For comments like these I wonder how a Firefox developer would read it. You're doing an honest job on an open source browser, fixing bugs, patching vulnerabilities, adding features to keep up with web standards, knowing virtually nobody pays for it — Google needs to fund your paycheck because no one else can be arsed. And then you see opinions like the ones in this thread about how evil you "obviously" are and how you're supposedly milking the brand name
> painfully obvious [that it's] time to fork Firefox and kick Mozilla to the curb
What's probably painful and apparently not obvious is how many developer hours go into upkeep and staying current for a modern browser (to me, they seem about as complex and elaborate as your average operating system, not that that's necessarily a good thing)
