        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?
