hot take: if this is the kind of cash it takes to sustain the web, maybe we should kill it and start again from first principles? RSS forever, or fuck it, I dunno, JSON over Gopher? It didn’t cost a billion dollars to invent any of the things we like, and it’s bullshit that something as petty as money is the thing holding us hostage here. https://danfabulich.medium.com/all-four-major-web-browsers-are-about-to-lose-80-of-their-funding-0e42ceb358f1

@joeycastillo Like tbh mozilla could have done differently if they dared to refuse google money. The other ones being either safari (it has fucking apple behind its not going anywhere) or chromium-based.

The problem was more with Google becoming such a dominant force they dictated standards.
