Can confirm. I got it as a non-beta user while lurking. It also looked slightly different from screenshots others posted. So definitely being A/B tested with a few bugs (got PMed by a mod asking for details since users like me aren&#x2

I hope this post mortem includes insight into how the bug tracker is being handled. We've now seen with Cliqz and Looking Glass that there are certain members of the Mozilla team that have no qualms with making controversial tickets pr

Their behavior here with regards to handling the bug tracker is exactly the same as with Cliqz. So this isn't a one off thing. It's the start of a pattern and a dark one at that. And speaking of which, I made a post prior to FF57

In addition to what others have said, this is almost surely a messaging issue. How you frame the survey and outcome is critical to getting honest feedback. I bet the surveys didn't detail exactly how things would be implemented and h

Ok, as someone who pledges a few dollars to many creators, this sucks. I also haven't seen any big improvements to their platform featurewise; I've been repeatedly asking for email digests since they took over Subabble and they ke

Work on the many educational and political tool ideas that I have kicking around in my head. Then get involved in local volunteer work in those areas (primarily teaching).

I'm not sure if you're claiming that my comment is fake, but I can assure you it's not. I'm also not apathetic as I've done everything possible including reminding everyone I know (yet again) to follow my steps in t

I'm one of the people who has had part of their identity used to submit false comments. Found out when a journalist emailed me asking me to do a survey and some additional comments months ago. I proceeded to sign up for an API key[1] t

Well for one thing, it was part of an actual release according to Mozilla's own blog post about it.[1] Second, that still doesn't answer my question about what happened with regards to Cliqz. Is it still being considered? What wer

Asked this a week ago in anticipation for the release but got no response.[1] Whatever happened with Cliqz? Is it still a part of the release? [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15643154

Is this a dupe? I can't find a previous discussion thread. Could someone link it?

But is that worth the damage to the brand? I tried to support Firefox for as long as I could, but their mixed messages about what they stood for + poor performance (at the time) eventually forced my hand in switching browsers. However, they

I'm going to repeat the same thing I said during the whole Pocket fiasco. Why not have this pre-installed as an add-on but disabled? You can make an announcement on the updates page with your reasoning, and users who feel like this is

For a high end products, one of the things I will splurge on is warranty since I tend to keep bigger purchases on a much longer update cycle. Considering Google's reputation for poor customer service, I took at look through their &quot

Also interested in hearing if they really stopped using React Native as a whole. Especially since their react-native-maps library is the defacto library for maps. It would be quite scary if they decided to stop using React Native. Right now

I never heard of that acronym, CADT, so I had to look it up. For the curious, it stands for "Cascade of Attention-Deficit Teenagers" model.[1] And that exact scenario... wow. I've run into it before and have taken the effort

Getting deja vu reading this several years ago. I think someone, maybe Stack Overflow, actually did this as part of their hiring process. I think the devs that were brought in were even paid for their work during this time.

I'm not well versed enough in the various licenses to compare BSD+Patents and MIT, but in my opinion, this is more of a move to appease the community than anything dealing with the benefits/disadvantages of the license being used.

Anecdotally, as a user, I actually noticed this two weeks ago when certain ads started to feel like they were following me around in other subreddits. It creeped me out enough and was annoying enough (ex: I don't want to hear about tec

Can anyone with a legal background or have connections to news outlets validate this? I read through the terms and this really does seem to be the case. However, I am certainly not in a position to decide this. It would alleviate my concern

$1k, $100, that's far too low in my opinion even for a warning shot. As someone who has had their info leaked by two universities before, both of whom subsequently paid for multiple years of credit/fraud protection, the sheer pain
