End of Japanese community at Mozilla due to the introduction of AI-based translation.

The community members have expressed disappointment and frustration that their long term volunteer efforts and local knowledge were being replaced by machine translation, which they felt did not match the quality of human provided support.

This is why Mozilla sucks so much, they are going crazy like rest of the industry.

Every day, Mozilla leadership wakes up and thinks: "How can we piss off the tiny number of remaining users who are our biggest fans?" , all while C suites get millions in salary and add AI slop everywhere.

Waiting desperately for Ladybird. We need alternatives. I used Firefox, when it was Mozilla still and the version number was <1. But I am so fed up with Mozilla nowadays.

@white_gecko @jdb78 @nixCraft @servo isn't servo aimed at kiosks so it won't be ever a full blown browser for desktop?

@JoannaCanFixIT @jdb78 @nixCraft @servo The website says:
“Servo is a web browser rendering engine written in Rust, with WebGL and WebGPU support, and adaptable to desktop, mobile, and embedded applications.” So yes, but no–there could be a servo based full blown browser for the desktop.

@JoannaCanFixIT @white_gecko @jdb78 @nixCraft @servo no, at the moment they are focused on the engine, not a polished browser.
They are working as best as they can with their available resources and you can already test it https://servo.org/download/
In the future there could be other browsers based on the engine like the are many chromium/blink browsers nowadays and some Firefox/gecko ones
