Ladybird is building a browser with a couple million dollars, why can't Mozilla do the same? The total amount of donation Ladybird got so far probably isn't enough to pay half of a year's salary of Mozilla's management, this is absurd.
We don't need strategy, we don't need vision, or any of that kind of bullshit. We just need a team of good developers sitting down and write a browser.

"The sailors on board a ship don't need a captain; they just need to sail." Admiral Nelson could have been replaced by democratic voting and focus groups. Reality: Anarchy only works in very small settings.
- nialv7 1y ago"a group of developers" =/= no leadership. Do you think the current Mozilla CEO helps with Firefox development in any way?
- const_cast 1y ago> Ladybird is building a browser with a couple million dollars, why can't Mozilla do the same? 1. Ladybird isn't currently competing with Mozilla or anyone, so this is hypothetical. 2. It's a different problem space, because Mozilla is maintaining a decades old browser. 3. Mozilla is developing a very good browser considering how much money they have. They're competitive with Chrome on features and performance, while Google is dedicating much more money towards Chrome.
