title should read adopt*

Ironic how the typo directly inverted the meaning.
will not adopt = will not use the new Firefox terms
will not adapt = will use the new Firefox terms exactly, without any rewording

But with some minor changes, like Firefox -> Thunderbird.
Btw, perfect use of "irony," it's so often misused.

Lol my dyslexic brain read it as adopt anyways.

Well, IIRC, TB isn't developed by Mozilla. They just "host" it.

Which is one more stupid thing from Mozilla. Imagine if, 10 years ago, they had made a combo of: Firefox, Thunderbird, email hosting, maybe some kind of online office thing and a drive, Sync... That could have been the ultimate productivity package for "Office" stuff inside one convenient subscription.
Instead we now have Office 365, Google Docs, and nothing more.

Add some better CEO/management to the mix, but yes.

I want separate apps that are really good at what they do, not a bunch of apps that kinda work together and are just okay. So I would much rather they focus on one thing and services around it. Such as:
Everything should be opt-in and privacy centered, and all of that can be browser extensions.

Don't give them subscription ideas, even mentioning subscriptions is dangerous!

Firefox is the kind of software where I would gladly pay $10 a month to support its development.
Dismantle Mozilla, give the money to Firefox, profit.

Exactly. I'd donate today if my money actually went to Firefox.

Nextcloud 😃 we have many nextcloud hosters
It is all that

So a bit like extending Mozilla Application Suite aka Seamonkey instead of focusing on standalone products?

LibreOffice: “I’m right here”
BuckenBerry@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1y
libreOffice is so ugly that every time I use it I get a strong urge to start using Microsoft edge

It really is a shame that it looks so terrible. It's a really solid office suite otherwise, but I agree that it's not a pleasure to use simply because of how ugly it is

They do. Well, I should say Thunderbird is also under the Foundation, but is developed by a separate subsidiary Corp (MZLA Tech Corp) than Firefox (Mozilla Corp).
