I have little to add but to concur that the whole thing was very strange and a bit off-putting.
xedrac•6mo ago
This rant sums up my thoughts exactly. I want firefox to be the most functional tool it can be. Not some presumptuous furry animal that is emotionally and politically charged.
concinds•6mo ago
It’s off-putting even if you don’t mind the ideology. It’s a kind of childish, emotionally-stunted but emotions-obsessed, sterile and plastic but “self-expression”-obsessed, creepy vibe.
soiltype•6mo ago
hell, i'm actually even ok with a browser openly having a political stance[1] and i also hate the way firefox communicates. the colorway thing (not the word itself; that's standard design terminology the OP ranter isn't aware of) especially is disgusting. literally no-one is empowered by selecting a color theme for their browser. i know disabled artists and other "independent voices" and i promise none of them is saying "i finally feel free since i switched to firefox and got to make my browser green." it's quite offensive all around.

[1] the OP rant is also pretty obviously wrong in assuming the non-mozilla companies they support don't have/push political stances

I'd call this a business failing to simulate humanity, but it reminds me of one time I went jewelry shopping and the salesperson started explaining the different vibes conducted by the various stones.

We need more roasts like this. West coast developers export too much woowoo.

> Mozilla now only seems to speak using creepy, gibberish lunatic language.

I think the reason is that Mozilla used to be a tech-focused company, speaking in a precise technical manner about concrete things in the real world.

Gradually the management and C-suite were taken over by people who are completely disconnected from the products and their userbase. They speak in corporate jargon, and their speciality is performative theater and conning people out of their money. This kind of corporate culture has a lot in common with politics, largely responsible for the enshittification of society.
