Can we talk about recent Mozilla layoffs?


Hi HN,

Mozilla was, is, and hopefully will be, a fundamental part of the web.

The recent round of layoffs in Mozilla is an important news for our community that deserve to be discussed. I saw a couple of new hitting the front page, and both were flagged to the obliviom.

This does not allow us to discuss the issue properly and it is a shame.

Can we somehow repost the news and have an healthy discussion about it?

Thanks

We should, my only gripe about the recent Mozilla layoffs is that after all the funding they had from Google, they didn't focus on creating products which make money.

I know there is Pocket and a VPN but IMO I don't think its enough.

There was a couple long lived stories about it. General consensus was they should concentrate on Firefox and stop wasting money on other stuff. Later ones were probably just flagged as dupes.
