I could care less about Mozilla. Supporting for profit businesses is kind of silly as they will never support you. Buy something that you like but don't have blind brand loyalty. You should serve yourself first.

I agree with the sentiment, but in this case Mozilla is a non-profit.

And before someone jumps in.. Yes, Mozilla Corporation is technically for profit, but it's 100% owned by the non-profit Mozilla Foundation.

Clearly they want profit or else they would be running a fund raiser. I personally don't see Mozilla as a nonprofit in reality. Same story with OpenAI

I mean, it's not just a thing you can call yourselves, there's a legal definition. There's no way to pay money out of a nonprofit into your pocket without committing embezzlement.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

If you work for a nonprofit, you can be paid a salary; if you control a nonprofit, you can pay higher salaries to yourself and/or your friends.

Yep. At which point that becomes embezzlement is super vague, but presumably it would be at some point. If you're just a little loose with self compensation as opposed to potentially sinking the organisation, though, it would be hard to prosecute you.

This also goes for the feed-the-starving-kids type nonprofits. I'm aware of examples that spend most of their budget on management and marketing IRL.

IANAL

Yep, start by learning that the expression is "I couldn't care less" so you don't come across as an idiot
