With just a few days’ notice, Mozilla terminated my employment this month after leaving me hanging on leave without explanation for several months. My discrimination case against them therefore enters a new phase after this wrongful termination.

this week the chat has all been “Mozilla are going in the wrong direction , They’re selling out, they using AI, they’re hiring ad experts”. - all over xitter all over lemmy.
Now someone dug up this old story about teixeira Suing them, because he claims they demoted him because of cancer. A
With the scarcity of facts available at this stage , one thing we know is that both AI and advertising were championed by…. Texeira - ex of Microsoft, twitter and Facebook.
So, an alternate but equally plausible narrative, might be “Teixeira strayed to far into commercialisation, received a shitty performance review, and got moved out of his role”
Which accounts do you believe are witches paid shills?
Shill accusations are fun, because they can’t be disproven, and their weight is informed solely by the social capital of the person making the accusations.
Okay, your reply is kind of ironic because, in your defense of Mozilla, you’ve opened up new ways you find Mozilla to be bad. For example, "“Mozilla are going in the wrong direction , They’re selling out, they using AI, they’re hiring ad experts”
Either you believe Mozilla venturing into AI and ads are bad, or it’s good… but exposing it hurts Mozilla. Which?
Now someone dug up this old story about teixeira Suing them
Mozilla fired Teixeira a couple days ago. That’s not old.
both AI and advertising were championed by…. Texeira
I know you’re trying to get in a gotcha here, but according to Mozilla’s own testimony:
“[Teixeira] failed to adequately address the considerable concerns and feedback the Board and CEO raised regarding product strategy, including actively resisting requests that he engage in generative Artificial Intelligence (“GenAI”)”
with so many OOS projects out there in need of funding, so many devs roughing it up, you donate to the advertising company Mozilla that has zero cash needs, they give million dollar bonuses to their executives every year.
It’s truly wild how hard of a heel turn mozilla has taken. I’m going to cancel my recurring donations to them, and get off all of their products.
Why would you donate to a company? I assume you are talking about the non profit
Because they are a non profit which makes stuff one likes?

People are digging up a bunch of old shit right now
September 18, 2024 is “old shit”?
Well, it was already posted here, and i just saw an article from 2021 about something bad mozilla allegedly did
A few months ago, Steve Teixeira’s lawsuit became public knowledge, if that’s what you’re thinking of.
no, it was something else
It’s obviously orchestrated
Is Mozilla in on it too? Because they’re the ones who orchestrated laying off Steve Teixeira.

Yeah especially if you look on reddit, it’s a handful of accounts with a very concerted effort.
Don’t get me wrong it’s shitty behaviour, but it’s also fairly obviously some are getting paid to suddenly do this.

holy shit you donated money to these wackos?

Literally giving money to wacko rich executives
