oh noes! I've been blocked by the point-evading poster that runs @firefoxwebdevs!

after trying (rather gently) to try highlight to them that their continued evasion irks a lot of fedi users (many of whom are keenly aware of the patterns of abuse), they went "...who? me?!"

then I posted "hmm, your sudden silence (while posting elsewhere) kinda speaks loudly"

they *huffily* replied

3 toots later I'm blocked!

oh woe is me, whatsoever shall I do

the thread's up in public, feel free to check

@froztbyte @firefoxwebdevs I guess Jake is having some trouble coping with the fact that his job is to be a mouthpiece for the people ruining society.

(Edit: fixed name.)

@theorangetheme @froztbyte @firefoxwebdevs I would like to believe that, but

@davidgerard @theorangetheme @froztbyte @firefoxwebdevs What gets me is how the AI bubble is looking ready to pop, the stocks are taking a bath and deals are starting to unwind, but #AI is the hill #Mozilla is going to die on.

At least they are consistent in their ability to be on the trailing edge of whatever the latest hype may be.

@reflex @davidgerard @theorangetheme @froztbyte @firefoxwebdevs

You know how there's always a sucker holding the bag at the end of every con? I feel like Firefox is that, for AI.

It's like with anything hot, by the time your boomer relative says it, it's dead and has been for years, but the carcass is still at Bernie's and miraculously sitting up.

@eldersea @davidgerard @theorangetheme @froztbyte @firefoxwebdevs I think Google money made them too fat, they don't need to listen to their actual user base because their salaries get paid no matter what.

@reflex @eldersea @davidgerard @theorangetheme @firefoxwebdevs https://stateof.mozilla.org/ has some detail

you have to guard your eyes against the rather horrendous antidesign made the taste for paper

but once you get into the details you also see that moz is >=$1.4b flush

which ..... is a tad beyond fat

State of Mozilla 2025

Doing for AI what we did for the web

@froztbyte @reflex @davidgerard @theorangetheme @firefoxwebdevs

I saw this the other day, just...LMAO.
