Wikipedia having a higher turnover than Mozilla from contribution alone is a counter-example.
And if Google is being split, then Chrome will also need to find a monetization strategy, opening the perspective for Mozilla.
- Karunamon 3y agoThe bar to contribute to a software project of any size is many times higher than the bar to contribute to Wikipedia. If you were speaking monetarily, Wikipedia has a gargantuan user count and good will to match, where Mozilla has spent the last few years squandering both of those.
- littlestymaar 3y agoI'm not talking about code contribution here, but about money. Wikipedia raises every year from donation more than what Mozilla gets from its pact with the devil. I agree with you though that Mozilla has spent most of its good will, and that a donation-based model would have been much easier to pull-off a few years back than it is now.
