A comment on Mozilla lays off 70. Parent comment

I found a UX quirk that bothered me.

I documented it, proposed a solution with my own justifications for why it would be better, and submitted a bug report.

Feedback from Moz, the work done on it, the patches created, and the release plan for it were all done in the open and I could track it.

The change I suggested was implemented and is now out.

Be the change you want to see... only Firefox/Mozilla would do this in such an open way.

Sure, no process is perfect. Don't let perfect be the enemy of good.

The multilingual thing sounds like a big problem for people that rely on that.

My comment was directed to your other complaints about UX quirks.
