Rules
While we are not an official Mozilla community, we have adopted the Mozilla Community Participation Guidelines as far as it can be applied to a bin.
Rules
-
Always be civil and respectful
Don't be toxic, hostile, or a troll, especially towards Mozilla employees. This includes gratuitous use of profanity. -
Don't be a bigot
No form of bigotry will be tolerated. -
Don't post security compromising suggestions
If you do, include an obvious and clear warning. -
Don't post conspiracy theories
Especially ones about nefarious intentions or funding. If you're concerned: Ask. Please don’t fuel conspiracy thinking here. Don’t try to spread FUD, especially against reliable privacy-enhancing software. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Show credible sources. -
Don't accuse others of shilling
Send honest concerns to the moderators and/or admins, and we will investigate. -
Do not remove your help posts after they receive replies
Half the point of asking questions in a public sub is so that everyone can benefit from the answers—which is impossible if you go deleting everything behind yourself once you've gotten yours.

I started to have access to a computer on a regular basis around late 1998/early 1999 at school. I remember a teacher installed Netscape on all the computers. I was intrigued, tried it and basically sticked with it until Netscape 8. Quickly after the release of Netscape 8, I learned about a new project based on it and called Firefox (1.0). The project mission really resonated with me and I decided to switch to Firefox as my default browser.
By discovering Firefox, I became more curious about the Web, development and open source in general. Fast forward to now, I'm still using Firefox (and other product from Mozilla) and I'm actively contributing to it :).
