    I just wish one could donate to firefox development specifically. Then they could rid it of all the advertisement and tracking stuff.

          Non-profit isn’t the same as not-for-profit

          Take American Red Cross

          They make bank on blood donations. Also, they take in way more than they put out.

            This smells like BS.

            Is mozilla non-profit, not-for-profit, or for-profit?

            You dont really know do you.

            “I dont like mozilla so ill just assume they must be profiteering assholes somehow”

            “Its the vibe of the thing”

              I only use Firefox. I’ve only used Firefox since 2000.

              They, by their own statements, are a 501( C )3, which is a non-profit, not a not-for-profit.

              Sit down.

                You seem to be able to google “mozilla non profit” but unable to elucidate whether it is in fact a non-profit and why that is so.

                Again, you’re offering hand wavy vibe based explanations as to why mozilla is “bad”. What exactly is the problem?

                  I have worked for non-profits.

                  They are completely allowed to make a profit.

                  You are mistakenly under the impression that I’m against Mozilla.

                  If you go back to my original comment, I merely explained what I explained here. Mozilla is a non-profit, not a not-for-profit.

                  You decided to take that as an attack on Mozilla, for some strange reason, and attacked me. I just turned that same energy back on you.

                  Did I ever attack Mozilla? Did you attack me?
