Why not? I mean, seriously. Why cannot the Foundation transfer $245k to the Corporation to help fund salaries of workers? Apparently they can award $245k to an artist, so why cannot they award $245k to a developer? I'm a big fan of Mozilla. Really big fanboi. I've been using a Gecko-based browser since the painful days of the Mozilla Application Suite. When Mozilla released the standalone Firefox, I was sold and it has been my primary browser ever since. But the shenanigans that Mozilla (be it the Corporation or the Foundation) has been up to is really starting to doubt the long-term ability of Mozilla (be it the Corporation or the Foundation) to deliver what to me is their primary product; a software libre browser that is competitive in terms of feature set, usability and speed (and nowadays; respects my privacy). I grant you; the Mozilla Foundation and the Mozilla Corporation are two different legal entities. But for me that doesn't really matter; I want them to deliver the bloody best browser there is, that's why I gave them (the Mozilla Foundation, not the Mozilla Corporation, my bad) my money. If Mozilla (the Foundation) really wants to do advocacy, let them do advocacy for a secure, private, decentralized Internet. That's what their (Mozilla the Corporation) primary product is all about. Trying to have the fingers in all the jars is just bad optics and confuses the heck out of people that want them to focus on a good browser and maybe the surrounding technology. Like for example Common Voice[0] or Servo[1], two projects that are after the layoffs by Mozilla (the Corporation) seriously in danger of failing.
