I see more than a few comments with some form of "I would pay if X/if not X/does X/does not X". The article, which has limited details, says that it would b some bundled services, such as a VPN service (like what Mozilla partnered with ProtonVPN for as a limited trial before) and online cloud storage.
At this time, it doesn't seem like this would be a paid version of the Firefox browser with a different feature set. Any decision of that kind could confuse people and hurt the Firefox brand, IMO.
Can we instead put out our wishlist of services that we'd want Mozilla to handle because we trust it?
1. I'm stealing at least one idea from elsewhere in this discussion, which is a private paid email service with standard protocol support (like IMAP) with cheaper pricing for multiple mailboxes.
2. Another would be a revival of the Persona (authentication) project and service. In light of Apple's announcement of "Sign in with Apple" in WWDC, this would make a lot more sense for people who trust Apple now, but don't really like the idea of trusting a for-profit corporation forever or have some other reservations with "Sign in with Apple". Persona can actually work with "Sign in with Apple" and many other providers.
3. A hosted Bitwarden or Bitwarden-like service that can work on multiple platforms and browsers could be interesting.
