This is what you get when you sell your soul to Google and rely on your competitors funding for years on end.

And what does Mozilla of today have to show for it?

A self aggrandising, navel-gazing, tone deaf, hollow templated puff piece which will cause the unfortunate inevitable sad downfall of Mozilla.

There is almost nothing left of this once innovative company, resorting to present a facade as a cover while ignoring the real issue:

Not focusing on making a revenue generating product for over 10 years.

Also, repeat extremely tone deaf in Mozilla laying off their top engineers on Rust, Servo and Firefox and not a single mention of it in this post.

Looks like all those free years of Google money caught up with them.

Strong narcissism signals in her post. "It's all about me." The problem with her as CEO is about the incentives. She has literally no incentive to do anything other than continue to use the company as a vehicle for her social concerns. Building great products is a complete afterthought.
