minus-squarealvanrahimli@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up37arrow-down12·1 year agoUnfortunately, there are the ame stuff about Firefox too. Mozilla Foundation is such a corrupt organization with extreme shady finances. Foundation’s main income is royalties by google: 567M per year. Donations: 7M (which almost goes to the CEO’s bonuses) the CEO gets 700K salary and 4.6M bonuses. Lmao. I’d suggest, using Firefox but not donating to them.

minus-squarealvanrahimli@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·1 year agoYes, exactly. They already know that fines for monopoly is more expensive that half a billion to spare to mozilla, lol. Such a bad time to live. I only have hope to Ladybird 🐞 now 🥺
