And this only just after they enabled a whole raft of add-ons in their mobile browser that have already stripped away so much shit from my daily browsing experience.

I switched last year when Google entered their new phase of ad tracker evil and I bet I wasn't the only one. Feels to me like Firefox fucked with the money and they're being brought to heel.

What? They're laying off people working on a metaverse platform, mozilla.social, and other assorted products nobody cares about. They're doing exactly what everyone said they should do, slimming down and focusing on Firefox

fediverse*

I'm sorry but what word are you trying to replace? I can't tell

They misinterpreted "metaverse platform, mozilla.social" as a single item in the list, not as two items.

For anyone who isn't aware, Mozilla has a thing called Mozilla Hubs that could be considered a metaverse product

A I see, thank you for clarifying,.I was genuinely confused

Grammatically it can be properly read either way, but I think you're right that's probably how they meant it.

Metaverse. mozilla.social is the fediverse

I know, they had also opened a thing called Mozilla hubs, something I consider metaverse product, like the other person said, I am aware mozilla.social is a fediverse platform
