The Mozilla Foundation, the non-profit arm of the Firefox browser maker Mozilla, has laid off 30% of its employees as the organization says it faces a “relentless onslaught of change.”

Is that the place where they fire people while increasing the CEO salary or is this something else, the Mozilla setup is so confusing.
the advocacy is the reason why i continued to support mozilla/firefox.
this is horrible. :(
Yeah, I’m sort of hoping the folks they laid off weren’t actually the advocacy folks, and they’re just additionally doing the restructure and moving the advocacy folks into the other departments.
But yeah, I don’t fucking know what to think of it. I do have a base-level of trust that they’d make a sensible decision in some dimension. But I’d really like to know more where they’re headed now…
Ailing company? Cut it to pieces, that’ll probably fix it. I’d like the idea better if I could believe there’s a chance in hell they’d choose the right 30%.
Sorry, but no. The people making the cutting decisions are not going to cut their own jobs; and they are always part of the problem. It’s why companies only get more shitty over time.
RIP Mozilla Foundation 🪦
Not dead yet 🙏
Kind of expected when Google was declared a monopoly in the courts.
Google has the deal with the Mozilla Corporation, whereas this is the Mozilla Foundation. It should have relatively little influence, if any…
