"Wasting resources on making even smaller special purpose web browsers integrate with the engine is not a move for a company that has been struggling with a lack of independent funding for years now."

So says the narrative. Mozilla has money, but prefer using it for C-Level salaries : Mitchell Baker raised her salary from 2.5M$ to 7M$ within 4 years, all the while laying-off developers and spending a shitload of money on seminaries and others BS expenses. Meanwhile, the market share of Firefox dropped.

And I assume you have noticed that privacy is not their main concern.

Such a pity because Phoenix/Firebird/Firefox brought a lot to the Web. But I guess this happens when Corporate people take over any organisation.

Yeah playing the whole corporate game really corrupted Mozilla. When you join them you start to think like them. And then it's game over.

It was US tax issues that forced them to go corporate but as a result of the Google deal. So they tricked them into going corporate.

Seminaries? Kagi turns up nothing. Could you explain?

Who do you think writes the Book of Mozilla? Making a web browser requires a large supply of priests.

Except for Internet Explorer.

Perhaps they meant seminars?
