I’m gonna say it louder for the folks in the back: Mozilla is not what you think it is. Mozilla is not what they say they are. Mozilla is just another for-profit Silicon Valley tech company that has a not-for-profit doing its PR.

Wow so the #Mozilla engineer disagrees and claims "#GDPR has done a great deal of harm" (I didn't understand his argument why) but now diverted to saying the #browser should be the platform collect all the personal data and then provide it in aggrega…EUpolicy.social - A Mastodon server for the EU bubble

in reply to Václav Vančura • • •@vancura @Vivaldi There’s no perfect browser, and it’s good to hold Firefox to a high standard along with all the others, but context matters.
It seems like there are two primary options: either a browser based on Chromium or one based on Firefox.
And the Chromium family already has more than 70% market share, creating a kind monoculture.
Maybe one day there will be a strong third option based on LadyBird or something else, but that’s not today
