> Watching Mozilla leadership drive Mozilla into the ground over the last 8-10 years has been like watching a bus accident in slow motion.
So, I don't really know the context of the stuff you're writing about, if you would please indulge me.

To see it wither away because of people angry with what are, in the grand scheme of things, minor mistakes, is a shame.ĮDIT: And lest you think I am embellishing about trivial complaints, there was a rant last week on r/Firefox that Mozilla was allegedly conspiring to hide Gecko's source code because we self-host our primary repo and bug tracking instead of using GitHub, despite the fact that the Mozilla project predates GitHub by a decade. But what concerns me about this is that Mozilla is such an important voice in shaping the future of the internet. And if Mozilla doesn't make it through this next phase, I can always find another job. I'm certainly not the first person on the planet whose employer has been on the receiving end of vitriol.
People want to continue flogging us for these things while giving other companies (who have made their own mistakes, often much more consequential than ours, would never be as open about it, and often learn nothing) a relatively free pass. Did we apologize? Did we learn anything? Did we work to prevent it happening again? Really? That's what's got you bent out of shape? Stuff like, to paraphrase, "Look at the corporate doublespeak in that press release. OTOH, sometimes it just seems unreasonable and absurd. Yes, as a non-profit, we should be held to higher standards, but not impossible standards. One thing that always frustrates me a bit whenever Mozilla comes up on HN or elsewhere is that we are always held to impossibly high standards.
