
They seem to be making increasingly corporate decisions, or at least that’s the fear of critics. Some people previously close to the organization has spoken out against it.
I’m sure there are a lot of people on here better suited than me at giving a summary.
Big corpor who overpays their higher ups while ruining their most important product for years does a rebrand to show how quirky and amazing they are instead of fixing the problems at their company? Nah. I’m sure “this is fine”!
Is this a bad sign or omen ?
I guess you could read it as an indication of commitment to their change of direction. And their new direction sucks.
So yeah, I don’t read it as a good sign.
I would love to love Mozilla. I still like Firefox. But it seems everything they are doing is the opposite of what I would have wanted them to.
Haven’t been keeping up, like what? Do you read this as just classic soulless marketing? Or is that too far?

Thanks very much!
