Can someone sum up the video… Some bot maybe.

Partial summary:

  • Firefox has tiny market share ergo Mozilla has failed
  • Firefox claims to protect user’s privacy, but also has deals with Google that form the bulk of its income, to route users to Google’s privacy-invading search
  • Firefox doesn’t work as well as Chrome
  • Mozilla foundation gives money to activist organizations maybe unrelated to software development
  • Mozilla has attempted several failed projects of dubious worthwhileness

It’s not an uninformative video, but it’s also very high-level and with a heavy opinion to fact ratio, I think. I started taking mental notes partway through about some things I had issue with factually, but I’ll admit I sort of stopped caring most of the way through.

Dude… I stepped in to what you should have done, i.e. just summarize the content of the video, because that’s the way to make a reasonable post on a platform where you’re not the boss and can’t just order people to watch whether they want to or not. Are you this rude to people in real life?

I don’t know anything about you as a person and it’s hard to judge anything from text. But the way you’ve approached this comment thread comes across as mad rude, yes. And I think that’s why you’re getting such a negative reaction (more so than anything to do with Firefox).

If you were at a party or in some group chatting, and you had a point to make but said people weren’t allowed to talk to you on the topic until they’d completely watched a 15-minute video, and people mostly said they didn’t want to do that, but some person did go off and watch around 10 minutes of the video and came back and started trying to explain to everyone some of what was in it, and you just turned to him and said, “You miss some important points,” and then turned away without saying anything else — taken as a whole that’d be pretty rude, right? Or do you not think so?

Good explaination. I think we assume people understand social contexts but some people dont… and they mean no harm, but they just dont think the same way. Then its really good to show how others may understand the situation.

Well, then it’s great that you decided to add these missing points in your comment!

RE text: Agreed. I have started a humble campaign (read "one man army 😁) to try to address this insane trend. Joining forces is sincerely apperciated!

This time I’m saving this link. Thanks brother or sister :)

Ha. I haven’t tested it it out for accuracy. It might be complete BS.
