I love how "build a fucking browser" isn't even an option
I will note that the foundation never built any browser, only the corporation.
On the other hand I will echo some recent articles titles: “Mozilla Foundation lays off 30% staff, drops advocacy division”

The foundation does own the corporation though, no?

@vcunat:matrix.orgvcunatEither way, I get that it's easy for people to conflate their activities, as it's all "Mozilla".10:54:47
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyI think the corporation is maybe meant to be operationally independent or something?10:54:49
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyI don't know, it's confusing.10:54:57
@nbp:mozilla.orgnbpYes, the foundation own the corporation, but it only decide of the top-level directions, as being part of the board, but not on the product features for example.10:57:14
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyis the corporation or the foundation the one that Google pays?10:58:40
@nbp:mozilla.orgnbpWhat this survey highlight to me is: “please validate our confirmation biais, please select the A and I options.”10:58:43
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyI suppose the former?10:58:46
@nbp:mozilla.orgnbpGoogle pays the Corporation, for making room in the browser UI and redirecting people to them.10:59:27
