Mozilla is bleeding and its attempts to appeal to Google, Apple, Facebook, Amazon and Microsoft. It won’t fool remaining users of Firefox; many Firefox users will leave (in droves), seeing that Mozilla is not what it publicly claims to be.

I'm glad someone gets the joke :)

I'm still just sort of blown away by the unanimously at-face-value reception. Like, I definitely didn't fully understand what was going on right off the bat, but it doesn't take a PhD in comparative political analysis to see that there's something hinky about it. And there are only like 2 other pages you can click on to get to the bottom of the mystery. For as firmly as the Lemmy userbase seems to believe themselves the final source of truth and wisdom, you'd think a few of them would've been able to overcome the puzzle.
