Users will be able to download their data or migrate their account to another Mastodon instance, if they choose.
I am shocked. Shocked! /s
You're viewing part of a thread.
No. It's trying something. If company's get punished for investing and trying something, others won't even try in future. I respect they tried. If I was in charge, I wouldn't have bothered.
I wonder, how increasing CEO pay year by year worked out for them.
Certainly, definitely not in growing the user base, but also not in revenue that would make up it.
Separate issue entirely. I'm talking specifically about Fediverse investment and why that was the final straw.
I thought the discussion was about that and not a "I hate Mozilla" greatest hits.
You can always throw in that Google fund them and a 10 year old bug that hasn't been resolved if that was your purpose.
I guess ranting can help you feel better, so I hope it helped.
You did not read the entire post you first replied to, did you?
I read it, just had nothing to add.
For the record, I disagree with the AI funding, CEO pay and pocket stuff. It doesn't make me hate them though. They build the biggest open source alternative to Google dictating standards for web. That's massive. I strongly dislike google for a multitude of reasons and hating a company that challenges that is a strange position to take. If Firefox goes, we're mega fucked.
Maybe place your anger with the actual bad actors in the browser space.
