The web is dead, and its fetid corpse persists only as the layer of goop that Google scrapes between its servers and your screen. Anyone who still believes that Mozilla will save the web is a fool. diff --git a/content/blog/Firefox-the-embarassment-of-FOSS.md b/content/blog/Firefox-the-embarassment-of-FOSS.md @@ -36,7 +36,7 @@ In the time since my last article on the subject, Mozilla has: The most interesting things they've been involved in in the past few years are Rust and Servo, and they fired most or all of their engineers involved in both.
