I think we have far bigger problems than Brendan Eich in the tech industry. Far more people have suffered or died in recent years from tax cuts and austerity lobbied by by some of the biggest billionaires (i.e. Zuckerberg, Gates, Ballmer, Musk, Bezos) than from the causes Eich has funded.
Can we truly call ourselves humanitarians when we continue to lap up everything that big tech gives to us?
At best, we're hypocrites for cancelling Eich whilst simultaneously sweeping issues like worker exploitation, political/medical disinformation, erosion of privacy, etc from the rest of big tech under the rug.

Literally 90% of lemmy users are trying to get out of the hands of big tech and try to minimize the affects of their consumption of technology, I don't user any social media outside of Linkedin to get jobs, Whatsapp (I live in south america so I'm forced to use It), youtube (I don't have a excuse for this one except its not easy to stop using) and things on fediverse which I consider ethical for now.
Also just use firefox smh. Its good and awesome and open.
