> Mozilla won't earn me as a user until their CEO is removed

So use LibreWolf like me:

Up to date, based on Firefox, but without Mozilla getting a cent.



I don't see the point of that. I like Chrome, it solves all of my problems well and it has top notch security too. I like the integrations it has with gsuite, etc.

If I'm going to switch for ideological purposes I'm going to need to see a browser that can actually follow through on its ideology.


So, in reality, it had nothing to do with the CEO and all to do with the fact that you don't care?


I feel like people are responding to my posts based on reading half a sentence or something. I don't really understand what's so hard to get about this. As I said elsewhere:

1. I use Chrome because Chrome works best for me

2. People are proposing I use Firefox because Firefox has a mission that people want to align with

3. Firefox has terrible leadership and can not execute on their mission, I am not switching browsers to one that's run by an utter failure unless they either build a much better browser or they fire the fool who has put them in this position

This is not complicated. If you're asking me to use a worse product (from my perspective) for ideological reasons, which I actually align with, then using that product had better actually advance that ideology - something I do not believe Mozilla is capable of doing while their current CEO is sitting. I have then expressed why I believe the CEO is incapable and a failure. Saying "But Google's CEO is bad" doesn't change that - I'm not using Chrome because of ideological reasons.

This seems insane to have to spell out repeatedly.

edit: I think Dang consolidated the posts - thanks, I realized that it was getting egregiously repetitive.
