Mozilla spends many millions a year on devs for their browser.
If they stop doing that, LibreWolf won’t have any patches or updates.
The community is t going to take over from mozilla.

Yeah but its a soft fork, inherently dependent on mozilla.
Mozilla is circling the drain, determined to drive away the last of its users.


Sorry this is just plain wrong and there’s no evidence of this at all.
People have been saying this since the invention of the comptometer.
Anyone who’s job can be replaced by an LLM isnt producing any value.
For the rest of us it’s an incremental improvement at best.
“the community taking over” is not the whole point behind open source.
There’s plenty of open source projects that need 100s of developers with niche credentials and experience to maintain.
If mozilla dies, and that’s the current trajectory, then ladybug or similar will be our refuge.
