> Google pays Mozilla up to $420 million per year... What the hell is Mozilla doing with that money? How useless are all those people?

  Mitchell Baker has “a family to feed”. (IIRC her salary increased something like 10 folds over the past 15 years or so) Edit: It has jumped from $490k[1] to $6.25M[2] from 2009 to 2024. Edit 2: by looking the figures up, I learned that she's gone at last, good riddance (though I highly doubt her successor is going to take a 12-fold pay cut) [1]: https://static.mozilla.com/foundation/documents/mf-2009-irs-form-990.pdf https://static.mozilla.com/foundation/documents/mf-2009-irs-... page 8 [2]: https://assets.mozilla.net/annualreport/2024/b200-mozilla-foundation-form-990-public-disclosure-ty23.pdf https://assets.mozilla.net/annualreport/2024/b200-mozilla-fo... page 8 as well.

  It bothers me they can't even seem to design a user interface that looks like it came out of the last decade. Thunderbird is an even bigger mess.

    At least Thunderbird makes big changes now without any big funding. Firefox on the other hand is getting.... a new mascot https://www.firefox.com/kit/ https://www.firefox.com/kit/

    What needs changed, it’s nearly identical to Chrome
