Genuinely, it's nice that Mozilla's user base is so passionate! There's three multi-hundred-comment submissions in the top 50 posts of HN in just the last 24 hours.
I just wish some of the conversation wasn't so hyperbolic. For anyone not as passionate who may have been on the fence about Firefox before reading all of the blogs, news articles, comments, tweets, etc., they sure as hell aren't going to make the switch now. Ironically, the death knell for Firefox might not be from the new CEO, but from the users convincing everyone to stay on Chrome.
- dpark 9mo agoI’m not convinced that most of the passionate denouncers are actually part of the Mozilla user base. There’s a lot of “I can’t believe Mozilla would do this, which is why I’m going to keep using [esoteric browser] instead!” I don’t understand the backlash, either. It seems like a bunch of nothing. New CEO is on the AI bandwagon? Wow. This is both shocking and offensive to my sensibilities.
