schestowitz | I get some flak today for my remarks about Firefox | Oct 27 20:31 |
schestowitz | "when you take $ from MS they will always try to demand more Influence or they cut their funds.They will corrupt Mozilla. " http://joindiaspora.com/posts/682577 | Oct 27 20:32 |
TechrightsBot | @: | Oct 27 20:32 |
schestowitz | The financial dependence on Microsoft, for example, is more troubling than on Google (GSoC). | Oct 27 20:32 |
schestowitz | "Mozilla should select their default search engine by good randomness" | Oct 27 20:33 |
schestowitz | Sorry, thought you used chrome.https://joindiaspora.com/posts/682577 | Oct 27 20:33 |

schestowitz | Chrome is a search bar (ads)with a browser 'around' it | Oct 27 20:33 |
MinceR | isn't it better if they depend on multiple sources? | Oct 27 20:34 |
schestowitz | who, FF? | Oct 27 20:50 |
schestowitz | IIRC, mandriva used konq to refer to ask or something | Oct 27 20:50 |
MinceR | Mozilla | Oct 27 20:53 |
schestowitz | ah | Oct 27 21:01 |
schestowitz | well... good question | Oct 27 21:01 |
schestowitz | IMHO, Mozilla could make its own meta-search | Oct 27 21:01 |
schestowitz | and label it approppriately | Oct 27 21:02 |
schestowitz | But it would not get the Google kickbacks | Oct 27 21:02 |
MinceR | browser-side metasearch? | Oct 27 21:02 |
schestowitz | IIRC, Mozilla depended on that money heavily | Oct 27 21:02 |
MinceR | i think so too | Oct 27 21:02 |
schestowitz | Google gave them a wad of cash around the very same Chrome was announced | Oct 27 21:02 |
schestowitz | as a way of perhaps saying, " we make our own browser, but worry not, we won't leave you to rot" | Oct 27 21:02 |
schestowitz | MinceR: IIRC: | Oct 27 21:03 |
schestowitz | From that time | Oct 27 21:03 |
schestowitz | The Lizard wrangler tingie.. | Oct 27 21:03 |
schestowitz | She said they did not depend on Google | Oct 27 21:03 |
schestowitz | And emphasised this | Oct 27 21:03 |
MinceR | ic | Oct 27 21:03 |
schestowitz | But the statement is public | Oct 27 21:03 |
schestowitz | They are a foundation or some kind | Oct 27 21:03 |
MinceR | what do they depend on, then? | Oct 27 21:03 |
schestowitz | So they showed like IIRC... 70% of their revenue coming from Google | Oct 27 21:03 |
schestowitz | And I didn't hear much about Google paying them since | Oct 27 21:03 |
schestowitz | And many high--prized mozilla employees left | Oct 27 21:04 |
schestowitz | MinceR: the search thing | Oct 27 21:04 |
schestowitz | That by default it links to Google, in the address bar too | Oct 27 21:04 |
schestowitz | They got millions this way | Oct 27 21:04 |
schestowitz | One million a yera can pay 20 people's wages | Oct 27 21:04 |
schestowitz | I think Mozilla is less than 100 people | Oct 27 21:04 |
schestowitz | And IIRC from office footage I saw the core team is a few dozens | Oct 27 21:05 |
schestowitz | I think their turnogver/income was somewhere around $5 | Oct 27 21:05 |

schestowitz | Real proponents of GNU/Linux oughtn't help Microsoft's recommended version of GNU/Linux, which is also taxed by Microsoft. There are many projects more worthy of volunteer effort. These projects are not coordiated by people's on Microsoft payroll, either (indirectly). | Oct 27 21:54 |
