it's time to fork #Firefox and turn it into a cooperative-owned project.

cooperative membership is the element missing from FLOSS.

fuck the non-profit's faux neutrality when in truth it's just a broke doppelganger of the top-down structure of the corporatist kleptocracy.

make the project a cooperative where members --users and developers-- get to vote on the future of the project with their paid memberships and contributed labor.

Mozilla lays off 60 people, wants to build AI into Firefox

Memo details layoffs, “strategic corrections,” and a desire for “trustworthy” AI.

@hyc @blogdiva I loved Seamonkey for decades, until it fell so far behind that many very common sites wouldn't work with it any more. I abandoned it. I'd love to see it back up and running well again.

@smashedratonpress @blogdiva I still use it as my main desktop browser. It lags a bit on supporting sites like github but that usually catches up again. And integrated email and calendar are still killer features.
