What is wrong with you people downvoting this perfectly logical comment lol! You can't be competitive against one of the biggest tech companies while being fully free and burning through money. Whatever Mozilla does, I see people reacting with shit like "oh let's find another browser". Like it or not, unlike you, they realized the only way to succeed in beating Google is to be profitable, and friendly towards other companies. They said it themselves: "We will focus more on partnerships and will become friendlier towards other tech-related related companies to find common grounds on issues like privacy".
But fear not, they are still a non-profit. I'm sure if your stupid ass brains can think of them as the bad guys the second they talk about monetization, they know that they shouldn't push it too much as well. Fucking let them be successful please smh.
PS: I'm sorry for the lay-offs as well...
