On the "Mozilla" subject. Let's face it, we don't have a mature and truly open browser nowadays. Despite the fact that Mozilla exist as foundation they're on the quest for revenue. And this is the main problem.
We need an open browser which is not driven by revenue, backed by foundation, and truly Open Source. And it must be just a browser, no bloatware, no tracking, no commercialization at all.
The web is a public place and we need a browser for public.

@lig yeah I think this is too utopian.

Even though it’s a browser, by a non profit, they still have to pay people for what they do, they also have other bills to pay as well.

@lig this isn’t my point? They still have to make money somehow

@louiscouture if non-profit seeks revenue in the same place as corporations do this non-profit becomes for-profit. At least, in the way they act which makes no difference for user.
That's my issue. If it's non-profit it could try other ways to generate revenue and, imo, it should.

@lig non profit needs money to pay for various expenses. To create a browser isn’t free. You have to make money in order to pay for your expenses.

@lig @louiscouture What are you proposing as an alternative then?
