BTW I actually donate to Mozilla because I think it needs to survive
Donations to Mozilla go to the Foundation, not to Mozilla Corp., which is the one developing FF. So you aren’t fueling FF development.
Anyway, I’ve read elsewhere that they’re doing fine also without donations: they get 7M$/year in donations and their CEO gets 5M$/year. It doesn’t look like they’re actually starving…
You may want to think twice before wasting your money:
I did not know that. I meant to keep Firefox afloat, much like I donate to Wikipedia. Good to know then (there are other important projects to donate too)!
I didn’t touch the comment above (and is at +2 right now but I am downvoting this whining about downvotes. It’s just fake internet points. Crying about being downvotes is bad form, nobody cares.
I’m not crying, I couldn’t care less. It’s actually the opposite, in this case. I find it funny, as it’s just a symptom of how people become defensive about Mozilla.

Wow, OK.

Thanks!!!
Yeah. I consider Wikipedia the most important piece of the internet. Actual, it’s the only website I’d save from the internetcalypse.
LOL, here come the downvotes, as usual.
Can anyone point me towards something I wrote which is factually false?
