I am tired of Firefox shitty takes.

    I wish there was a better way to do it but sadly right now this is it. If you want independent browsers to continue they need funding from somewhere.

      They can take the salary of the CEO to fund the browser, they can ask for donations that go directly to the browser, they can make subscriptions with useful services. So many ideas that they didn’t try in the past 10 years. But it’s easier to get free money from Google and do nothing.

        I’d love to live in whatever fantasy land selfless compassionate CEO’s come from, sadly it’s just a fantasy.

          I don’t think it matters whether the person is compassionate or selfless. It should be a position with a low fixed salary and a bug bounty. That way if the CEO wants to get paid, they have to directly contribute to the browser. Create the job and the compensation around your ideal candidates.

          I think most people would be happy if the Mozilla CEOs “only” got a few hundreds of thousands of dollars per year. The current pay is literally millions.
