(if only Firefox were getting funding directly…)
- Multicomp 3y agoI was about to say, if this is _too_ successful, Thunderbird may find themselves with a target on their back, so Mozilla doesn't have to keep fielding questions from users about how they can fund Firefox directly instead of general donations. Only joking (I hope).
- yamtaddle 3y agoMaybe Thunderbird will spin off a light, snappy little web browser with excellent quality-of-life features and a no-nonsense UI.
- AwaAwa 3y agoI'd buy that for a dollar. Maybe even 2. Really does feel like the fire has gone out of the fox.
- yamtaddle 3y agoI've been disliking Firefox since before it was cool (the last versions I really loved were somewhere in the 1.x series, and I used to set my theme on later versions to something in the 0.x range, though I forget exactly which one)
- donio 3y agoThey could call it Phoenix. Or Firebird.
- spopejoy 3y agoOr Iceweasel
- Sytten 3y agoI donate to Thunderbird but not firefox because of all the bullshit moves I saw them do over the past few years
- tristan957 3y agoYou cannot donate to Firefox. Firefox is developed by the Mozilla Corporation, which is owned by the Mozilla Foundation. The Mozilla Corporation shares profits with the Foundation, so that the Foundation can advance its goals.
- scns 3y agoYou can pay for their VPN (Mullvad rebrand) or email masking service called Relay.
- ktosobcy 3y agoNo, I can't as I don't live in supported country. Nevertheless - does it go directly to Firefox or to Mozilla?
