I'm still of the opinion that we need an organisational fork of Mozilla, preferably not domiciled in the US.

We have technical forks like librewolf, that's not what I'm asking for. I'm asking for new stewards of the upstream code. Although perhaps if the forks want to consider how they'd become a hard fork, with an organisational structure that would work too.

Mozilla is a product of it's surroundings. It's surroundings was silicon valley and well 🤷‍♀️

@onepict that's what PaleMoon did: went hard-fork when Mozilla droped XUL, and they've been maintaining the code and adding support for more recent standards, without deprecating the old ones. It could benefit from a bit of an UI polish, but with my latest checks it's definitely looking like my next fallback when Firefox goes off the deep end.

@onepict yep, just another VC money seeking hustle. Like so many other SillyCon Valley denizens, they were great at spending money and poor at producing anything good.
