On: Leaving Mozilla

Some mozilla software developer I guess.

They still have not fixed their build system. Meson/ninja or cmake would be alternatives. Nothing to have them abandon mozconfig ... this is legacy code. The rest of the world moved on. Mozilla lives in the past.

FWIW the Firefox build instructions [1] look a lot saner to me than the Chromium build instructions [2].

And one would hope they stay there, because all the newer stuff is far more user-hostile.

Could not agree more. I am honestly confused by the need for more than what FF/Librewolf offers and have been actively doing frontend for a long time. Plus no hassle with uBlock. And their Focus mobile browser is nice. I have the same complaints about their leadership as most but at least I feel I have some autonomy with their browser.
