Maybe, donating to Mozilla would be nice, instead of giving to Wikipedia or other projects that don't need more money.

- AnonHP 6y agoDonations to Mozilla go to Mozilla Foundation, the non-profit organization. These layoffs are in Mozilla Corporation, which doesn’t get the donated money and is mainly funded by the partnership with Google for the search engine setting in Firefox.
- jdashg 6y agoThe foundation can totally fund the corporation at their leisure, so I'm not sure where this idea is coming from. Money is fungible, and if the foundation thinks the best use is funding e.g. dev-tools, they can either direct money to the corporation or how engineers themselves. (Usually the latter)
- a-nikolaev 6y agoAny proper form of crowd funding Mozilla would be a nice thing to do, since they are doing a lot of work for our common good.
