  • Looks like contributor is busy with work. Always the risk with open source. If things aren’t raised in a reasonable manner, I can imagine the temptation is to follow it up with a middle finger.

    Many seemed to care about it enough to bash it, but not enough to create and maintain a fork. They just want to boss it over the maintainer.






  • The measley non Google portion of revenue is 81m dollar. If you pay a top dev 200k, you could pay 100 top devs 20m and still have 60m to play with.

    This is even before considering a Bing/Yahoo/Ecosia deal.

    Mozilla will be fine, but they’ll likely need to be leaner. Lay offs will likely play a part in that. Just got to hope they size and structure it right.




  • The fact they were willing to try it says all it needs to about them. They only stopped because of complaints.

    Your argument is like saying Unity game engine is fine because they rolled back on the changes. Nope.

    Tenacity is much more trustworthy for me.

    Could you elaborate on the harder to use? It was a fork so should be pretty similar. They overhauled the build stuff to make it easier to build on multiple systems.









  • You ain’t wrong. The level of arrogance stinks. Especially when the author put effort into documenting the sources etc.

    There do appear to be a lot of these know-it-all-but-contribute-little types around.

    Maybe a few are missing, but simply asking, and I’m sure they’ll provide. If someone wants a better build system, they could volunteer to do it themselves.
