Ads?
Nothing says you have to track users, if you're not looking to optimize ad monetization per user.
And I daresay there are a fair number of companies who would love to get even blind exposure to Mozilla's userbase.
- pseudalopex 11mo agoWhy would people use Mozilla's app and not WhatsApp, iMessage, Signal, or others?
- ethbr1 11mo agoPrivacy, availability, popularity respectively.
- mikestorrent 11mo agoSignal is already ostensibly private, available, and popular enough, and doesn't have ads... why compete? IMO Mozilla should just double down on the browser and do everything they can to keep it as a lifeline for Free Software devices to be able to participate on the internet as first class citizens.
- fsflover 11mo agoSignal intentionally made their messaging rely on a single, central point of failure, perfect for targeting by all sorts of criminals and governments. If Mozilla provides a Matrix server, I will seriously consider it.
