I moved away from Mozilla months ago and have been quite happy with Opera. The conflict is my wife is happy with Firefox and, thank you very much, does not care to learn to use another browser. Sometimes you just have to pick your battles.<br />Every time I use her computer I'm reminded that firefox is an inferior product.Shermhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07098953206824247173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-38070480304411422822014-12-12T10:49:26.790-05:002014-12-12T10:49:26.790-05:00The protest has already been forgotten, it is time...The protest has already been forgotten, it is time again to remember why to switch away from Mozilla!<br /><br />Post again on Twitter, Facebook or wherever, let people again know why it is necessary to stop using Mozilla products!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-75012668466670033602014-12-12T09:25:09.410-05:002014-12-12T09:25:09.410-05:00Jay, I haven't heard of that.

And companies make terrible branding ...Glen, sure. And companies make terrible branding (pun intended) decisions all the time - that's why Johnson & Johnson's response to the Tylenol scare is held up as an example of doing things right.<br /><br />The problem for the Mozilla Foundation is that they appear to be hypocrites, and even worse to be hypocrites that are rubbishing something REALLY important to the Open Source crowd (free speech/free association). The Open Source crowd was always their key customer base.<br /><br />The fact that they've done this to themselves while being tools for Hollywood will not buy them any friends with open sourcers.<br /><br />It's a huge own goal.<br /><br />But yeah - their company, their rules.

Which is the exact same verbiage Wikipedia is currently running for their beg-a-thon. Seems to me I want to remember some Dem fundraisers saying the same thing, too. Is $3 some special number that they figure most people will quickly part with? I guess maybe my tin foil is a bit too tight.....chiefjaybobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09542679872611726027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-45300218903784839502014-12-12T09:12:29.798-05:002014-12-12T09:12:29.798-05:00Hmmmmm.

And, as you noted in a previous post - when socialists get control of anything they usually run it into the ground as they are doing here. It's a win for everyone!<br /><br />Socialists and fascists employ the same tactics and in my opinion the differences between them are purely conversational. The SJW crowd are fools that will work with and follow any shyster willing to feed their egos.Glen Filthiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03256741311142364722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-2575395242957222442014-12-12T07:08:24.186-05:002014-12-12T07:08:24.186-05:00Speaking of which do you know anything about Puffi...Speaking of which do you know anything about Puffin?
