    Unfortunately, there are the ame stuff about Firefox too. Mozilla Foundation is such a corrupt organization with extreme shady finances.

    Foundation’s main income is royalties by google: 567M per year.

    Donations: 7M (which almost goes to the CEO’s bonuses)

    the CEO gets 700K salary and 4.6M bonuses. Lmao.

    I’d suggest, using Firefox but not donating to them.

      Google keeps Mozilla alive to give the appearance of competition.

      Mozilla is not doing too well, but they are far from being Brave Software Inc. or Google. It’s not like choosing between Musk and Zuckerberg. It’s like choosing between Neil deGrasse Tyson and Hitler.

      Not to forget that around 70% of the revenues cone from a single, non-disclosed, customer. My wild guess: it’s Google…

      EDIT: And they just significantly reduced their expenditures for Software Development
